Jackpot!

I received an email from my step-mom last week asking me if I was interested in her "vintage" lace and rick rack and buttons from her sewing stash. WHAT!?! Are you KIDDING??? OF COURSE! some of it was in her mom's stash so maybe it's "antique" ??? LOL

while I was waiting for the yummy goods I decided to make a card and use some of the lace I already had - have to make room for the new stuff, right? so here is the card. I used pink lace under the white (doesn't show much) then a scrap of MME Penny Lane paper all tied together with some sheer white ribbon - I love this sheer ribbon - I find it at Walmart and I have it in about 5 colors! then I had to use this cute mixing bowl stamp and color it in with pencils....I decided to make it a welcome home card - and I have no one to send it to! lol SO - I think I'll add it to the cards I'm sending my step-mom, Signe, as a thank you!


The box came the other day! that's why this post is titled jackpot! wow did I ever make out! she sent a TON of lace, rick rack, ribbon, buttons, and a whole bunch of Christmas crafty stuff that just makes me happy!!!!! Is it too early to start on Christmas crafts? nah, it's NEVER too early! ☺
