Goodies In My Mailbox


Recently, I found wonderful goodies from Gigi from Sunshine, Lollipops & Butterflies in my mailbox -- an envelope full of scrapbooking papers, some ribbon, and ATC-sized cards.


The paper goodies included a sweet bookmark, too.


I really like these flamingos -- they would surely look great on a Valentine's Day card.


The blank Artist Trading Cards.


Pretty red ribbon.


I really like the lady on this scrapbooking paper. I can picture her on a New Year's card.


Aren't those animals just adorable?


Most of all, I love Gigi's note -- thanks so much for all and everything, Gigi!

Happy Thanksgiving


Happy Thanksgiving! A special thanks for your friendship and also for leaving comments -- so very much appreciated.


Today is the perfect occasion to thank two lovely ladies for the goodies they recently sent my way. Theresa from Faerie Moon Creations certainly knows how to celebrate Halloween in style. I was the lucky winner of her Witchy Halloween Wristlets Giveaway. The wristlets are just wonderful and have already helped to keep my wrists warm quite a few times.



Theresa sent them in a sweet Fright Night bag along with a tiny broom and black feather.


A tiny black bird was watching over the treasures. He looked just great sitting in my Halloween tree.


I was thrilled to see that Theresa had included candy corn. I had never had the chance to try candy corn before. What can I say? I love it!


Those of you who know Theresa are surely aware that she is a talented artist. I was delighted to see that she included a bookmark showing one of her paintings. I have already put it to good use.


On top of the Fright Night bag I discovered a tiny ornament of a bird in a cage.


Just as the little black bird, it looked fabulous on my Halloween tree.


The goodies were stored in a paper bag with an October 31 seal -- just wonderful! Thanks for all these goodies, Theresa -- I love all and everything!


A couple of days later I found a surprise in my mailbox. Gigi from Sunshine, Lollipops & Butterflies had sent an envelope with two sweet cards. Both of them are now on display in my study.


She also included a few bits and pieces which make a mixed media artist's heart go pitter patter.


Back in March, Gigi showed some of her St. Patrick's Day ATCs on her blog. She offered an extra card for one lucky (not necessarily Irish) person, and lucky me was chosen. So now I was in for a green treat -- this sweet St. Patrick's Day ATC.


Gigi also included a great tag with lots of dimensional elements.


Finally, she also sent a Mardi Gras ATC which -- along with the St. Patrick's Day ATC and Phoenix tag -- now has a place of honor in my study. Thanks Gigi for that lovely surprise letter!


And now -- enjoy Turkey Day!

Happy Halloween


My little Halloween tree.


This year the ghost family has grown by two members -- the green ghost and the purple ghost.


Ed is the best part of my Halloween tree for sure! Pam, once again a BIG thanks for creating him in the first place and then sending him my way.


I have two jack-o-lanterns this year. The one on the right side whom I call Lightning Jack had a little accident before I could carve him. He slipped from my hands and crashed on the floor. That's how he got his misshaped eye. The pumpkins look quite different -- Regular Jack is by far lighter than Lightning Jack while the latter has a more orange glow.


Tombstone and bat -- a perfect combination.


Treats.


My picture holder from IKEA with some of my Halloween cards, ATCs, and some other stuff I treasure.


Sure thing that Lara is dressed up for the occasion, too.


A cute little witch.


Two Kokopellis are guarding my Halloween divination box.


A witch from the Harz.


A shiny bat.


Have a safe and happy Halloween!

Z is for Zero

Can it really be that Jenny's Alphabe-Thursday has once again come to an end with Z? This time I chose Zero as in "zero comments." I noticed that quite a few -- 43 to be specific -- of my blog entries don't have any comments. I chose one photo of each blog post and repost that photo now. If you click on it (or the title), the old blog post will open -- your chance to comment on it now. Choose those photos which speak most to you for one reason or another. Let's see how many of my blog posts can finally get a comment!







I think I have never posted such an eclectic range of pictures before. I hope you liked the wild ride. Of course, I am really happy if you have left a comment now and then. Thanks!
