You heard right... we sent left over misc schtuff flying across the continent and I faired out AWESOME! Wendy sent my stuff and the only think she didn't send was adhesive! She made my job so easy... I merely glued it together and had this cute card!
She sent gorgeous chocolate cardstock, some button brads, already threaded! I know right, awesome! She sent these beautiful flower images already painted (I wish you could see the shimmer on these flowers, they must be painted with perfect pearls) oh and they were cut out! She even included that cute fall ribbon and a little extra special gift for me (you'll see a card with that a bit later!
Wendy rocks!

My husbands cousin sent this beautiful bracelet. which she made, in support of Lung Cancer. My husband mother was recently diagnosed with Small Cell Lung Cancer. She is doing so well, we are all so proud of her! We can't wait to get down for Christmas Holidays!

What a wonderful thing for Crystal to do, she made 11 of these bracelets, one for all my MIL's sisters and friends!
