Wonderful Sisters...........

I belong to two very amazing eBay groups..........both EHAG and PFATT. This spring, each of these groups had a swap and I signed up to do both. In an earlier post, I shared the gifts that I got to send and now I want to share with you all what I received. I know that the saying goes......."It's better to give than receive" but it's SO much fun to get to unwrap these special treats when they arrive! =o)

Here are my PFATT swap gifts before their unwrapping.........


Here are all the goodies that I received from Pam of Softinthehead for the PFATT Swap! OH MY!!!!!!! I was once lucky girl! Thank you so much Pam for all the sweet gifts! Your little mousie is so cute! I love my little pumpkin guy! The Bethany Lowe garland is so yummy! I love the Martha Stewart tags and my card! The witch sign and the wax ornie are perfect! You were way too good to my girlfriend!! =o)


And below is my wonderfully sweet EHAG swap gift that I received from Amelia aka Sweet B Folk Art! Isn't he adorable??? And she gave me the cutest card and some Smarties candy to fill him up with! Jadyn's favorite candy is Smarties, so this made her extra happy!!


So a big "Thank You" SweetB!! I will treasure my little treat jar forever!!! Oh and I almost forgot that she sent me the sweetest little vintage five and dime store charm bracelet to use in creating my art! Can't wait to use the little skull charm!

Hugs..........

Here's what I made for my PFATT and EHAG Swap Gifts....

I forgot to post pics here of the two paintings that I did for my PFATT & EHAG swaps! I've been anxious to share them with you all!

First is the swap that I made for a dear PFATT friend......Kaf Grimm of Grimitives. This little painting traveled all the way to Cape Cod, Massachusetts! Wish I could have packed myself in with it and surprised Kaf! I think it would have cost and arm and a leg to send me Priority Mail though.......HAHA!


And my EHAG Anniversary swap went to dear Iva Wilcox of Halloween Alchemy & Ivascreations! This swap package traveled all the way to the Bay Area of Northern California! I was lucky enough to get to visit there last year and would absolutely love to go back again! At least a little part of me has a home there now! *giggle*

Here's all the goodies that were included in both ladies swap packages. I wrapped each painting in orange tissue paper tied with a vintage silver seam binding bow. I included one of my new postcards and I also made hang tags out of my business cards. Each of them also got one of my champagne cork ornies made with real silver glitter and a vintage seam binding hanger (lots of BLING!). I wrote a personal not to each of them on Halloween notecards that were purchased from Megan Wommack of Magpiefeathers. I have a hoarded these little beauties for the last couple of years and only give them out to special recipients.....=o)

I just wanted to tell both you ladies what fun I had creating these swap gifts for you both and I hope you will treasure them for many years to come! =o)

Hugs...............
