Sorry I'm running behind again! I've been in La-La Land lately....busy making gifts and then both of my parents have had some major health problems this week so I have been mentally distracted. Please keep my mom and especially my dad in your prayers. Mom had a stint put in the other day and my Daddy found out his cancer is getting worse and he has to have surgery on Monday. My parents being sick is really hard on me and quite frankly, I am not the least bit prepared for the inevitable....so please keep us in your thoughts. Thanks!

Linda made the tiniest little ornament and it says
"See the Artist Within"

Elena made this little box with a snowman charm on the front

On the inside Elena painted the word "Hope"
and then there is a pin and
the cutest little beaded bee charm.

received my box.
I finished 34 ornaments to send to my mom and here are 5 of them. It has been really nice seeing everyone's matchboxes and coming up with some new ideas. I used photo's and stamps on the outside of these boxes and then added some little handmade Christmas Cards and some prepurchased ornies in some of the boxes.

You are not going to believe it, but I found this great site for matchboxes, and realized it was a swap. I thought of you and copied it to send to you. But I see on your sidebar, you already found it. Funny!! It looks like a really fun one. I love all the different ideas, so charming. Have a blessed Christmas week, Lisa
Such beautiful matchboxes- all of them! I think my favorite is the little garland of tiny cards that you made- brilliant!
