This is going to be a longggg, photo heavy post!
You've been warned, lol!
Ugh - desk got worse before it got better!
Finishing up the last of the flower pot cards.
Mess spilled over to my table too!
Notice that box on the left?? IT'S FROM EMILY!!!
Anyway, back to the box from Emily! You'll notice up above that the box is overflowing! I am pretty handy with filling up a box myself, but I literally could not fit all the stuff back into it once I had opened it!! Well done and THANK YOU, Emily!!
First off, the "sweeties":
Now on the the crafting goodies:
I got five sheets of this croco-embossed paper!! Isn't it fab??? IF I can manage to cut into it, it's going to become the most incredible paper purses. That's a big IF though, lol!

This is a roll of icicle sticker sheet!
This "rope" will be perfect for the MANY nautical cards I'm going to be making!
Gorgeous paper doilies!!
"Peel Offs" are pretty much in disdain in England. BUT they are very
hard to find for us, so very desirable!! And I've got TWO sheets!!!!
Yippee!!!!

Hi Jeannie hon, fab tidy craft space, yep you can't fit all the goodies back into that box. Love your flower pot cards, I will be trying out that look. And winegums come in 'sour' flavour too [I have not tried them, just spied them]

Hi Jeannie that's quite a box full you got there. All my boys including hubby love Maynards wine gums...we always get a big box of them.
Love your cards too.
Thanks for sharing and enjoy all your sweeties.
Hugs Erika. #90
I want an Emily, too! :)
Wine gums? How did I miss that when we were in London???
So many beautiful goodies! She did good! :D
All I can say is - IF you think your desk and table are a mess, you should see my whole room! I have to clean it up tonight as it is also our spare bedroom and we are having an out of town guest this weekend.
You make me want to craft and make cards again.
I love getting boxes!! And the floral cards are ah-mazing! You, ma'am, are a true talent. :)
You have nice stuff.
I have never heard of wine gums before.
Someone got spoiled! ;)
The Emily is available and can easily be bribed with bags of Candy Corn, Lifesavers (esp Butterrum) and Circus Peanuts!!!
Glad you enjoyed all your goodies hun and THANK YOU for the lovely box which arrived today.
Bloggy Hugs

Wow Jeannie - awesome stash! What fun you are going to have with all that. And I adore the golfing card - that is sooo imaginative, with the fabby shoes and the golfer's eye view! Brilliant.
