WOYWW - Happy mail from my Secret Santa!

Good afternoon to all my wonderful friends at WOYWW. Today saw the start of the new school year here in South Africa, so for me it was up early and off to school. I just stumbled into the house, dead tired. On the way home I decided to make one more stop at the Post Office in the hope that my parcel from my secret Santa has finally arrived. And it did!!!! Wonderful timing, I needed a lift after a very long day. All the way from Finland, came this wonderful parcel from Siina Klytseroff.
 
 It took every ounce of willpower not to rip it open right there in the Post Office and wait till I got home to take pictures. I belong to a Facebook group for the Make it Crafty stamp company and the lovely owner hosted a Secret Santa group where you were given the name of another member and had to send a card featuring one of her stamps and some goodies if you wanted to. My Secret Santa was very generous, but I thought I was going to cray when I opened the parcel to find she had lovingly and beautifully wrapped several other presents.
Here is the beautiful card I got. Trust me, it is SOOO much more gorgeous in real life! 
And here is the photo of all the wonderful gifts that she sent, I can not begin to thank her enough! So many nice things there, you can expect to see some of it on my cards real soon, 
That's it for me, I have some gorgeous stash to go and play with! See you next week, hopefully with some of my own craftiness.

    Hi Tertia,

    Happy mail is ALWAYS fun and lifts the spirit. So glad it was the perfect end to your day. The card is so cute - love the big blue eyes.

    I'm glad I'm not the only one that wasn't crazy about knitting up the ruffle scarves. They are all the rage here and I wasn't even tempted until I saw the skein in the local high school colors.

    Thank you for visiting me already!

    Happy WOYWW
    Peace, Kay (3)

    Lucky you. If that card is more awesome in person - it must be astounding because it looks great in the picture. Congrats on your gifts. April #85

    Wow, your secret Santa treated you very well. Everything, including the card, are gorgeous. Of course, no one deserves to be treated special more than you.

    Sorry I'm late visiting. I'm still having blogger problems. But the good news is, I went from 16 to 13. None of that matters, though, since you've already visited.
