Easter Eggstravaganza Swap







My partner really spoiled me with all the wonderful items she sent me for this Swap-bot swap (top picture). The next two pictures show what I put together for my partner.

Theme swap











Another swap I participated in on Swap-bot was this theme swap. I picked Outer Space for my theme - my partner decided to send me items having to do with "Stardust". I thought this was very clever of her, and I loved what she sent, all things silver and glittery. The partner I sent to chose Dragons, and I had fun putting hers together.

Pincushion in a matchbox (fairy) Swap


This is a swap I participated in on Swap-bot. I had a lot of fun creating my pincushion and decorating my matchbox. I haven't yet received mine from my partner, but when I do I'll be sure to post a picture. This is a picture of the one I made for my partner.

Love the swaps




















This is my first post (well, not counting the one my niece and her bff started me out with - thanks girls!) My sister (http://alittleofthisandthat-kelly.blogspot.com/) introduced me to swapping and I love it. I've only participated in one swap so far and had a lot of fun doing it. It was the "Secret Admirer Valentine Swap" hosted by Mary Ann of "Follow Your Bliss Designs". I was Secret Admirer to Wenche in Norway (http://wenmart.blogspot.com/). She likes quilting and stitchery and such. My Secret Admirer was Tammy (http://onefrustratedmomma.blogspot.com/) - she sent me the Valentine in the first picture above - I really like what she did with the heart container. The second pic is the Valentine I sent to Wenche (I hope she like it). The next two are of my cats, Candy Corn and Taz. The next swap I'm joining is "Kittens to Cats - Meoooooow Swap" at Swap-bot - I'm going there right now to browse - let's see what other fun swaps I can join.

First Post

Hi, this is Smiley's neice Jasmine and her bff Ruby the Spengowski sisters starting this blog for Aunt Smiley. Aunt Smiley likes to swap and she needed a blog to post her likes and dislikes. So we decided to help out with getting her blog started. Aren't we nice???
