I am the luckiest crafty girl in the entire world! And I have the most generous, wonderful crafty girl friends! I had a bunch o' stuff to post today that I've been working on, but I decided to scrap all that and share some of the amazing things I got in the mail in the past week. I loooooove getting looooooove in the mail. Thank you eveyone!!!
A package from the Netherlands! And two from closer to home!
This card is from my International pen pal Holly - made with Dutch stamps! Isn't it lovely? So much work and each tile is set with UTEE to look shiny and beautiful. I am absolutely in love with this card. The inside is just as special and detailed. It's my first card from overseas - how wonderful!
This card is from Teadub...my partner in crime...It is expertly colored with her Copic markers and is a sweet and simple looking card...but...
There was a surprise on the inside!!! I wasn't expecting this at all!!! I think I actually made a noise when I saw it - a squeal of delight! LOVE it.
The final item is a handmade bracelet from my crazy friend Corky! We have been pen pals since we met at San Jose Rubberama about 15 years ago! Yes....she made this! Who knew shrink plastic could be this incredible? How cool...and how lucky am I?
You have some great, kind, and generous crafting friends!
