I am participating in Julie's "What's on your workdesk Wednesday" with a shot of a gift from my friend Petra in South Africa! Stop by Julie's blog to join in WOYWW fun!
So let's check out what's on my desk today.
I met Petra Swart at Splitcoaststampers.com when we visited one another's gallery and before we knew it we were emailing regularly. Petra asked me if I could send her something that she couldn't get in South Africa and I was happy to do it, in return she sent me this incredible goodie box. Check out the cool corrugated box decorated with beautiful layered flags. (I love banners and tags!) I have opened the tape and already used some plus there is something missing in this photo and that's the chocolate bar that we couldn't wait to eat! :) The Cappuccino is quite yummy too!
I think it's so fun to see the postage from another country so I included that in this photo as well as the fun stamping Petra added to the packaging!
Peeping just at the right hand corner is a sneaky little peek at the card I just finished for PPRS and will show up on my blog next Monday!
I was absolutely THRILLED to receive one of Petra's gorgeous cards. I love her clean layers and look, more fabulous flags and tags!!!!
Please head over to Petra's Blog to see more of her gorgeous creations!
Thanks For Looking!
This is a special gift from Petra. I love going to her site when she posts. She does some amazing cards. I am so happy for you and her. The card she sent is just gorgeous.

Thanks for your visit earlier - 'busyness' got slowed down this week so I'm afraid the desk is just the same.
