Here are my flowers. My other daughter and son-in-law sent these to me and I loved that they weren't tall and showy. They know that orange is my favorite color. So pretty.
And here, finally, are my birthday giveaways for you, my dear followers. I decided to divvy up some candy and offer three sets so more people could win. This will all be random draws for random sets. Here they are:
The first has a Halloween theme. This set includes:
One 6x6 pack of S.E.I. "Spooks" paper
One set "Monster Squad" clear stamps by My Favorite Things
One pack of Mini Shimmer Alpha stickers
One tube of green glitter
One pack of 1/4" black Zapdots dimensional adhesive
One skein Mandarin twine
One skein Charcoal twine
The next set has a Christmas theme. It includes:
One 8x8" pack of October Afternoon "Good Cheer" paper
One "Magical Background" stamp by Hero Arts
One Martha Stewart "icicles" border punch
One package of red Kaiser Craft pearls
One skein Peapod twine
Remember the set of Stitchery stamps I knew I had but couldn't find? Well, I found them! They're part of the third set here, which includes:
One 6x6" pack Lost & Found - Market Street papers by My Mind's Eye
One pack of Dainty Dots brads by Sassafras
One Martha Stewart 3-in-1 hydrangea punch
One set of pink Kaiser Craft pearls
One Distress Stickles in Mustard Seed
For a chance to win a random set, simply become a follower of my blog and leave me a comment. Any comment. Want to guess how old I am? (Be kind...) Any comment will do!
