Queen of doodads

The children went back to school this morning, complaining all the way, I think it's going to take a few days to get back in the groove again! I decided to do a bit of catching up whilst listening to Adele, very loudly! lurve that song! A while ago my swap buddy Jan and I did a 'winged thing' swap and I received this little beauty from Jan
Jan is my Queen of doodads, she finds the smallest, coolest stuff a gal can imagine
I think I'm in winged heaven!
a super cool tag
and a winged ATC
I went for an Asian winged card, using a few of my stash items from Jenxo
and well... there goes the wax again, sometimes it works and sometimes it comes out a little different that I expected!
I did fill my box but I can't remember with what??!!
Thank you for a great swap Jan! I love your eye for detail! fab! Posted by Picasa

What wonderful goodies! I am loving that knob on the box. I will have to do something like that on my upcoming swap. TFS!

I just wrote a long comment, and it said "service unavailable". Well....anyway...great swap. I love wings. They would be fun to have...except when you needed to wear a sweater maybe?

Super swap - both received and given. You girls are so well matched (please excuse the 'match' box pun!).

I love your asian themed card.

Lovely swap. My two are off this week. Jess got a tat done today. I'll post about it when I get over the shock. I knew she was going to but it makes me realise with a jolt how grown up she's become & makes me sad for the little girl she was.

To me the joy is in the details, so a girl can't have too many doodads! Jan's box is ADORABLE. Took me a minute to realize it had an altered puzzle piece on top (I thought, why is that picture "blobbing" top and bottom?") What a wonderful treaure-filled swap you two did!

I'll be giving you another opportunity to do Asian here soon...

Oh how cool!!! What wonderful goodies you got and what a wonderful card and box you made!!! I love wax, I still haven't tried it - I have all the stuff - currently packed away in boxes. Once we get moved I'm definitely going to have to play with it!
