Gifts for my Secret Santa with Scrapshare
















I was giving a name for someone who lives in Queensland and I had a lot of fun making her presents. The Scrapshare gifts were just for Christmas and it is nice to have a surprise under the tree, especially since I usually buy my own presents and give them to the family to wrap. I just got a message that Jane was thrilled with her surprise parcel, so I was stressing for nothing!

This afternoon my Secret Santa gift arrived from my Scrapshare Partner postmarked from New Zealand. My DD 9yrs grabbed the Chocolates and DS 5yrs took the zip pulls and asked what else was for him! Enclosed was a recipe book, cards, chocolates, tags, a purse notelet, embossed paper and Creative Memories product to name a few.

Look just how spoilt I have been with my Secret Santa gift from my Stampin Up In Oz Group. Julie Price has been kind enough to co-ordinate the Swap which is for 3 months, starting with our Christmas presents. The box is similar to one from Ustamp and the 4 jars have glitter in them.

Busy cardmaking....

Spring Song Stamp set

I have been practicing my Watercolouring skills with this Stamp set, "Spring Song" which I borrowed from Jenny. There are a few of us that try to catch up at least twice a month for a "Stamp and chat".
