Advent Calendar Swap

I signed up for Caddi's Advent Calendar Swap and I'm pleased to say I received the email today with my swap partners address and things she likes. I've started to put something fab together already...I love Christmas! 

UPDATE: Here's the finished calendar, wrapped and ready to send! Is anyone else taking part?

Also - there's mail going out on Monday to the following lovely people:

 Kendra, Shannon, Petrova, Shannah, Laura, Cheryl, Maria and Angel

Incoming

Well this post has been a few days delayed. This is the mail I've received over the past week or so. The clocks have changed and it's completely thrown me with all the darkness! I set about opening this mail this morning, in daylight, for the photos! It was nice to relax and read the letters, you guys are fab! Massive thanks.

 My friend who's recently moved to Guernsey sent me these 3 beautiful felt decorations.

 Thank you Cheryl! I loved the handmade envelope and decors...and got covered in glitter!

Cute stickers and a fab card / letter! Lovely to hear from a new pen pal from Scotland!

 Thanks Kendra! Hey guess what it's Hello Kitty's birthday today ha ha, seriously it is! I got an email that said so!

 Love that you have these cards for your initial!

I also got a great letter from Laura, I like how you shared lots about yourself in the ways you did! These are really cute postcards too.

 Shannah - my mum-to-be package is so thoughtful and wonderful. Thank you doesn't come close. It must have taken you ages to make them. I don't know how to knit but love handmade knitted items.  

 I know the little one will absolutely adore these and I suspect it's going to be a very cold winter if Autumn's anything to go by.

 I cannot wait to wrap her up in these and have a big cuddle - not long now. I'll be sure to take lots of pics of her in and enjoying them! You have talent Shannah!

Lovely Letters Task 3

I find myself getting distracted very easily at the moment. Like my brain is going very very fast and I'm thinking about lots and lots of things to do, things to prepare, organise, clean, move, throw out...I find the only thing that can help me STOP even if for a while is to do something crafty and check out my fab friends blogs. Luckily in my time of need I saw that Task 3 had been announced for Lovely Letters so I shall do my list now and then it's ready for when I receive task 2's questions. Then I can answer them and whisk off the post to the inspiring Tilly in Australia.



Happy Halloween

The Skeleton Snot Sundae was actually the nicest ice cream ever! All lemony and limey, zingy! I'd definitely recommend a trip to this diner!
