Oh, I do love a Matchbox Trade.....

Do You?......

Well, you would have, if you took part in the

in the Speckled Egg Petite Inspiration Box Swap .

Heather organizes the most fabby trades.

I have already 'showed and telled'

what I sent to both my swap partners

(If you missed it, it's here)

...and here are the BEAUTIES I received in returm :)

From Jen in Texas

This scrumptious box made me gasp when I saw a sneak peek on her Blog

...so you can only imagine, how I felt, when I got it in my hot little hands !!

Soooo Pretty in Pink!

Crammed full, with all the little things that I adore!

...sweet little shoes, keys, lace, ribbons, cabachon, angel, beads, bottle etc....

But my favourite thing, that's if I can choose a fave out of all those gorgeous goodies has to be these....

I'm fascinated by the lil frozen Charlotte dolls

So was ever so chuffed to receive one :)

Can't wait to use that in an altered art project of some kind.

And look at the Fab neclace Jen made for me..

I ADORE  IT  !

My Hubby says that little Motto was Soooooo made for me  !!

...and for once we agree LOL !  ;)

Love the way Jen has personalised it with the little 'J' bead

and how cute is the lil piece of vintage ruler :)

Are you ready for some more Lovliness?....

Beautifully decorated...

and Wowsa  !! Spoilt once again with more lovely treasure...

LOVE this gorgeous little pink glass bottle and sweet lil shabby patchwork heart!

THANK YOU again

Oh, One more matchbox to show you

(A small one this time)

Over at the (Flickr) Matchbox monthly swap 2011 Group

The theme this month was 'Birds'

So here is my birdy offering for my swap partner ....

Made a lil nest from a crochet flower

and filled it with some teenie eggs

...some real twigs

edged in lemon  lace and some sweet little tulle and flower trim :)

I won't show what goodies are inside, that will be a surprise for my swap partner
