The Minister's Daughter Soldered Matchbox


Hello my dear friends,
at the moment I'm trying to use up what I have lying around at my studio and here is the result. Meet the Minister's daughter .



Here is a closer look at the matchbox. Can you see the tiny cross? For some reason she looked like a Minister's daughter to me:)

Some days ago I received a big surprise in the mail from dear  Katherine @Chatelet who won my last giveaway.How sweet is that?



Look at the beautiful box Katherine created.


A peek of what is inside.


The most beautifully wrapped chocolate,lavender lace sachet and another beautiful box.


Wonder what is inside:)



Hidden in the box was this gorgeous altered bottle. Love all the lace and pearls she used.
Thank you so much,dear Katherine - I just love everything you sent me and felt so very special opening up your gifts.If you haven't visited this talented gal please go on over and have a look.

Thank you so much for stopping by and for taking the time to leave a comment. I'm still trying to catch up as my computer crahed but lucky for me we had visitors over the weekend and it was fixed.

Wishing you all a wonderful start of the week my dear friends.

Hugs and love,
