Yesterday the postie brought me two little parcels, One from Sandi in Canada and the other one from Cindy in the USA. Today I am sharing the contents of my Canadian one, the other one will be revealed tomorrow! Sandi sent some lovely papers, embellishments, vintage Christmas pictures and crepe paper printed with Xmas images, ephemera, including a wonderful hand-written page, and a domino-book with Halloween pictures. Sandi remembered that this is my all-time fave holiday! Thanks a lot Sandi, the first pieces have already been used today!
I bought a new art-journal from EBAY this week, and was looking for the right paper to cover it. And I found it in Sandi's parcel!
I hope to start working in it this afternoon, after the dentist; that is, if I am in a fit condition to do anything!
I started on my December Calendar spread yesterday, and hope to get that finished later on so that I will be ready for the first of the month.
I am linking again to AEDM at Creative Every Day. This is the last day of the month, which has been great fun, and a good incentive to get working every day!
Have a good day you all, take care of yourselves, and thanks a lot for visiting!
oh My! Great package of goodies. We are both getting such fabulous mail! Lucky ducks are we. The paper Sandi sent and you used for your journal cover is fabulous ... elephants are a fave of mine. Look forward to seeing the rest of your goodies tomorrow and the calendar and the start of your journal. Good luck in the dentist chair! take care. hugs, Donna
