Valentine's Day Catchup

I wanted to post two gifts I received for Valentines:

The first is from my mom. She just bought this heart box sizzix die and flower die. I showed her how to put it together and then a couple of days later, she surprised me with this:

WOW, she did a great job and of course mom's homemade cookies are always delicious!!

Next is a Valentine's Care package from Colleen:

Microwave popcorn in the decorative packaging, Gheridelli Cocolate candy bar in the decorative packaging and these adorable Asian erasers!!

Thank you, Colleen! You are so sweet!!

Brenda's Mini Album and Open Call for February's Tea swap

My January Tea Swap partner is Brenda, my absolute favorite Librarian! I call her the queen of mini albums because every time I see her, she is creating another mini album!!

First of all here is her gorgeous tea card that she said was created by a "sorority sister::

Then she created a tea swap journal!!!  The journal has 12 pockets for the 12 months of tea swapping!

and in each pocket, there is a tag to write a description of the swap, when I sent my card out and when I received a card from my partner!  Each tag has a different tea clipart. (They are all adorable!)

Here are some pictures of the inside of the journal:

 And a picture of the beautiful cover:

Hey, Bren -- Thank you for being a GREAT Partner this month!! 
I L-O-V-E my journal book!!!
