I love parcels

You might remember that a while back I joined the Scrap Swap that TuttiFruiti and RedHeaded Snip It organised. Well look what I got!

Scrap swap parcel

A big thank you to my swap partner Kristine. These arrived early last week, apologies for my lateness in posting about them! The fabrics are so lovely, lots of gorgeous florals, and in generous cuts too. I don’t have many florals in my stash, so I’m very excited to get these! She also included some japanese print and linen which she knows I love. Thank you so much Kristine! If you haven’t come across her already, Kristine designs a children clothing line under her label Townmouse, which is just to die for. She also makes these gorgeous creche bags!

And these gorgeous cards arrived from blogless Shireen. A lovely surprise. I love them! I love the way she put those pretty paper into such lovely designs. Thank you so much, Shireen!

Lovely fabrics and those cards – too nice to use! I’d want to frame them and hang them on the wall!

Love the swap fabrics you received. Your swap partners blog looks lovely too. I love the cards that Shireen made for you, and she seems very clever being able to create beautiful cards too.

What a great parcel, both the fabric and the cards.
It was a great swap wasn’t it.
Very inexpensive and great to get bits of what other people have.
Great idea…

You take wonderful photos Claudine, not a hint of glare in sight. I don’t remember the cards looking that good when I sent them off.
