ATC trades...and more

First - some non-ABC trades - the first from Lisa - who was sweet enough to send me this ATC when I left her a sob story about my love affair with lady slippers... and some photo's of lady slippers that I saw on the cape recently. Thanks Lisa, I love it, wonderful picture.




Kate sent me a lotus picture, she thinks it looks like a sea urchin - but I love it either way. Along with a wonderful card - thanks again Kate.
Teri sent me this gorgeous blue spotted frog - isn't he unique? He's just gorgeous in person.



From Lynn - an alligator from (not from the ABC grouping) and one of her wonderful photo cards. Lynn - a treasure! I love them both.



For the ATC trade -

Apple Blossom from Marianne - in her gorgeous style.

The fluffiest cutest bear from Lynn for B - let me tell you - he is adorable and that Lynn is pretty creative!
From our moving friend, Lolo who did me a FISH!!!! Hurray!!! Isn't he amazing?

I received this sunflower card also from Miss Lolo as she saw a comment on Lynn's blog that I liked sunflowers. So she sent me this blank card, which I think is so beautiful and typical Lolo-thoughtfulness.

I do love sunflowers - so cheery and useful. I am also the proud so-to-be owner of Lynn's wonderful Sunflower quilt piece. I saw it on her blog and BOOM - I just had to have it...

More to come later in the week - right now it's time for the Lily-white feather bed ball.

I love show and tell! I'm glad you liked my goodies ;)
The others are fantastic...wow!
I remember when I lived in Mass it was illegal to pick ladyslippers because it's the state flower. Is that still true? I've always been fascinated by them and used to paint them like crazy.

Happy Monday ;)
