Something New On Monday #5

One day last week I had mentioned
all of the great treats I received from
the Halloween Tag Swappers. 

I had plans for these goodies.

This is what I created with the wrapping tissue paper,
and some of the trinkets.

I added my own scrapbook paper
for the rosettes,
and the frame is a chipboard piece
that I probably purchased 10 years ago.

This was so much fun to make,
and I now have yet another treasure to remind me
of all those kind and talented ladies that joined my swap.

I also had enough to create these fun tags.
I always tuck a little thank you into my etsy sales orders,
and these are perfect for October.
 
I still have a stack of fabric, laces, ribbons and trims
from my swaps.
I'll save those for another day's playtime.

  1. Kimberly,
    what a fun and wonderful idea to make a "collage" with all the little gifts you get from swappers-
    your owl is wonderful, and the tags too-I love the orange ones-so dramatic!
    Wish you a lovely new week, dear.

  13. Kim, you don't cease to amaze me. I love what you've done here, a memory from little bits and pieces. How special indeed.
    I stopped by to thank you AGAIN for hosting that perfectly delightful Halloween tag swap. I just received my tags today, and they put an instant smile on my face. Your tag was...well, let's just say spooky indeed. ;) And I absolutely LOVE the way you held them together.
    I only have one more party request...my fingers are crossed for a Christmas/Holidays swap. ;)
    XOXO's,
    Marcia
