Hi everyone! How was your Christmas?! Today I managed to find a few minutes to take some photos of the amazing mail and gifts sent for Charlotte, daddy and I! This is from Caddi's Advent Calendar swap that I took part in where you received a present to open each day.
These goodies came from Ria in America - I'm totally blown away with the chocolate goodies. They're going to be enjoyed so much!
If you could contact me with your address I'd like to send a thank you
(the ink had smudged on the parcel). Hehee this little chap is now on my tree!
I opened this in the early hours of the morning when Charlotte was awake. It was so lovely to see this clay kit and I have a day in mind (when my sister-in-law is here with an extra pair of hands!) to do it. I also put the cd on straight away and sung Charlotte to sleep. I'm really bad at singing, she must have been tired!
The felt crafts and notecards are really cute. I will be sending you a thank you very soon- so glad you included a note so I could track you Emily!
Hehee this survival kit made me laugh! I've already lost my marbles!
What a fab collection of letters and Christmas cards. It's so good to get everyone's news and I look forward to replying to you all! Yipee!
This is such a gorgeous package from Gracienne. I adore vintage prints, whimsy designs, washi tape and hand crafted items.
Ahhh lovely Tully my Package Pals swap partner! Task 3 (or was it 2?! What was it I said about those marbles?!) was included as was this cute chicken vest top for little 'un! It's very appropriate because Pete has always nicknamed me 'chicken' or 'chick' and when I was pregnant the bump was nicknamed 'little chick'!
Breeeeeeeee! Missed you! It was really great to hear from you! I'm coming over to check out your blog news in a mo and leave you some messages!
Awww Shannon. This was so thoughtful, generous and exceptionally creative! I was blown away by the handmade journal! It's really incredible and great to read your post about making them! I've saved lots of little bits and bats which will go perfectly inside. How wonderful. I will take some photos for you once I've finished.
Pete was sat in the same room when I was going "ooohhh" and "awwww" so he came to see what I was doing and then started ohhhing and awwwing himself. Hehee!
Pete said he will pick a photo of Charlotte to go with this quote and then we can include it in the memory book.
It's been really great developing our friendships this year. I can't wait to learn even more about you all and share more love, give more support and exchange more crafty ideas in 2013.
Much love to you all this Christmas and New Year You're all never far from my thoughts. Shout out to Kendra too!
xoxo
