Karen @http://somedaysarediamonds-karen.blogspot.com/ was hostess for this swap. She did a fabulous job putting this all together. It was so much fun getting to know our partner, checking out all of her likes and interests.
My swap partner was Oliva @http://olivascreativequest.blogspot.com/. She is a blogerette who makes beautiful handmade greeting cards, her work is just phenomenol. She sets a beautiful table, does a lot of baking, She loves tussies, collects charming tails and is a rooster fan. She is a member of the Red Hat Society like me.
She sent me the most beautiful box ever. The workmanship was over the top:
It was full of wonderful items. First is an adorable Halloween hanging picture.
Another adorable picture.
Mulling brew for spiced cider, candy corn in a cute little mini jar.
This was a fabulous box filled with wonderful things, it was a joy to unwrap all my beautiful things.
Thank you Karen for hosing and Oliva for being a great swap partner.

What fun things you received! This was great fun wasn't it. I enjoyed creating a box for your sis and she did such a nice job on mine.
I think I'll host more swaps on my own blog. Trying my first and if it goes well...look out for a Valentine's Swap!
