Faerie Enchantment

A Week of Mail Enchantment!
Over the past 2 weeks I have received so many wonderful delights in the mail, that I had to blog about it! Of course I always received such beautiful works from all the wonderful artists who join the swaps I host and its so hard to part with the goodies and swap them back out, because they are absolutely gorgeous, each and everyone of them. But these past few weeks were different. I was involved with a few one on one swaps, and hosting a Marie Antoinette Collaboration. But the works and surprises that came through my door and the generosity of these artists can't even be described, that's how wonderful they are.

Too start, I received a surprise in the mail from the amazing Scrappy Jessi http://www.scrappyjessi.blogspot.com/
Srappy Jessie Barbie Surprise Her acts of kindness and surprises are amazing, receiving this surprise just to make my day was incredible! This cupcake chic atc is sitting on my desk! Thank You Miss Jessi!
Following this beauty were other gorgeous mail packages:
Thumbelina
The Little Mermaid

Such as the two fairytale boxes I received from: JoAnn/Take a Break and Marla/CrazyFish666, both were my swap partners in a swap I hosted called: The fairytale Box Swap. JoAnn made me a Thumbelina Shadow Box and Marla made me a Little Mermaid Box, both are in my office on my desk and and hanging from my desk drawer. Thank You JoAnn and Marla: http://www.flickr.com/photos/7718440@N08/ and http://www.marlasfaerytails.com/ Now the magic doesn't stop here, I received glorious goodies from Gina Smith, Ann Denise Anderson, Sandy Camarada and MaryAnn McKeating. The pages they each made for the Marie Antoinette Book were absolutely exquisite, divine and regal. The generosity of each of these woman are astonishing. They each make my everyday shine brighter than the next, beauties in our art world, take a look: From top left to right: AnnDenise's pages, Gina Smith pages ,Sandy Camarada pages, A picture of Extra Whimsies from Ann Denise's new Papier Patisserie line, shown on my office shelf along w/a hat she made me some months back and Mary Ann's pages.
