Catching Up - Reposted Again!!!

I've been trying to figure out how to use Photoshop Elements to edit photos I post here on my blog, and let me say it's a challenge.

Needless to say, I was the lucky winner of a giveaway over on Marie's blog Lost Bird Studio. Here are the pics of what I was lucky enough to win:

This beautiful little bag was stuffed full of the contents you see here and that little sachet she made smells heavenly. If you haven't been to Marie's blog you really need to go and visit her. She makes the most heavenly of creations and is such a sweetie too! Thanks again Marie!!

In addition, I have always admired the lovely work that Viola of Shabby Chic Inspired creates.  So I was so pleased that she was willing to do a swap with me.  These are pictures of the beautiful fabric collage and pillow she made for me.  She also included a lovely soldered charm, fabric printed bird image, and some wonderful German text.  If you haven't been to Viola's blog you really need to go and visit her too.  She is another very talented lady and a wonderful blog friend.

I recently had the opportunity to meet the sweetest blog friend Jan of The Polka Dot Barn at the KC Willis retreat.  And because she is just such a sweet person, she sent me these goodies.  Amongst all the other things she included, she made the most adorable cards, and isn't that ledger paper just to die for?  If you get a chance, please stop over to Jan's blog and tell her Hello.

Thanks for stopping by my nest, and have a great day!
