A Few Wonderful Surprises


Pat sent me a lovely gift in the mail. She said that when she saw them, she thought of me. I received a frames package and stickers for Christmas. Of course, the frames are embossed and very old fashioned looking, which is going to be perfect for the journal that I will be making for my family's older pics. Thanks so much Pat! Your package will be in the mail as of today. I made a few things, and also bought you something Irish...mum is the word, so just teasing you with some tidbits about it. Hope you like the package and thanks again!
Also, Bunny from The Creative Hare told me that I won her giveaway. She had three prizes, and I was one of the three people picked. How nice is that! You can see the announcement at the link to her blog. What a lovely way to begin my day! Thanks so much Bunny, and what a sweetheart you are for writing me this morning and telling me! I can't wait to see what I won!

I was busy making Pat's surprise and also making a card for a blogger friend, so of course I can't show you the card...Lots of hush hush things happening around here...LOL My Cuttlebug is finally arriving today, late by a week, as they sent it to Antrim instead of Donegal, as I told you in a previous post. I will take a pic and post it tomorrow. I have several cards that need to be embossed, so the timing is perfect.
Have a wonderful Monday! Gee, another week...Time is really flying!

Hello Micky, I'm proud that you visit me, it is nice to have friends from the west of our lady Europe, and more when the you are a teacher, but I'm working as librarian in child library the part of our Civic library in Pula, and gues I will be retired at the end of this year. So I will have really time for all my creativity. With regards from Loredana.
