Way back in December Julia and I agreed to do a swap as we loved each others work. Elkie helped me choose which of Julia's gorgeous dolls was to be swapped for a bear I had made that Julia had fallen in love with, Sebastion. It didn't take Elkie long to choose Julia's fabulous ' Christmas Dreamer' doll. We both have the same taste....FANTASTIC!!!!
Little did we know that the post was going to be very slow....weeks and weeks of patient waiting, hoping he was not lost or broken and fainally last week he arrived!!!
I was absolutely THRILLED when I opened the box. I knew Elkie was going to be soooo excited when she got home from school so I told her that once she was changed that there was a surprise in the lounge room.
These are the pics I got as she yelled out to tell me what she had found!!! I think they say it all!!!
Thank you so much Julia!!! We are Thrilled to bits!!! Elkie loves the gifts you put in just for her and I LOVE your fabulous doll!!!
