Brown paper packages....



Hello

I have finally gotten organised and finished getting my Advent Swap parcels together.
I was mulling over how to wrap them ( I know, I think about all the big issues here...haha), and decided to go with the brown paper and string look. I stamped my date cards to add a bit of colour.  I think they look nice and rustic, I hope Vicki my swap partner likes them!  They are currently winging their way to the Northern Territory, and should be there early next week. 
So, one thing to cross off my to do list! Yay.




I have nearly finished my thing for the other Christmas swap I signed up for,  but will show you that tomorrow when I take photos.




Just thought you might like to see the gorgeous colours of the self sown Shirley poppies in our garden at the moment......


so beautiful!  They really glow in the late afternoon sun......



Anyway, hope your week is going well, see you later!
