Lovin' the little pouch and the name badge holder.  I have a clip for mine, as I sit at a desk all day and end up choking myself with the lanyards when I have worn them for work...they get hooked under the edge of the desk when I lean over n stuff...then ACKGHCCCK when I sit back up abruptly

Ok....elociNNicole's package made it!!!!!!!!!!! She totally went out of her way to make me something from my wist that is AWESOME. so without further ado....

she said for me to open this first...

the most lovely Twilighty inspired apple ever...yes, I like the books; yes, that is an embarrassment... I'm getting therapy.

this was second:

homemade washcloths & soap....I'm really excited by this as I've never used knit washcloths before, not even the kitchen ones, so this is very cool.

third:

a rainbow mirror! I love the bubble design...so cute!!

and the piece de resistance:

this was in my wist and was the LAST thing I expected...I almost crashed the car while I was driving after having my son open this....it is gorgeous! amazing work elociNNicole, thank you so much!

I love all the jewelry and of course I am a Rapunzel addict.

Sandra22 sent me an AMAZING package and I'll have pictures up before the night is out.

What a great package!  I love, love, love the rainbow mirror.  That is awesome.  And I'm going to ask, what is the heart made from?  That is soooo cool.

[myklia]

So strange, I missed a whole page. 

I did have a peak at the heart from your wists though as I was with her when she did some work on it.  It is great to see everything else.  She is an awesome crafter.

Ok, going off to upload pics of what I got.

[calluna]

Wow to all of that! Is the bubble design on the mirror just tons of tiny circles in different colors of pen? It looks so intricate and pretty!

I received today too!!  Pictures might not be up til the weekend, though, because this week is insanely busy--in a good way. (spring formal at my house friday!)

[myklia]

Yay!!! I'm finally ready to post pictures of what Sandra22 sent me. 

First off, a ton of LGBT info, still a bit not seen in the picture.  There are some really cool things in there (I still have yet to see the movie Milk, but I want to):


Some post cards, a couple of Liverpool (when I was in high school, all my fave bands were from Liverpool) ones and a funny feminist one:



A gorgeous card:



A really awesome bookmark. 
Fave artist Ogi on one side:

I presume this is Bianca Casady's (sorry if I'm wrong, some fan I am ):


Now for the reversible bag.  One side is shiny purple fabric with the black triangle, which can stand for lesbian:


One side of the reverse side of the bag:


And my favorite, an image of pretend girlfriend #1, Bianca Casady (pretend girl #2 is Bek-Jean Stewart, pretend girl #3 Sarah Bettens, and #4 is Sia  ):


It is one of my favorite pics of her and she is initially the reason I became bi.  Here is the original pic (sorry for the size of it):


Thank you so so much Sandra 22.  I really could not have asked for a better package.

The Heart is made from old erector set pieces and yes, the rainbow mirror is just little circles drawn with scrapbooking markers, then fixed with a workable fixative spray and then sealed with polyurethane.  


The heart was sooo much fun to make and I got some odd looks when I was working on it at Barnes and Noble with myklia.  

[elociNNicole]

Love the bookmark and the reversible bag!  What is the image of Bianca Casady printed on?  Fabric?  Very cool!
