Card swap

I took part in a card swap with other members of the European street team and these are the cards I got: a very Christmassy one from Neus from Barcelona and a super cute one from Kasia from Poland :-)
It's such fun to get snail mail and double the fun when it's a surprise!

The nephew is celebrating his name-day today and wants a cake and candle :-)

Wishing you a lovely week,

The spinning top

 

A package arrived for me today!
It was this spinning top by the TheWanderingWorkshop and the first thing I did of course was to give it a spin!
The nephew will be also testing it but I'm sure he will love it, it just turns and turns like it will never stop :-)
Thank you so much Athina and Jose and Tina for hosting the giveaway,

Kanpai

In the mailbox the photograph I won in the Interview Series hosted at Ana's blog. I chose my favorite photograph from Sara's shop Kanpai. It came in re-used packaging with little notes on it that made me smile, a hand written postcard from Portugal and the photo itself.
I picked a window (no surprise there!) and as Sara wrote it is taken in Argentina in a village called Humahuaca. The photo is fantastic, beautiful colors and texture, I just love it!
Now I have a little part of the world on my wall :-)
Wishing you a great week,

Suprise mail!

When my sister bought the tickets in the raffle organized by Estella we did it mostly to support Sandra and didn't really think about winning. But when the list of winners was published and Georgia saw her name in it she was so excited, it's her first time winning something online :-)

And today she was so surprised to receive her prize: an envelope filled with amazing art from Louise! She won the print titled Best Friends but there was also a little red envelope packed with extra awesome goodies as you can see. The packaging was simply fantastic and the handwritten note is such a lovely personal addition!

Do check out her shop LouiseArtStudio, she is an Etsy seller I would definitely recommend buying from it's very obvious she puts a lot of work and thought into everything!
Wishing you a lovely day,
Aleka

Suprise Mail

I've had my eye on Ana's wearables collection for a while, I love the fact that it's not just jewelry but a piece of art turned into jewelry.
And today I got my favorite one in the mail, yay!
You can see her entire wearables collection right here but be sure to check out her entire shop, it's filled with eye candy :-)
Have a great week,
Aleka
