Lots of mail...

... well I have had an enormous amount of mail in the last week.....

This is the altered chipboard shape I received from Norma - look at all the lovely bling and ribbon!  Thanks Norma.

This fridge magnet was the altered chipboard shape I  made for the swap.  I triple embossed the shape and stamped the pile of teacups and added a heart for interest.  The little hangings are stamped on shrink plastic there is a toaster, a coffee pot and a tea cup, they are attached with jump rings. 

My mum received this chipboard shape.

This is the chipboard shape my mum made.

My mum received this scrapling a few days later

... and this is the scrapling I received from Gabby - I'm not sure how she made it look like metal, but I think is is card - thanks Gabby.

This is my mum's scrapling.

 AND THEN .... WHEN I GOT HOME ON FRIDAY THERE WAS A CARD SAYING A LETTER NEEDED SIGNING FOR AND GUESS WHAT IT WAS........

This letter was included and I'd received a free giveaway from Craft Stamper...

 Blast from the past

My mum embroidered this when my son was born - almost 25 years ago.

And here is is - a little bib.  Don't think it will fit him now!

Yesterday I finally got the big desk out of the studio it even fitted into the back of my car!
