I am such a lucky girl!!!!



Kelly and LuLu..... I just love you guys! I am so grateful to you both! Check out my newest goodies........ a vintage stationary assortment and an oh~so~yummy Halloween cake! This stack of greeting cards with old wrapping papers was picked just for me, and aw.... boy, did Kelly do a fantastic job!!!!!!!!!! No, I can't actually eat this new cake of mine...... it's strictly decorative and oh, just so gorgeous, but getta load of that faux icing!!!!!!!!!!! I am blessed to have met so many wonderful friends in this big, beautiful blogland that I have become quite addicted to! I also think that I am pretty spoiled rotten now, huh? *swoon*............ I love all of my treats! Beth Perry also sent me a wonderful "recipe" box. Recipes full of scrapping ideas!!!! How cool! I still need to take pics of it, Beth.......... that'll come next!
Okay, I'm not very good at this, but I feel as though it's MY turn to host a giveaway. What would you think about that? I need to gather some goodies and just go for it. Stay posted and I'll hopefully come up with something in the next few days!!!! How does that sound???? I'm actually really excited to do it. I'm well past the 100th post and I don't think it's a blogiversary, so this will be just for the heck of it.........
OH, and DONNA..... I still have those acorns! Yikes! I'll get them out to you soon~~~ I haven't forgotten about you, I promise! :)
Hugs,
Christina!
