….the postman brings mail that is actually interesting or even exciting?
The first package was from the lovely Julie Jeavons, a RAK for taking part in her recent challenge over at Soul Scrappers It contained some gorgeous ribbon & a fabulous handmade tag. I’m looking forward to using it all! Thank you Julie!!
The same day a second parcel hit the mat! I love getting an order from Cath Kidston! Even the packaging is a treat!
I love my Kindle & although it has a protective neoprene skin, I hated just popping it into my bag as it was. I didn’t like all the practical yet boring cases available & was thrilled that CK had spotted a niche in the market!! So now I can carry my Kindle safely & in style!!
Another delivery that arrived a little while ago was the pack of items for the SSQ12 challenge over at Soul Scrappers.
The contents were…
3 x travel embellishments
3 x brads
1 x ribbon
1 x piece cork
1 x piece denim
1 x film strip diecut
1 x piece DSP
1 x quote ( Mark Twain)
The theme was ‘Travel’ & all the items had to be incorporated! So this is what I came up with…
I used a photo from our 2010 trip to Chicago, taken by Hilary. Karen & I making the most of a photo opportunity outside our hotel! Look at Karen’s skirt…Chicago living up to it’s name as ‘the windy city’! Eat your heart out Marilyn!!
So that’s all from me for today! It’s so cold & so wet today that I’m going to curl up on the sofa with the cat & my Kindle until it’s time to collect the boys from school!
I do hope you’re enjoying your ‘Spring’ weather, wherever you may be!!
Thanks for dropping by & come back soon!

I have that set of ribbons, so I am interested to see what you do with them.
