Hi All, I want to share the beautiful and thoughtful gifts my sweet friend Valerie sent me for my birthday. Thank you Valerie, your friendship means so much to me as do these lovely treasures you made for me. The beautiful card has so many gorgeous details, it is an easel card, and she loops the little beads into flowers on the wire herself, I love the gold leaf and the pretty pink rhinestones in the center of the flower that is embossed along with the embossed border, this is gorgeous! I am the proud owner of one of her stunning journals now too, which is equally stunning, love the gold leaf flakes and background stamping on this, I could look at this for hours admiring all the fine details on it! Love all the generous crafting goodies you sent with this too, thank you sweetie, you are the biggest treasure! That's it, thanks for stopping by, if you don't know Valerie and her beautiful work, you are missing out, stop by and say hello. ~Diane

Glad you like your little gifts, just sorry they arrived so late for your birthday, the post was evidently using donkey mail! Hugs, Valerie

ReplyDeleteOh mein Gott,
ReplyDeletewie wunder-wunderschön. Die Karte mit der Blume und der schönen Spitze ist ein Traum.
Sehr elegant und fein.
Und das andere herrliche Objekt erinnert mich an Pyramiden und Inschriften.
Das sieht fantastisch aus.
Tolle Werke, ganz großartig.
