Happy Mail x 2

Yesterday, I received a box of shabby-chic goodness from my blogging friend, Kirsty Vittetoe of Handmade Little Things.  I had been visiting her post here and saw her winning creation (she won at The Shabby Tea Room).  I jokingly asked in my comment could she make one for me too, 'cause I love it.  And what did she do?  She sent it to me from Las Vegas to New Jersey!



If you pop over to her blog, she has more (and better) pictures of it to really appreciate all the little details on this hanging plaque.  There is so much to see!  (I mean, on this plaque, but also so much to see on her blog!)

Kirsty is creator and one of the Design Team members for City Crafter Challenge Blog.  They truly have fun challenges there...you should visit and play sometime!

Kirsty, I can't thank you enough.  I am still overwhelmed by your random act of kindness!  I feel very lucky to have you as my blogging buddy, indeed.  :)  I am so happy to display this in my home!


My other piece of Happy Mail yesterday came via Blog Comment from my friend, Bonnie Klass of Stamping with Klass.  Bonnie told me she had a surprise for me over at her blog, and it was this:


Bonnie, you are such a sweetheart!  I really appreciate you thinking of and choosing me.  I have always enjoyed our back-and-forth visits to each other's blogs. 
Bonnie frequently plays in many of the Splitcoast Challenges and makes the most lovely clean and simple cards.  I know she would love your visit.  :)

Thank you ladies, from the bottom of my heart, for being so kind to me!
Colleen
