Bunny Swap Buddy

Girls, I've been told by many friends that I should be in swaps because I love to craft so much.  But...I've seen some swap mammas in action and it is intimidating.  I'm crafty but not nearly as creative as many peeps.

I participated in 2 Easter swaps this season and loved every minute of it.  Both of my packages arrived on the same day.  lol~! This is my 2nd swap ever.

 It was a happy day.

1 peek inside and I was squealing with delight.  I wanted to just stare at the pretty tissue.  Every item was individually wrapped.  I'm constantly surrounded by boys, ya'll...this thrills me. 

OMG!!  She made me a bunny!! 

OMG...I love her so much.  I had sent her a yard of fun Spring/Easter fabric and she used it on her dress.  Yes, she shocked me.  My heart was beating fast and I was feeling woozie about looking at more. 

I got a cute new kitchen towel, a bag of foil chocolate eggs, a carmel apple jar candle, gorgeous spring ribbon and a boy bunny statuette.  Fun, fun, fun!!  I've had a blast using every bit of that ribbon this Spring.  I'm saving the candle and enjoying the boy bunny in my kitchen.  I think the foil chocolate eggs are multiplying because I kept using them and they kept being there.  lol

Look at her belly button...cuteness!!

This is what went to Virginia to Tammy...

I used my blessing ribbon.  I anointed her box and prayed for her precious family.

I sent her a kitchen towel too (lol), a fabric bunny (great minds think alike), and the yard of fabric.  I think she knows what she is doing in the sewing room and was so honored that she used my fabric and made me a bunny.  I did not make my bunny like she made hers. 

I stuffed as much candy as I could fit and a key~chain project she could give 1 of her kids.

I kinda fashioned a tussie~mussie with scrapbook paper.  I'd like to do a tussie~mussie swap.

Fun, fun, fun...glad I got over my anxiety and went for it.  Gotta keep doing it to prove that it is ok to put myself out there and I get to meet new peeps, try new things, see other peeps talent.  I love that Tammy is in Virginia and could actually meet her passing thru North Carolina trips.  

Overcoming Anxiety is a beautiful thing!!
