Mosaic Monday...

Hi, thanks so much for stopping in this Mosaic Monday. One of the Yahoo Groups that I belong to is Luner Dreams and we're having a "Getting to Know You ATC Swap". I can't show you mine yet because I haven't placed them in the mail and I don't want to ruin the surprise for everyone else, but as soon as I do I will post their pictures so yous can take a peek to. There's a total of 5 of us in that particular swap and I got one of mine in the mail yesterday from Jan. She also made me the most gorgeous card! I was so happy and so impressed by both! Thanks Jan! So here's what she sent me:


 This is the front of the card that Jan had made me. It's just gorgeous! She did a wonderful job on this! I only wish I would be able to do something as well as this! Trust me, this is beautiful!
 This is the ATC. I was amazed when I seen this, what awesome work!


 When I opened up the card this is what I saw:


 This is the back of the ATC:

If you go to Annie Howes Keepsakes Etsy Shop you can also purchase some of what Jan had used to make these gorgeous pieces that she sent me.

Now, here's 2 of my seven grandchildren. Jon, my oldest grandson  and Brandan my 3rd oldest grandson.



Then last but not least my new kid on the block, Bella. As cute and sweet as she looks...boy she's a handful! I sure mis-named her! lol
 I want to thank Mary at Little Red House for being our most gracious and very sweet hostess! If yous would be so kind to stop in at Mary's and say hi and then look at our friends here in Blogland mosaic pictures I'm sure that you'll love them as much as I do.

I also wanted to share something very special to me. My friend Joni from The EtsyBead Street Team and also at Bead-space lit a candle for me. If you would stop in at her Etsy
Shop you'll find her outstanding and gorgeous contemporary and traditional Native American Jewelry. She's a fabulous and beadartist and a wonderful friend! Joni is, Creek-Cherokee, a beadweaver, a jewelry designer and a silversmith. Joni is very talented and a wonderful person! Thank you so much Joni, this meant the world to me! You can also visit Joni at her blog, Trail of Treasures.


I have to tell yous that my heart is just filled with so much friendship and love. Everyone makes me feel so good and yous have all touched my heart in so many ways. I want to thank everyone for your tenderness, love, caring, prayers, friendship healing thoughts and positive energies. For all your cards, calls, gifts and genuine sisterly love! Yous all mean the world to me, thank you! It's wonderful to be a part of this great family!
Happy Mosaic Monday, thank you all so much for stopping in today! Until the next
time, bead happy...
Hugs and happy beading...
Bobbi

Very pretty ATC, Bobbi & I really like the different mosaics you've made. The jigsaw puzzle is especially cool!

What lovely mosaics Bobbi. Love the pictures.

Susan said...

Very beautiful ATC gift, Bobbi. It really is. I'd love to be able to do something like that too... but I'm just a sew-it kind of gal. ;-)

Your grandson's are, well, don't tell them I said this, cute. That's a very cute picture of them. (And guys hate being called cute, don't they? Especially teens and younger. I know my son prefers to stay away from that word. ;-)

Oh my gosh, Belle is adorable. What a great mosaic of photos of her.

I am going to swing by your friend, Joni's shop and check it out, too.

Thank you for such a lovely post and I do hope you are doing better.

Hugs,
Susan

Thanks for your visit, Bobbi! Grandmothering is such a special blessing. Aren't we fortunate?
Love your blog. I don't know anything at all about beads but I am curious as to what you actually do with them.
