Lace and pearls

Morning girls
This week seems to have flown by, I can't believe the weekend is upon us.  I think I've lost a day or two somewhere along the line. Here we are at Friday already and another challenge on Totally Papercrafts but before I tell you about the challenge I've something else to share.
Yesterday I received a mahooosive box that I wasn't expecting and couldn't for the life of me figure out where it came from.  Once opened, guess what I found?????

A GRAND CALIBUR

I was gobsmacked and racked me brains thinking if I'd entered a blog candy or something but knew they wouldn't have my address etc.  Anway, I went to check the DT yahoo group for Sparkle n Sprinkle last night to find that they have now teamed up with Spellbinders - ie they will and have already designed stamps to fit their nesties etc. So, as a thank you all of us DT girlies got a grand calibur free gratis.  Now is that fantastic or is that fantstic.  I'm jumping for joy here lol.  All I need now is a lottery win to go on a spending spree!!!
So, now I've got all that off me chest I'd better tell you about our challenge this week.  It's a nice girlie one chosen by the lovely Carol
