Thankful Thursday: Catching Up

I've missed a couple of Thankful Thursday posts lately so today I'm here to catch up!






A couple of weeks ago Mim sent this adorable ATC because she said it reminded her of my dog Emma who is pretty much a reddish color. I just love the punched-out bone shape, the torn edge, and of course the MIM dog card it came in! Thanks Mim! Emma is waiting by the door ;)










Then Julie of "A Succulent Garden" totally surprised me with this wonderful owl atc sitting on a "Lolo" branch! It's hand-stitched and made if bright felt colors and it came in a matching card! Thanks Julie, I love it ;)



Miss Margaret of Waterblossoms sent me a sweet Valentine with one of her wonderful Heartangles. The message was "May your new roots allow your artistic muse to flourish!" What a treasure. Thanks Margaret! ;)




And finally Marianne sent me my "G" abc/atc which I can't show yet but she also sent me this exquisitely rich paper and envelopes with real flower petals and leaves which she brought back from Bangkok. I'll have to try to come up with something special to make from these! Thanks Marianne, wow! ;)


Thank you all for your wonderful, thoughtful gifts! May your blessings be many!

  1. I'm having so much trouble with the new formatting!!!!

    I have NO idea why I have white highlight after Mim's cards. I tried to get rid of it and deleted the whole post twice.
