Tumbler Buddy #3 Hot/Cold Swap

After threatening the postman with bodily harm these last few days, my missing Tumbler Buddy package finally arrived today from the UK only 5 days after the scheduled blog hop where we were to share what we got! That blog hop (that I missed participating in) is where I had also planned to unveil my new personal blog...Anastasia's Arts!  But better late than never so here goes....welcome to my blog site of crafty creations and other artful finds! 

I joined the Simply Betty Fan Group on face book a few weeks ago, was fascinated by the international makeup of its members and quickly decided to participate in my first SB event--the Tumbler Buddy #3 Hot/Cold Swap. I have since learned a whole new vocabulary, have seen the work of some very talented people and have made some new overseas friends in the UK.

I was lucky enough to have been paired with Erin from the UK as my Tumbler Buddy, and we have both learned that the UK Postie is not the speediest of delivery methods and that it is a wise idea to take a photo of what you're sending prior to sealing the box just in case it goes MIA as mine did! But after much anticipation for my box of goodies to arrive, my excitement and waiting wasn't for naught...check out all the wonderful things I got!  Thank you Erin!

Yummy goodies, hot chocolate and a kitty tumbler! 

Can't wait to try the Horlicks and of course the chocolates too! 

Some beautiful new acrylic stamp sets and embellishments

along with some fun socks and a cupcake stand!

And a wonderful handmade card in my favorite colors

made with a  Simply Betty Digi!
