swap treasures and gifts


Well my postman has been busy recently !
As well as my matchbox swaps arriving daily now,
I've had some other wonderful post.


I received this wonderful heart
from Textile artist Carolyn Saxby of:
LOVE STITCHING RED



Living in St Ives, Carolyn's work is inspired 
by the beauty she is surrounded by.
Her textiles are dyed using plants &  flowers
and produce the most delicate colours.

Thank you Carolyn
I adore the heart
and the love with which it was made

All of my La Mode swaps are home now
and have given me great pleasure.

Pat:
Artfully Ooglebloops
painted a "very me" flower
on her brown parcel paper !
Love it ! 



Pat had filled a box with wonderful treasures
and art inspired by the La Mode paper.


Lovely...


Thank you Pat-
I love what you made & sent me.

Patty:
Magpies nest
made her label from a delicate Honesty seed pod
& wrapped her goodies
in linen with embroidered hens
( A cheeky little reference to my other Blog ! )


Beautiful TAP paper transfers...


and an incredible altered tin


Packed with treasures !


Including one of Patty's famous birds nests
 & delicate flowers.


Thank you Patty
I love it all


I' m overwhelmed with all these wonderful gifts.
