Giveaways Pics & TAG Makers !!

Giveaway Pics & TAG Makers!!

Sweet Laurie of Charming Designs was the winner of my 1 yr. Blogiversary Giveaway recently. Well, I forgot to make pictures before I shipped her goodies off, so I borrowed her pic from her blog here for you to see. I sent her a rose cup & saucer, a cross-stitched teapot hand towel, some vintage crocheted doilies, vintage embroidered doilies, an angel print, a framed tin-type "instant ancestor", a fun little pink chandelier, chandelier note cards & envelopes, some vintage postcards, newer postcards, & of course I added 4 pieces of blingy rhinestone jewelry. I just bet they find their way into some of her wonderful birdie creations!! Check out her latest designs here!

Calling All Tag Makers
This handsome young man is Marc ~ he is the son of my dear friend Lori of Pink Faded Roses. Marc graduates high school in June & has made the decision to enlist in the Air Force & will be traveling from Indiana to our great state of Texas on July 7th to enter boot camp at San Antonio. His mom is giving him a big send off party & is needing some help ~ she is making a tree & wants to decorate it with ~ TAGS ~ for Marc, SOOOO if you are a tag maker, shoot, even if you have never made a tag before, like ME, please make a tag for Marc. I know I'm going to! It is a small thing to do for those of our youth who are choosing to go into the military to protect us. Lori needs the tags by June 17th. You can send your tags directly to her ~ just click here to go to her blog, email her & she will give you her address. I would think anything in the Red, White, & Blue color scheme would work! Thanks so much for helping Lori with this!!!!



Now to another giveaway.....I was very fortunate to win a giveaway from Cathy at Cranberry Cottage!! She makes the most wonderful scented soaps & room sprays & other adorable decorative items ~ you must run to her blog here & her etsy store here!



She sent me this lovely package & it smelled heavenly the moment I opened the packing box!! Inside was a beautifully tulle wrapped surprise!


The most adorable little galvanized metal container chock full of items to pamper & spoil me!

Look at the pretty sheet music, millinery flower & buttons on the front of the container!



Lilac Room Spray 3 Kinds of Handmade Soaps!! Altered Art Journal

(the Fresh Linen Soap is my new Fav!)



This is sitting by the side of my tub, & all I can say is THANK YOU, Dear Cathy, & ahhhh, I feel like I'm at a spa being pampered with all these goodies!!

Tomorrow I'll be making pictures of my new flea market finds for you on Friday so please stop back soon!

Hugs,

Stephanie, You sweetie you! I so thank you! I bet your too far from San Antonio aren't you? It'll drive me bonkers to be in TX and not see you! Such a sweet request from you to your friends. I have been so up to my elbows in tears and emotions all week! I'll hope life slows a bit I have a collection of things for you I need to wrap and mail. Sending my love and gratitude, Lori
