Whoo Hoo!! It's time for the Rosette Swap at Gypsy Brocante!! Although swaps are not something that I do often, every once in a while, you just gotta do it!! This swap is my second in the last year, and I have to say that I have enjoyed participating in both!! The Rosette Swap is def up my alley....I love flowers!!
My partner in the swap is Victoria Resh at Things I Learn From Bear....check it out. From reading her blog, I can see that Victoria is an avid scrapper & craftsperson, someone much like myself!!
I was sooo excited when I received Victoria's Rosette!! I had just got home from work and was dead tired, but I couldn't help myself....I had to have a peek!!
Imagine my surprise when I saw this little beauty!! Victoria....your my rosette is just stunning!! I love it!! I haven't crocheted in years, but I know that this took some serious time, and I am very appreciative of your handiwork!!
Most of you are not aware that I will be moving (same city) very soon......and will be decorating.....a girl's gotta change her style & colors every so often. And this will be the perfect time!! Anyways, my point is, that I was thinking about doing red in my living room!!! And my plan for the rosette is to attach it to a pillow for my sofa....very chic!! I know it will turn out beautiful!! And I will def post pics, when I finish it!!
I just love the depth on the flower, and that huge pearl!! The colors will be perfect for what I have in mind!!
This next pic, is what Victoria received from me:
And a closeup of the flower......
Thank you Victoria!! And thank you Jill!!
Happy swapping,
Lynne
