| beautiful handmade card from Hope! |
A few days after I sent my kit off to Hope, I received a package of my own in the mail. The first thing I opened was an incredibly beautiful and thoughtful handmade card. She even stamped my name onto a metal plate and affixed it to the front! How awesome is that?

The next thing I saw was a trio of decorated-by-hand boxes, tied up with lovely ribbons and lace. Inside the boxes were seemingly endless little packages, wrapped up in hand-printed (of course!) brown paper. I was already thrilled.. and I hadn't even gotten to the beads yet!

| soup's on! |
AND FINALLY.... Here is a picture, albeit a grainy and color-distorted one, of the actual bead soup I received. I wanted to leave some of it mysterious, so this is just a taste of the awesomeness. Note the handmade labels. I just love this girl!
I feel so very lucky to have Hope as my partner, and I just cannot wait to get started playing with all of the gorgeous, amazing, rad, terrific, and thoughtful goodies she sent me.
Don't forget to stay tuned for the final reveal! The actual blog hop takes place on September 17th, so mark your calenders, and be prepared to hop through the three-hundred-and-some (!) participating blogs.
Have a great day!

Lucky you to get such an awesome bead soup partner! I love how she paid special attention to even the smallest detail such as a handmade card and tage.
I'm excited for the reveal party!
Yummy! It makes me feel bad that I threw mine into little baggies and shoved them into the box....Not actually. It's all personal style...Love your soup, have fun!!
I know, I'm so lucky :) After seeing all of the thought and attention to detail she put into packaging my soup, I also felt badly that I only used little plastic baggies! I hope I can do this soup justice!
another great soup, can't wait to see what comes of it....great colours.....

I think it's so awesome when people make the packaging so pretty, too. I don't seem to have that knack!
Oh you got some TREASURES! Have fun -- and you can make more than one thing!
Hope is awesome, and I really did get some treasures. Thank you so very much, Lori, for putting this all together! I think you just changed what I'm going to make by suggesting I make more than one thing! :)
That soup is awesome. Can't wait for the reveal...and my soup:-)
