My First Exchange!

After a rough week - everyone in the house was sick except DH - I had a very exciting pick-me-up!

Ranae and I had arranged to do a personal Halloween exchange, and look at the amazing lovelies that came in the mail for me!!



I couldn't have dreamed of a more incredible exchange! I have been walking on cloud nine over receiving this! Thank you Ranae for such a sweet package!! This is my first flatfold and I'm going to use it as a reference to try one this finish myself. Isn't it darling? And look at that trim! So festive! The little stickers walked off in the hands of my 3-year-old, so he keeps calling the package "our Halloween package." What a goober! And check out that scissor fob! Isn't it fantastic?! This was so much fun!!!

Ranae's package from me is in the mail finally. It's off to it's new home. I have to admit, my exchange pales in comparison to the beautiful package she put together for me. I just hope she has as much fun getting her package from me as I did getting mine from her :)

Darling exchange from, Ranae! So many wonderful goodies!

Careful though...exchanges can be a little addictive!

Oh Kim, you did get spoiled! But I am sure Ranae will love her package as well! Works that way, what someone else puts together for us, just makes our day! It is a wonderful feeling!

Glad you are beginning to feel better!

What a fun exchange. Ranae did good for you. I am sure you did as well for her. That is a really cute stitched piece you received.

Hope everyone is feeling fine now.

Both of you did a great job on the exchange. :) If you're interested, I have a tutorial on my blog for making a flatfold. Look on the sidebar under How-To.

Congratulations on taking the next step as a stitcher and doing an exchange. I can't wait to see what you sent Ranae. You have indeed been "treated" for Halloween!
