Wow! I haven't done any swapping for a long time and this month I have been in 2 swaps....very different but equally fun.Deb of Garage Sale Gal, (yes, the same Deb who I just sent cards to in the Swap For All Seasons swap) along with Sandy of 512 Lake Street, suggested this swap a few months ago.
Erica is a collector of vintage things and her favorite is Christmas....I'm telling you this to help you understand my swap package for Erica. I followed the guidelines for the Spoolie and Erica said she loved Halloween. I hope she likes the sweet side of Halloween...
I love all of the sweet Mary Engelbreit Halloween images and chose this one of Ann Estelle (my all-time favorite) to create Erica's Spoolie.
Too cute to spook is what the little tag says. Do you like the flying bat??? LOL!
I could never come close to finding the kind of vintage treasures that Erica does at the many Estate Sales she visits so I decided to make something using vintage images and an old Bingo card. I included the vintage look mug (and some other things I forgot to photograph) and some yummy local chocolate!
Erica has been struggling with her RA lately and her package to me has been delayed a bit. Please hop over and wish her well.
I t was a pleasure to be your partner in this swap, Erica!
Thank you to Deb for all of her juggling in getting everyone matched up.
Thanks for visiting....I love it when you let me know you've been here!
xoxo

Your ME spoolie is very sweet! Erica will love it and the very nice paper goodies and love the JOY mug! The little bat makes the spoolie!

The spoolie looks great! The addition of the flying bat really adds something. All the little extra touches you put on things amazes me. I haven't learned that art yet... maybe one day I will.
These spoolie creations are so much fun! I took a peek back at the spoolies you shared in April...these little things just make me happy!
I'm going to need to try making one!!
Love that Bingo card and mug...they make a cute pair of gifts.
What a fun swap!!! I love the spoolie, and I have always loved ME myself....so cute!!
What a great idea to use the ME images!! A very cute spoolie and so very clever!!
Thank you so very much Joyce! I just posted about our swap! It was so much fun, and you were so generous to me!
