Home Sweet Home

I love going away on trips but it's always nice to be back at home.  I hope you all had a nice Valentine's Day and President's Day holiday. 

I also had some sweet surprises waiting for me when I got home--a couple of very nice packages from 2 very sweet DFs.

From Brenda, Sweet as a Gumdrop

When I first saw Brenda's notepads and cup containers on her blog, I thought they were just the cutest things so you can imagine how excited and delighted I was when I opened my package.  Brenda, thank you so much for your thoughtfulness.  I am still toying with the idea of buying a BIA maker but just yesterday purchased the Sizzix die to make these daisies so as you can see, you have really inspired me with your creativity!    You are always creating such awesome projects and I just love this RAK, thank you!

From 1LuvnMama, Luvn The Journey

And from Mama, isn't this the sweetest desk tidy?!!!  You must go over and visit Mama's blog because she made a variety of these desk tidies and each and every one of them is just so cute and oh so pretty.   I can't believe how lucky I am to have received this.   Thank you DF for thinking of me.  You ARE 1LuvnMama!!!

                                       

From Elise, Paper Love Affair

When I received this award from my new blogging friend, Elise, I was so touched that she had thought of me.  I have been a "stalker" of Elise's gorgeous work for only a few months but because of her warm personality and sweet emails, I feel I have known her for years.   Thank you for this lovely award, Elise!   I hope I do this and pass this on correctly.
