Packages!

Anyone who knows me, knows I just LURVE gettin packages (love sending em too) and today I sent one AND got one!

I sent Claire's package finally after a bit of a false start. I took it to the post office, had it all weighed and postage paid, packaged up and ready to go until I realised I'd forgotten to put the address on it. To make things worse I'd left the address at home so I had to bring it all the way back with me but it has DEFINATELY gone now.



I hope if Claire reads this she won't mind me sharing what's in it. I finished the card I started and made a handy little note book to go with it. I love these little notebooks and keep a handy supply on hand ready to decorate when I need a gift. I love the thought of giving any gift that can be used as well as enjoyed.


Of course I HAD to use Claire's stamps for my projects. How cool must it be to see your creations used all over the web on loads of blogs - must blow your mind! And I've seen some fab stuff out there using WM stamps.
I decorated up the inside of the card too. Wouldn't have done to leave it plain and boring. Loved these papers from My Minds Eye. I'm gettin really hooked on mini packs - perfect for card making and little projects too. I used my tab punch from Stampin Up! which is ideal for ading to pages as markers and I left a bit of ribbon long enough to act as as bookmark to save a place.
My package came from mom in the states and had my Christmas purchases in it. I have been waiting a long time to get my hands on these but I was in no hurry and I had to be sure I wasn't gonna order any more before she sent them. Jess gave me money for Mother's Day but I want some more WM stamps this time around.

I picked up the Cosmo Cricket 'material girl' a while back so I am super excited about these crafting stamps. I have links to beoth Papertrey Ink and Waltzing Mouse stamps here on my blog (right hand side) if you want to check any of these out.
So, so can't wait to use these but I have my next PT project to do tomorrow on my day of plus I have the cutest robot papers to design with for YTOC.
Guess I may have to wait just a little bit longer. Soooooo many lovely things to play with and soooooo little time. AAARRRGGHHHHHHH!!!!!!
