Shhh...kitty's asleep in her matchbox

I participated in the "Shhh...It's Asleep" matchbox swap on Swap-bot. The instructions were to take a matchbox, turn it into a bed with a pillow and blanket, and place a tiny, sleeping creature in it. Margeaux F. (Mux on Swap-bot) created one for me, and she did such a wonderful job. Let me tell you, it is SO CUTE. Check out the pictures and see for yourself (It arrived in an altoids tin to keep it from getting crushed!). The one she created is the little kitty. The other pictures show the one I made for my partner, a baby alien asleep in her UFO bed.

1) Favorite summer beach read - Firefly Beach (Can't wait to read it!)

2) Favorite childhood game - Mad Libs (Who doesn't love these!)

3) Favorite childhood treat - Animal crackers (These are a favorite adult treat for me!)

4) Favorite candy - dark chocolate (This chocolate looked fancy and tasted awesome!)

5) Favorite lotion/scent - Vanilla (Smells great!)

6) Favorite bath product - Bath & Body Warm Vanilla Sugar bath bar (Can't wait to try this!)

7) Favorite on-the-go makeup - Maybelline Liquid Eyes in Lasting Lavendar (Pretty color...)

8) Favorite color - Crayons in a "Rainbow" of colors (I was excited to see Krissy's favorite color is "rainbow", because I sent her something that makes rainbows!)
