It was in an embroidered bag. swapbag3.GIFswapbox2.GIFand I sent her a Little fairy and mouse in a santa box, I called it "creature and mouse" from... not a creature was stirring not even a mouse.... here they arefairyxmasmouse3.JPGfairyxmas3.JPGFairyxmas.JPG

I posted this on the original post from Jennskins, but I don't think anyone is following that post any more so I'm reposting my December Swap from Penney Ahmed. And after seeing the work Penney put into this swap, Allyn said I got the better end of the deal.

Penney paints on glass and so I got a clear round ornament with a Scottie on it; two wine glasses with Snowmen and a Scottie on each, and a large plate with 3 Scotties and a Christmas tree and little Scottie foot prints all around the edge. She coordinated everything beautifully. And the glasses even have little snow flakes on the base of the glass. So cute.

Thank you so much, Penney.

Hey Kathy you beat me to the posting of bragging pictures yours look much better than mine anyway. bear_thumb I can't take credit for that bag I cheated with that one found it at the dollar store not bad for a buck, but the box and charm their all mine :crackup:

I'm so thrilled with what my swap partner created for me her work is amazing, the amount of detail she puts into everything is out of this world.  Kathy is one very talented lady and I think I'm the one who got the better end of the bargain in this swap and I feel really bad I didn't push myself creatively as much as I should have :redface: 

The wee mouse she created is so cute bear_wub pictures don't do the little gaffer justice it is so tiny too I don't know how she does it.  Oh and the Fairy just one bundle of perfection I love her toes they are so adorable ya just want to give them a tickle, and the wee lass even has a belly button how sweet is that.

I'm so happy I signed up for this swap it is really cool to see just how creative everyone is, however next time I know I will need to step up my game to match the talent this group seems to possess.

Thank you Kathy for putting so much effort and love into my special gifts I will treasure them always.
Hugs Deborah

This is the picture that I did for Jenn she has received it so its okay to post the pics.  It is Brazilian Embroidery and the flowers are Japanese Violets and Buds.  It is framed is a shadow box frame as the embroidery is like 3D!  I'm just in the process of taking the 3rd level class and will be taking the 4th level probably next fall.
