I just had to save this swap for today ~ Happy Valentine's Day!
Laurie at
Indulge Your Shelf hosted a most wonderful swap where we created 4 Valentine ornies and a handcrafted Valentine card. She swapped them out for us and here's what I received from my FABULOUS partners....
First, the package arrives decked out in vintage Valentine wrapping paper ~ how sweet is that!
Seriously, I didn't want to unwrap it! Laurie is the Queen of Presentation!
But, I did ~ and here's the treasure trove that was waiting for me....
 |
the sweetest Valentine card from Laurie |
The first ornament comes from the uber-talented
Lorraine at
Paper Vernissage...the heart behind the heart is the darling package Lorraine created for the ornie
Second treasure is a gorgeous creation from
Michaele at
Twigs and Tulle
 |
not only a stunning ornie, but a stunning card as well! |
Third creation comes from the lovely and talented
Terri at
Vintage Connections (by the way...if you would like to see better pix than the ones I took, head over to Terri's...her's are fab!)
And the 4th lovely comes from
Lisa at
A Peaceful Place to Be
 |
of course I'm over the moon when it comes to birdies! |
A BIG thanks to all my partners, I couldn't be happier with your beauties, and to have made new blog friends!

I'll bet you'd like to see what I sent to all my partners, wouldn't you? You know how much I
love "trinkets" so I created bottle cap ornies that could also be worn as a pendant.
 |
all packaged up with the card I created... |
 |
reveal! |
I also created a special
"thank you" gift for Laurie, our wonderful hostess...

Wishing all of you the most wonderful
Valentine's Day! My
Valentine is on a two day biz trip to FL, so we'll celebrate when he returns [sigh], but it's allllll good!
