Lucky Me

Hello
It's the end of a long and busy week and I for one am glad it's Friday - I can wind down a little...

Today I want to share the talent and kindness of a couple of dear blog friends

A month ago I celebrated another birthday (yep, there's been quite a lot lol!)
A new little girl came to live with me ...


This adorable bunny was handmade by Kirsty! As it happens her blog is called Handmade Little Things ... It arrived with this sweet pretty card


What Kirsty could not have known is that when I was very little I wouldn't go to bed without my beloved bunny ... I had one wrapped in a little blanket that slept in my cot with me so this gift is a precious reminder ...

And just when I thought my celebrations were over ... Another package arrived today from the talented and sweet Wendy Sylvestre
Oh my ... What beautiful things ... Take a look


Papers, ribbons, roses, and flowers


Lace, stamps and a gorgeous stencil


A beautiful mixed media card ... And as if this was not enough ... Wendy sent me her beautiful handmade book


How beautiful ...

What amazing friends I have

My heart is full of gratitude ..... Thank you!

Firstly .. Belated HAPPY BIRTHDAY greetings!

What incredible, beautiful hearted, and talented friends you have. How fabulous of them to send surprise gifts which they'd made themselves. I love also the crafty goodies, which have been chosen with care and sent with such love.

May you have had a beautiful birthday, and may you have a blessed rest of your day.

See--birthdays are GOOD! The gifts & cards are amazing! PS--small world, isn't it?! Your hubby & I share our BDs & your name is really Lindy! My mom's name was Jenny Lind (which is how I got my middle name, Lind), but most people didn't even know that as she was always Lindy except when we visited grandparents. Hope you have a quieter week, Ros! I don't even have a good excuse like teaching a class to explain my out of control craft stuff, but this week has got to be clean up--LOL!
