Cheer Up Swap - Loving My Cheer Package

The Cheer Up Swap was hosted by my bloggy friend Brandy of You Don't Know and Shelia of A Little Dirt Never Hurt. Thanks so much ladies for hosting this swap. It was a great first experience swaping a fun filled package and making a new bloggy friend.
My swap buddy was Angie of Antics with Angie. She has a fun blog filled with movie and book reviews, 101 goals in 1001 Days (love this idea...and I may have to steal/borrow it) and lots of fun little blurps about her life. It was great getting to know her.

On my way back from my walk on Friday I found a package on my doorstep from my swap buddy Angie of Antics with Angie. I didn't want to open it until Angie got her's, but she emailed me and told me to go ahead since she wouldn't get her package till Tuesday (silly holiday). The package was driving me nuts sitting there unopened, so I went ahead and listened to her.
My package was filled with pretty goodies wrapped in tissue paper and a cute card, which I'm totally putting on my fridge with the motivation collage I'm working on.
Each goodie came with a sweet little note attached, explaining each gift. Here is what I got:
*A 6x6 book of beautiful colored cardstock - LOVE. I haven't done traditional scraping in forever and flipping through this book of colors makes me want to tackle the four million pictures I have sitting in boxes in my closet.
*A Vera Bradley notebook - which I also love, cause you can NEVER EVER have too many notebooks. Even better when it's Vera Bradley. :o)
*Lindt Lindor Truffles - They are Angie's favorite truffles. Mine too! I'm totally hiding them somewhere so my sneaky 2 year old doesn't find them. Or maybe I'll just eat them...then he'll NEVER find them!*Bath and Body Works Sweet Pea set - I hadn't tried this scent before, but it's beautiful!
Three great and girly smelling candles.
*Pink and fabulous cupcake fabric. LOVE LOVE LOVE. I'm thinking it would make an adorable apron or American Girl Doll dress for my niece.
And just because I made a digi page with more pictures. (The journaling is the same as my blog entry...don't strain your eyes!) Created using: New Lifestyles Challenge Freebie Template by Edeline Marta Design and Little Things by Juicy Scrap
Thanks Angie for being such a wonderful bloggy friend and swap buddy!!
