Woohoo, the first one!

I did say yesterday that I had a gorgeous little package arrive, and that it deserved its very own post. And when you see the pictures, I am sure you will agree. I was so lucky this year to win some wonderful door prizes in the OWOH event and this one was the first to arrive.

Now you will have to use your imagination a little bit here, because I was too quick with my unpacking, lol, I had the paper off before I even thought of the camera! This is such pretty paper, I think it might find its way onto some tags -


I do so love vintage style, and the beautiful old photographs, so you can understand why I was so chuffed with this. First, there was this gorgeous card -


And then, this oh so pretty heart, so beautifully embellished -


Just look at the lovely details, this sweet little MOP heart button -


and pretty beads -


Lucky girl, indeed, wouldn't you say?


And who was the very talended lady who picked me as her winner? It was Lynne, who has a gorgeous blog called Adorn. You can visit her here and drool over all her beautiful creations. A girl after my own heart!

I posted all my gifts on Friday, I hope that they won't take too long to get to their destinations all over the world. Fingers crossed.

Enjoy whats left of your weekend ( or the start of the new week, depending on where you are ).

Hi Liz. Popped on over to see if you were Blogging and I thought, I recognise that paper and ribbon lol. Wait until I tell you, that paper was recycled from a gift I received. Thought you'd like it. I saved a piece for myself so it will no doubt turn up on a card/tag/canvas.
Glad I joined in at OWOH and getting to know new friends.
Cold day in Perth, perfect for crafting.
Wishes
Lynne

Hi Liz,
What a wonderful gift you received. I love the tag and the heart is beautiful. The wrapping paper is so pretty and I am sure it will reach a few creations from your talented hands too.

Your giveaway gift from me left the states last Wednesday so I hope it arrives to you soon.
Keep watching.
Have a creative week ahead.
Hugs and love from Texas, Celestina Marie
