Happy Mail :)

Look at the lovelies that I snatched out of the mailbox when I got home this evening!  Let me just say, TAC Angels are THE BEST!


Kim Sears sent me a witchy card, a beyond-uber-cool cardstock background made with glue & Pearl-Ex, and some Halloween Fries :)  Kim said that when she saw the creepy box o' flanges, she thought of me... awwwwwwwww... how sweet, right?  ;)  


Kim IS so sweet... last year she sent me a chipboard Christmas "Joy" book to alter... you can see it finished here:

I know!  Thanks, Kim!!!



Next up, from Patti J., super cute Halloweenie pizza box with skelly tag.  Then on the INSIDE, first is this:


... because I am sooooooooo angelic, right?  ;)  And then under the tissue paper is THIS!!!



...creepy-cool, right?!  Again, Patti said she thought of me when out shopping and came across this.  Because though I am so totally into creepy Halloween spiders, we all know a girl needs a little bling-i-ness in her life ;)  Thanks so much, Patti!!



Last month, Seleise sent me this totally cute green piggie card and mummy bag.  And inside the mummy bag?



...yeay!  More stamps!  More for my ever-growing collection!  These are great because they are smaller images... perfect to sneek in here or there ;)



THEN, Rita W. sent me this freakin' awesome necklace!  The pendant is made from a piece of a Scrabble game!  Told ya'... kewl!  Thanks, Rita!!




And finally, from Melisa, I was given THIS!!!  We took part in a Art Share, and she made this altered hardboard canvas.  It is beyond fantastic, and the pictures do not do it justice at all.  Crackle paint, glitter, heat embossing... there is a TON of detail on this little beauty.  


I have it propped up in a creepy iron easel that I can see from my studio table... I love it!  Thank you so much, Melisa!!!



Whew.  How's that for a crazy-long post!  I just want to once again thank all of these sweet ladies for all of my Happy Mail!


What do you think?

Barb - Halloween once again is so much fun for me! My kids are grown so treat n treating is out of the question (even though I'm short I'm still too tall to dress up and go from door to door collecting candy - LOL). I hope you never, ever, ever, loose your love of Halloween!! rita w
