Wanted to share a few ornaments I sent out to my partner in Marsha's (Sassy Mini Dolls) ornament exchange.
I had sooo much fun making these ornaments for my swap partner, Nerina. Creating these ornaments really helped get the Christmas prep juices flowing.

Nerina and I corresponded a bit to get to know one another, and to find out each other's likes and styles. In one of the emails, she mentioned she was finding herself really drawn this year to vintage-looking, sparkly, old-fashioned ornaments and Christmas decor.

this little guy was inspired by one i saw on web somewhere last year. can't remember where. isn't he adorable? |
In turn, Nerina sent a huge box of wonderful goodies to me. Several styles of ornaments, items for creating ornaments and crafty projects, all kinds of cool things. I plan on sharing pics of my goodies from her tomorrow. Didn't want to drown you all in tons of snaps tonight!
this was actually a store-bought ornament. i cheated just a bit ;o) |

On December 1st, Marsha will set up a linky party so we can all go and visit each other, and see what lovely ornaments others in the swap exchanged. She's also creating a virtual tree that will be adorned with all our ornaments. Can't wait to see that!
Check back tomorrow so I can share all the great goodies Nerina sent to me!
Thanks for visiting!
