Before I begin my long awaited post :) I want to thank everyone from my heart for sending so much love to our wonderful friend Lorraine during her loss...she is such an amazing woman and I know she appreciates every ones love and concern during this time. She has a loving husband, children, family and friends that I know are there for her in her time of need, but I think knowing so many of us out here are thinking of her, must have made her heart smile, I know it did mine. Besos & huge hugs to all of you!
In Decemeber I won a wonderful Giveaway from the beautiful Rebecca of Rebecca for Vintage Living but to tell you what a heart she is, it was her Birthday...yet she did a giveaway for all her followers...see she is a total heart :) Anyways, the day before I got sick, a beautiful package came in the mail...then with me feeling so crappy...I actually forgot all about it...I know can you believe it!!! So when I opened it, I was just soo thrilled because I got one of her beautiful stars with some lil pretties :) and you know I love her Christmas stars... with all the creams and mochas, but I also LOVE the star I got, the colors are so rich and the materials she chose are so luxurious...I LOVE velvet & vintage trims...without knowing it....she sent me such a beautiful piece of art for my lil bebe art studio :) I know...lucky me right ! I feel so bad though because I know my pictures do not do my gifts justice....Rebecca amor, I am soo sorry for that....But I know, that you know....I LOVE them :)
This is the gorgeous package I saw when I opened my box...who am I kidding, mr wonderful opened the box and handed me this beauty :) I was so weak from the bad cold/flu, fever & body aches, that my fingers hurt from trying to pull the tabs apart on the box...(awww I love sympathy when I am sick...thank you :) lol
Look at the details of this gorgeous package!!! (clik on pictures to enlarge) the flower is so beautiful as is the tag that she made for me...oooh another beautiful tag for my collection :) If anyone wants to send me some of their own tags...I will hang them up in my bebe studio to display their beauty :) (shamless I know....but hey in my defense I have like 4 tags now and until Dawn told me what ATC's are...I had no idea, I thought it was like an art club :) lol
This is the gorgeousness (is that even a word?) that was inside...Look at the colors, I wish you could see how beautiful it really is, again so sorry for the pictures Rebecca.... The colors are in rich jewel tones...the textures and trims just gorgeous! I think this is vintage silver metal tinsel...although I would have to ask my dear friend Rebecca because I don't know too much about beautiful trims other than I LOVE them :)
Again please, clik on the pictures to enlarge, mr wonderful helped me take all these...so I guess I can blame him...Ha!!! I know I am such a goober...had I taken them I know I would have cut things out :) you should see how many pictures we have that have body parts missing lol Thank goodness for digital...processing pictures was getting expensive with all my booboos :) look at this lovely necklace I got too, you should see how beautiful the stone colors are...
Here are all my beautiful gifts...lucky me...I know :)

these are some of my favorite girls ... their hearts are big and generous.
how sweet of you to show them off and link us all to their beautiful sites.
your litle goodies should make you feel all better.
Ah your were spoiled! Great presents from Rebecca! Thanks for pointing us at the other give aways, but I am only signing up when I do know the blogowner well, otherwise I wouldn't dare, would you? Except for OWOH of course! Have a lovely day Rose!
Hi Rose, Sweetie! I'm so sorry that you had caught a flu and felt so aweful! Rebecca's package came in the right moment then to cheer you up. The gifts are beautiful! I love the color of the star. The rose and the necklace are sp wonderful too! Enjoy all those pretty presents!
To answer your question about that rhinestone thingy: It had been a tiny belt buckle once. The "25 frs" piece of cardboard came from the spine of an old French dictionary. It had been the price of the book in French Francs back then and it just fitted into my little belt buckle frame. Then I had added a piece of chain and now I use it as a decoration for a bottle.
Hopefully you will be fully recoverd soon, dear Rose!
Hugs and besos,
Julia
Hello dearest Rose,
I am trying very hard not to be jealous over here. I have wanted a star from Rebecca so bad! This is beautiful...you lucky little thing you! I can't think of anybody who more deserves these beautiful gifts than you though. That necklace is stunning and will be lovely around your pretty little neck.
Thank you for always sharing the news of the giveaways. I think it is so generous of you.
I want to thank you for the lovely words you left for me about angels. Your Ita must have been an amazing woman. Wise beyond words, just like you my friend. I am so glad that you had someone in your life like her to guide you. May your angels always be close by.
hugs

Hi Sweetie!
You are too kind, thank you for such a wonderful post. You are so generous and I am so lucky to have found a friend in you.
I will have to go over to French Charming, the others I have entered. Thank you for the info. I have a workshop tonight so it will be late by the time I get home but I have your papers ready to go. Oh, and yes the trim is old on the star, actually the velvet is from the Victorian era and so is the trim. Just fyi :)
I hope you have a lovely day and thanks for letting me join the earth shakers club! Really... I wouldn't like that all the time.
Blessings

What beautiful gifts you received. You are not the only goober as I don't even know what ATCs are. There seems to be a name for everything and so many products I know nothing about. Lots of fabulous giveaways out there. Hope that you are all better now and having a lovely, relaxing weekend. Blessings, Tammy
So So Pretty- I wish I was crafty...
