today -- be sure to check her out - lovely home dec today
and soon she will be posting all the pics she received from all
the swappers-- It was instant joy and love at the same time !!
These darling notecards were made by cindy
of http://cindygrubb.com- as well as the beautiful calendar
picture below - her original artwork is so beautiful -
and she uses some of my favorite scriptures . Visit her and
see all the many wonderful things she sells
I feel especially blessed to have some of her work -- Thank you Cindy
they are especially beautiful and a wonderful surprise !!
As well as all the sweet goodies that were to follow.


I love the peace sign , she sent -it is already hanging from
favorite snowman's hands - Just look at the vintage , boot ,
snowman and angel -- love them , vintage ornies are hard to find here

I love the notecards she made -- love the cherry

designs -too.

a view of January - each month's page is more beautiful

than the one before, if that can be possible.

WHEN I CAME TO THIS PACKAGE -i HEARD A JINGLE -

BUT WASN'T PREPARED FOR THIS

WONDERFUL "SNOWMAN " - WHAT A DELIGHT-

Oh - I feel really spoiled now , so many wonderful things

He is about -eleven inches tall and under a glass dome

that alows yoou to hang him if you want

My bad picture taking doesn't do him justice -

It truly was love at first sight. The wreath he holds is beaded

and says hope and he has wired arms , baby button mouth

and a sweet little cap - He is all glittered and has

snow , as well as glass glitter . His base is too adorable

with sweet touches .

Well what a delightful swap = my friend Teri - sent me my first swap

items ever , sweet snowmen cones -beautiful large and

embellished victorian one and also a more traditionl

one - oh so beautiful work -- I was so surprised - had never seen any

before last year - and I shop in lotsa great places in the greater

Atlanta area -- they were so original - gotta find those pics .

, when I signed up for VIV's swap -- was a very new and green

blogger , then --This world of blogging took

me by surprise - what wonderful sweet

friends I have come to know . Well still creating for a couple of friends -

gotta get them in the mail asap or they will be NEW YEAR
