I received my package from Amymisha today!  I was so excited that I forgot to take pics before I dug in.    Here is the cute wrappings.  I love the skull tissue paper and the plastic bag with paw prints will make some adorable fused plastic.  Is it strange that I am excited about the wrapping? 

Amy said she went a little overboard with the ribbon.. she wasn't kidding (but can you ever have enough ribbon??)!

Look at that tower!  I can think of so many things to make with this!
And this beautiful lacey-ness:

Next up is my first ever Jar of Whimsies!  I dumped it out to inspect the yummy contents and almost couldn't get it all back in there   I am so inspired by what's inside (and there was MORE ribbon, hee hee)!

She also gave me this awesome pattern!  I can't wait to make a few of these bags

I am loving this pin cushion.  Amy says it was her great-grandmother's   I think it's just adorable.  So does my daughter and she keeps trying to take it to have a tea party

I almost missed this bookmark, but I'm sure glad I didn't!  It's georgous and I can't wait to stick it in my current book (Angry Housewives Eating Bon Bons).


As a side note: My daughter (who is 3) helped me open the package and with each item I pulled out she exclaimed loudly, "Is that for me?!"    Made me giggle.
Thank you so much Amymisha, I am totally blown away!!  It still feels strange to get something for nothing, but I'm glad you'll get to join swaps again soon!

That's a lovely package, Amymisha!

Yay! Glad you love it all. : ) Yes, the little cup was part of set of cups from my Mormor, who is actually my great-grandmother. I have a few more, and now I know what I am going to do with them. : )
Share nice with your daughter! Thank you for letting me redeem myself. I'm not a bad person, just went through an evil rough patch.

Great package there.  I think there's a whimsy swap forming or in progress.  You could check it out.

It's always good to get crafting supplies.  Good job.

Love the package!  Beautiful ribbons.  But that pincushion is wonderful!

Great pincushion I love the color, and shape of the tea cup

That is a fantastic package amymisha, great job.

Wow! That is fantastic!  I think you are right - you never can have enough ribbon!  I have a shoebox with ribbon in it that my friends are always raiding when they need something to jazz up a project... I think they believe that ribbon grows on trees or something...

What a great way to kick off the gallery!
