Two Wonderful Gifts, Well Three Actually

My first gift arrived some time ago.  I apologize for not posting it sooner.  It is a beautiful card from a very lovely enabler!!!  Her name is Mary Ann Evans.  The name of her flicker account is OnLine22much.  If that doesn't ring a bell for some of us.  You should really check out her other cards and things Here.  She has a craft room that is way too cool!  Her pictures of the card below show something I couldn't get.  She used Tsukineko's new Goosebumps!  She also used 2 Impression Obsession stamps that she lists on her Flickers account.  You really gotta see how Goosebumps sprays on.  It is really wonderful.  Thank you Mary Ann for your wonderful card.  It has been brightening my day every time I sit down at my computer!!! :-)



My next gift arrived just day before yesterday.   I have known Linda for a few years and we have kept in touch off and on online.  Low and behold, she couldn't access her blog.  In the end she finally could get to one of her Dashboards, but had to start a new blog and what does she do to thank me for that!!!  She sends me the beautiful box and card below.  I would like to talk about the box first!! Isn't it beautiful and enchanting too!  Makes me think of wishes come true and trip to Fantasia!  It has 4 little drawers.  I will do with it what I do with all the cards I receive.  I will save it and treasure it.


Here is the really cute card she sent with it.  I love the flowers and that totally wonderful bear!  I really envy people who can work well with DP too.  I have a horrible time with it.  I love it too.  As you can see she has a knack with paper flowers also.  I have them and need to use them more.  Thank you again, Linda, for your wonderful surprise.  I really needed it this week, especially.  I will get even thought.  ;-)   I am in the process of that right now!!! :-)  Enough, you all have to see her blog at Linda B's Crafty Creations!!!


Well everyone, that is all for now. I hope to be back before the weekend is over with a card!!!  Thanks, all, for stopping by to look and share!

Hope you have a wonderful day, Gay xx

There it is! The little bear with the bundle of flowers is cute, cute. Great to have friends who make such beautiful things and send them to you.
