Elegant Gold Butterfly Bookmark or Pink and Black Floral Bookmark?

Not to long ago, Lesley was asking for some feedback for her Etsy Shop, Butterfly Garden Creations.

She asked us to list 10 of our favorite bookmarks on her blog site, also named Butterfly Garden Creations, in the hopes that it would help her to be more prepared for the holiday's. In return we would be entered into a drawing and have the opportunity to win any bookmark she has listed in her shop.

Well, guess who helped out with the marketing research? Yep...  OK, now guess who won the drawing for the bookmark? NO.... It was me!

Of course I could not make up my mind which bookmark I wanted. It was between the Elegant Gold Butterfly Bookmark, pictured above and below, or the Pink and Black  Floral Laminated Bookmark.

So, I told Lesley, to surprise me.  As you can see I received the Elegant Gold Butterfly Bookmark, and could not have been happier. I think the photo above really shows off just how pretty the gold butterflys are. 

Lesley even added my initails to the top. She used an L instead of an F because I am getting married this upcoming January. Wow, that is just right around the corner huh?

Thanks so much for the bookmark Lesley.  I hope that your holidays are filled with sales!

Until Next Time... Take Care !

The Gift

When Glenn and I arrived home this evening I settled in and turned on my computer to check a few emails before calling it a night. One of my many messages was from my new friend, Cindy Atkins. She asked me to come to her blog, I Owe it All to Him, that she had something for me there. I had no idea the gift that I was about to receive.

What was waiting there for me was a message stating that she was having a "Surprise Day" and that it was to congratulate Glenn and I on our engagement. She made us the most beautiful vintage tag. I could never do justice explaining the message or the beauty of the tag that she has created for us. She is such a talented artist. Her work definitely inspired me to create the inspirational bookmark in the photo above.

Please visit Cindy at her blog, I Owe it All to Him, to view The Gift that she has made for Glenn and I. Oh, and one more thing, please don't forget to leave her a comment. 

Glenn and I are so blessed!

Until next time... Take Care!
