Encyclopedia of Me - I
I is for…
… I can not think of anything for this letter! So how about we just skip over it and I show some of the goodies I got in the mail this week!
This wonderful package arrived in the mail from Karyn as my prize for the stashbusting challenge drawing…
Button magnets! I love these:)
Buttons!
A coin purse with id holder on the front! (I love how Karyn makes these, so I am incredibly happy that I have one of my own from her now!)
A matching tote to go with the coin purse! (And a cat in the background trying to inspect the other goodies! He approved:)
A big thank you definitely goes out to Karyn for her amazing generosity! Definitely go to her site and take a look at her etsy shop! Not only is she a very sweet lady, she also has a wonderful shop with some great goodies!
Another little package also arrived for me this week from Marjorie of MarmeeCraft…
A pretty print that I won in a drawing on her blog! (Which is pretty amazing, because I never seem to win anything and all of a sudden I seem to be having a decent bit of luck!) I already have one print from her, which I absolutely love, so I felt so lucky to win one! :)
Also received in the mail this week… Woven labels with my name on for putting in tote bags, zippered pouches, and anything else I feel like making! I couldn’t get a decent picture of these yet (its been really cloudy lately so the lighting is terrible inside), but the labels are white with “Chara Michele” printed in a pretty lighter blue color. Definitely excited to be able to add these to anything I make! Now I just need to get around to making some new stuff…. I haven’t been doing much crafting/sewing the last few days, I am trying to get some other stuff done and also enjoy summer a little bit (although it is a bit warm right now to enjoy).
These photos were taken the other morning… Neither of these are the “best” photos ever, because I was in a rush to take the pictures and was holding an umbrella over my head in case it started raining again. I just had to get some photos of what the clouds looked like though! Click on the photos to see larger…
Now I am off to read a few blogs and hopefully get some stuff done…
