International Christmas Swap 2011

I did join the International Christmas Swap from organized by Catarina from /http://leminisdicockerina.blogspot.com/

This is what Cristina Diego made for me, a wonderful decorated Christmas tree with real working light! and that's not all, she also made a lovely bowl full of Christmas sweets, abunch of flowers and she also included some nice old fashioned mode pictures (not on the photo). I feel so spoiled, thank you Cristina. I love it!

Because my photo is coming out blurry all the time, i don't know why, i borrowed Cristina's photo.

So you girls and some guys can see how much Cristina spoiled me.

This is what i made for Kaisa, i had so much fun making it.

I also received by mail(i know a blurry photo again)this crocheted wreath made by Carmen,
i joined her give-away and she made some extra prizes, so i was very lucky.

If you want some more eye-candy, klick on the colored names of this lovely ladies and you have a link to there blogs.

Hope you all did have a nice Christmas, mine was wonderfull and as you can see i was very spoiled.

Hugs

My Christmas roombox, your Christmas and more

This is a roombox i made years ago but i still love it, even my skills wore not that good back then it really have a cosy Christmas feeling.

The tree is made from pipe-cleeners and the lamps from a Bic pen with buttons and beads, the woodburner is made from old earrings and the cards are all having names and wishes from my family members.

 I hope you all did have a lovely Christmas.

I did have a lovely but very busy time.

My family was at my place and i made luch and dinner for 9 people.

At Christmas eve i opened the Swap gift and the extra give-away prize i won, oh they are so lovely and i am so spoiled but more about that tomorrow. I first have to make better pictures of those, the pictures i made of my gifts are to blurry to publish.

Update about Christmas Swap

First i wanna wish all you lovely creative and friendly readers a Happy and Healthy New Year.

I know i am very late with that but that's because i was not blogging for a while.

So i also have some catching up to do.

I was participating at the Christmas Swap hosted by Catarina.

My Swap partner was Lisette and this is what she made for me:

   

 She made some lovely mini's and as a bonus she gave me this Lucky Santa.

Let me translate what's on the card:

The bonequinas are made in Braziel.

If you wear one on your haert it gave you health.

With a bonequina in your wallet you spend less money.

In the car he offers protection.

And.....if you have a bonequina in your pocket, you receive lots of passion.

Mmmmm, now i don't know where i want to put him.

So he is protecting my dollshouse at the moment.

 She made this lovely autumn wreath

 and very beautifull wooden toys .

The doll really has movable arms and legs!

I am so lucky to have her as a swappartner, she really spoild me.

 Here my little girl is holding the tiny snowman.

 and my other girl is playing with the pig on wheels.

I made some mini's for Rosamarie 

and she was happy with them,she wrote about them  on her blog.

Check out her lovely blogpage.

She makes real nice mini's too and she has also some nice crosstich charts for miniature embroidery.

So now your up to date.

I did not make any mini's yet in this year..

As soon as i make something new, i will post it.

Merry Christmas

Some people create real works of art there.

Don't say i didn't warn you.

Decorating the Christmas tree

This scene i made a couple of years ago, although the pictures are a little bit bad, i still want to show you.

They look like my mum and dad.
