Flabbergasted .....

I went to Paper Paradise yesterday to meet up with Tracey. Tracey told me I had just missed Micayla by 10 mins!!! I was bummed twice over as she had Emily with her!!!

Anyways I had recently won an RAK on her old blog, and she had dropped it off at the shop for me.

Well ya know me, no patience what so ever, so I opened it there, OMG the stash that she put into it is just stunning, I love all of it. Tracey and me were ouuuing and ahhing over it. I won't post a pic as I think it's rude, but I do want to publically thank her and what a better place than my blog to do so! Micayla has been so generous with what she put into the box. And all for leaving a comment on her blog, which I do all the time anyways.

Also that special piece that you put in Micayla, will go towards a layout of my Nan, my Nan was very special to me so I think the two will be perfect together, thank you so much Micayla for parting with it, it is truly stunning!!!!

Happy Post Part 1

Whoo hooo, I got my gift from Kels today, wow, it was sooo fantastic, lots of scrummy lovely things to play with!!!

Sorry this is the only photo that came out, I was so excited with taking the stash out of the box, that I didn't realise that most of my shots were blurry!!!! And I have all the stash put away, cause when it arrived I was actually in the middle of sorting out my stash area!!!! So sorry no I am not taking it all out again to take a photo of it!!!

Just take my word I was gobsmacked with what was in the box!!!

So a huge thank you goes to Kels for giving it to me!!!!! Check out her album HERE
