September's Secret Sister Swap

I always look forward to receiving my swaps in the mail every month. Last month Jenny Kato was my Secret Sister.  She made me an awesome journal for my family and I to record our blessings and thanksgivings in (All the pages, washi tape, and tabs coordinated with each other.)

and sent me some beautiful bling and

Along with the journal and RAK she wrote me a message in a super cute card  that really touched my heart. 

She mentioned to me that this was her very first swap.  I am glad that I was able to be the very first person that she was paired with.  Of course I like receiving crafty handmade gifts and RAK, but what I enjoy the most are the messages that come with the packages.  I always like to include a special message when I send out my swaps.  I was Secret Sister to Jayne Converse.  I made her this card

and sent her a RAK.

I sent her a little extra because she has always been very thoughtful and generous in sending me gifts.  I also sent her a little extra to say "thanks" for keeping in touch with me and for her prayers and encouragement.  Thanks again Jenny for being such an awesome Secret Sister to me.  I hope that we can keep in touch.  Jayne, I am glad that my package made it safely to you.  I hope that we can continue to keep in touch.  Big hugs to both of you!  Happy crafting to both of you and all of you out there that have taken time to read this post.
