She made a list (and very probably checked it twice!) then let the 'swappers' know where their packages were to be sent. She requested that they all be sent by the end of this month...and here I have to confess to just going to make the deadline (HONEST- it will be posted on Monday, Cheri!)
LADKYIS on the other hand, wasn't so tardy and yesterday I picked a package up from the Post Office......and when I got it home and
Lots of lovely chipboard, flowers,stars, hearts and frames...and also those gorgeous little rosettes which Ladkyis had made herself from map pages!
"Lucky you" I hear you say....BUT , look what else was enclosed:
......a copy of one of the WORLD BOOK NIGHT books (and one that I haven't read either!). I had hoped to start it last night, but didn't quite get around to it.
Thank you so much, Ladkyis for such a lovely package...and thank you Sian for having such a brilliant idea!
Hoping the sun shines for the UK Bank Holiday weekend.....and wishing everyone a fun weekend, wherever in the world you are!
Thanks for dropping by!
Take care of you
Alison xx
How lovely! Glad your happy mail has made you so ..., well, happy!
ReplyDeleteA lovely package,Alison....especially those rosettes.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great selection. I hope you manage to get some scrapping done.
ReplyDeleteOooh look what you got! I've got my swap and my parcel is on its way to Deb in America. Such a great idea!
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking there will be lots of new tidbits and treasures showing up on your pages in the very near future.
ReplyDeleteI've read that book. It is pretty fun.
ReplyDeleteHow lucky to get a bonus gift as well! Lucky girl.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you like it! I had one of those moments after I posted, you know, where you panic a bit and wonder if the recipient will like the book or if there was enough stuff, were the colours right, was it awful to put home made stuff in....
ReplyDeleteSo glad you like it!!!
That looks like such a lovely package. Lucky you! x
ReplyDeleteSian dies come up with brilliant ideas! Your package looks delightful, especially the hand rolled roses. What fun!
ReplyDeleteOh what fun stuff is going back and forth. Love the bits and bobs, and when you get tired of crafting you can sit and read. Lovely swap!
ReplyDeleteyep, I'm still checking that list and trying to make sure I get a note of all those lovely packages so I can do another post about them! Your parcel looks very "you"..I don't think Ladkyis had anything to worry about there :)
ReplyDeleteOh what a lovely swap of goodies you have there
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely lot of pretty things, those map roses look fab.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like you have lots of lovely things there to play with x
ReplyDeleteI'm a bit late catching up, Alison, but what a lovely package you received. Have fun with it an hope the book is a good read x
