Hello All. Just a quick Sunday evening post to share a few photos of the gorgeous ATC I received in the mail late yesterday. My swap partner this month is Anna from Frosted Petunias. The Blissfull ATC Swap theme was "Orange." Honestly, I struggled with this theme, but Anna obviously did not! It is absolutely gorgeous! I'm sorry my photos just don't do it justice. Anna sent the ATC tucked inside a beautiful handmade card. I'm actually not suprised because Anna's blog is truely spectacular. I've seen some of her work, including some fantastic little paper dresses. I am so intrigued by these. I definately want to try making some of my own! As for the ATC I made for Anna, I sent it Friday, so she should get it early this week. She'll post it when she does, so check out her blog (and her awesome works) and look for it.
I also want to share that I am a winner! I'm nice, and darnit people like me...No. I really AM a winner! I won a great purse from JRae Designs! Jill has recently opened an Etsy Store and celebrated by having a giveawayand I won! Yeah for me!
One last thing...I discovered a great lady the other day at The English Country Garden...In Bags who is doing a PIF. A PIF is Pay It Forward! I'm participating in Sammy's PIF by posting about it here as well as committing to give away a handmade gift to three readers. It works like this...Sammy will give me, along with two others, a handmade gift. I will give a handmade gift to three readers. The other two readers that recieve Sammy's gifts will also give items to three of their readers...get it? So here are the "official" rules:
1. The first 3 people to visit my blog & leave a comment here on this post saying they want to participate will receive a homemade gift from me. You are allowed 1 year (according to the rules) in which to send out the gift. (It will not be that long for me, however)
2. You must have a blog of your own to participate in the PIF.
3. You must post about the PIF on your blog & you must offer the challenge of a PIF.
By accepting my PIF, YOU agree to host a PIF on your blog, you will agree to send a homemade gift (within 1 year) to the first 3 people who sign up on your blog to participate in your PIF & so it continues.
Sounds fun huh? Plus, you will actually be promoting Handmade. Cool right? So, leave me a comment and mention you want to participate in the PIF and POOF, you're in!
Thanks again to everyone regarding the Rewind Week. I really had a lot of fun and am excited to do it again...this time Rewind 1940s!
Toodles for now!
