I wore my favorite lime green color, to coordinate with the frame. Too bad you can't see the sofa in the pic; it's red. It would have complimented the frame even more! Oh well, we had Cosmos, so we weren't being picky with our photographer (our daughter, who was not too happy in her official photographer role. Evidently, she had "better" things to do! What could be better than a Cosmo photo shoot? Her priorities are skewed.)

foufigirl, I feel it. Your goodies should arrive tomorrow! I would bet some other Cosmo girls will get theirs, too. For everyone who hasn't sent, don't forget that Tuesday is the deadline. You MUST let me know if you are sending late for any reason!!

I can't wait to see the rest of the gallery...

I got the best package today from the queen of swapping herself, Stifflersmom!  I know these pics don't do it justice but you all should just fix yourselves a beverage and come take a peek at all my goodies! 
A cute martini envelope

complete with martinifetti

Adorable stationary and napkins.  You can insert the napkins into these cool coasterlike things - I like!

There's more!  A gorgeous cocktail purse (oops, are the handles upside down?!)

and it's contents and lining

Closeup of the contents which includes a great box of cocktail recipes (the cosmo one is shown) and some sugar for my glasses (yum)!

An altoid tin with a lovely cocktail drinking gal

An inside are magnets and a beautiful pin

And finally a fab cocktail shaker with all my fave recipes that had some beautiful magnets inside (pictured on my fridge)

The closeup of the magnets came out crappy but they are little circular tin boxes with a clear lid.  Inside you see these swanky ladies drinking martini's and they have shiny sequins in them.  One says "cosmopolitan girl" on it and the other says "martini girl". 
THANK YOU SO MUCH Stifflersmom!  I adore it all!  I am so  lucky to have you as a swap partner.  I hope you like your goodies half as much!  This totally makes up for my first swap that I had so much fun doing but didn't quite get my prize (yet-there's hope!).  Thanks again - I wish I had a crown for your tennies!

I'm starting to get swapping anxiety that my swap package sucks... 

[classycrafter]

Wow gingerquilts great package!!

[rackycoo]

Great stuff, stifflersmom!

OK, now we've seen that black martini paper two times: on a decopaged box from redstar13, and as an envelope from stifflersmom. Where will it show up next? I know at least one other swapper that will be seeing it: my partner, foufigirl! Did anyone else use it?? I think it's fun to see the very different ways it's been used.

That paper was just too cute!

[Stifflersmom]

I am so glad you like the cosmo goodies and that they arrived in good shape! The handles are kinda movable, so whatever you fancy. 
When I saw the decopaged box with the martini paper, I had to remove the one I made gingerquilts and replace it with something else! HA! Well, if there is a round 2, and you are my partner, you know what you'll be getting! Hee!

I am so excited to see more goodies on the gallery!

[GirlyGirlBags]

Everyone's goodies look so great!  I get so excited every time I see something new posted in the gallery.

everyone's stuff has turned out so awesome! this really was a fun theme to craft around!
