a good mail day

i don't believe i shared this card here. it's a few months old. lots of patterns here and i think it looks a bit busy. oh well.....we can focus on that almost-perfect bow then!so, last friday was a good mail day. i mean a VERY good mail day! look at what my bloggie friend ivy sent me..... a flower frog so i can stand my cards up like this! what a sweetie!
then, i had a fed-ex box waiting for me on my doorstep from hero arts. i won all this for participating in their OWH (operation write home) bash [picked randomly]. i ended up sending a total of 16 cards. sucha a great company and so generous!

most of you know that i am a cupcake-a-holic! my sister sent this to me! so cute!my order from lawn fawn also arrived in the mail! had to play with it right away! look at how kelly wrapped it all up! here's what i made. i know, a bit early for a christmas card but i couldn't resist!it was just great to get a load of happy mail! no bills that day either =)
thanks for stopping by!

You had a fantastic mail day! I don't have any Lawn Fawn stamps and I'm really thinking about buying some. The images are so cute!
