I am so gl;ad it finally made it to you!
It took what...3 months?

Now let me tell you about the creatures...
The snake is a rare breed that you will only find in thrift store or yard sales. He is the hard to find "next tie snake"
Yes he is made from a tie

That is one wild tie ain't it ?
The squishy ball is what my kids called a "Pokey Pig"
He is a cross between a porcupine and a pink pig
The face if you look closely is made of quilling paper
The dragon is made of sculpy like you said but after I made her my kids played with her and broke off his wings

So my daughter (who also helped me paint her) helped me make new wings out of green duct tape

My daughter decided she needed great big red lips so she is a "Kissing Dragon"
I hate that some of the candy melted but man...if I was in a box for 3 months I might melt too lol
Still I am SOOOO happy it finally got to you and that you like it all
PS I knew you liked dragons so that is why I chose that pic for the journal and you told me about your daughter and ducks.
I saved that duck from being tossed in the trash at my local thrift store cuz its head was falling off.
So I stitched it up and gave it a new ribbon
