I simply cannot wait to share pictures from the gorgeous and amazing valentines I have received so far. I had thought of spreading them out - to sort of celebrate the entire month of February beginning on Feb. 1st - but, I can't wait. It's all just too exciting!
This amazing decorated candy box is from our own sweetheart Kim from Musings From Kim K.
It is just shimmering with glitter and garland! I just LUV IT!
And, this is the back of the little box. Both sides are decorated to perfection - with lots of glittery sparkle! My son's girlfriend is going to love this little box, as she is Asian, and just as cute as a button!
And this sweet little tag!
And, this one, too!
And then, this little treasure! Can you even believe how adorable this sweet Valentine angel is! I am soooooo in love with her!
Kim, dear sweet Kim, I am so thankful for this very, very lovely gift.
You are so talented - and I appreciate you joining me so much!
I will treasure these gifts forever, and try very hard to copy them! LOL! And, I also loved the crimpled up paper, and it is going in a little bird nest and a few other places for my Valentine's decorating. You thought of everything, Dear Friend.
Thank you!
****************
In the past, I participated in 3 swaps, one was a Mary Engelbreit Garland swap, and the other 2 were with Elizabeth; a tag swap, and a Diner swap. Both were very exciting for me - and I learned so much.
This time, it was ME who hosted - and I truly had no idea that gals would do so much for me. I sent out a valentine - and they have been sending me back gifts galore! I am humbled by the generosity and kindness of each gift - even the love and care in packaging melts my heart.
To my Valentine Swap Friends - Thank you - more than you know.
I feel so hugged and loved.
Thank you, Patti
I'm blushing. I have just as much sharing my creations, as I do making them. Sending you Valentine hugs the whole month long!
