Cards, Goodies and Happy New Year!!

I hope everyone had a Great Christmas. I was very blessed this year....all our children were here on Xmas Eve. We had lots of good food, hugs and gifts.

I know you're all dying to know what I got for Xmas....cause I just love to hear what you all got..lol.

So here goes....

A Cricut and cartridge, Scorpal (love it...just as perfect as they everyone raves)...Lots of lovely paper, brads and ribbon, New dishes, clean up the computer software, gift certificate for Wally World, lovely bath items, outdoor seasonal decorations (church that plays music), chocolates and even a few games.

NOW - I'm going to show you some of the Gifts and Beautiful cards I received in the mail!!

I received a Christmas gift from Tina...owner of High Hopes Stamps. What a lovely surprise and what Fabulous goodies!! Thank you so much Tina!!....You can check out Tina's Awesome gallery here.

This Gorgeous card is from Crissy Armstrong #1artist4highhopes. I love the Fabulous coloring and sparkle on this card. Thanks Crissy!! Check out Crissy's Awesome!! Gallery here.

This Fabulous card is from Inge who is also a Design Diva for High Hopes Stamps as well as many other companies...including Magnolia. This card came all the way from the Netherlands.

Not only is the coloring Gorgeous on this card..the little boy is popped up over the little girl...there are pockets and pull out tabs. Thanks so much Inge. Be sure to check out her Wonderful blog PatternedPaper .

This is an awesome post, Ila. Wow, you hit pay dirt with all your lovely presents and cards. Thanks for the links; I'm heading over to view them now. I got a stereo for my studio, a clock radio/CD/iPod player for my bedside, a radio/CD player for my kitchen, clothes, melting pot and accessories, dream home ticket, CD's, and perfume. Wasn't I spoiled? Happy New Year. Thanks for all your inspiration and being my blogging friend.
