Christmas Matchbox swap with Lilia

I really enjoyed Christmas crafting this year.
I was happy to swap Christmas matchboxes with Lilia from Flea Market Studio.

I have admired Lilia's style for years (seriously! years), so I was delighted to swap with her.
Lilia sent me an assortment of vintage Christmas treats.

She sent me pieces in an aqua and red color scheme. It's so pretty! and so different. I will have to decorate like that in Christmases to come.

I am still working on my December Daily, so some of these pretty papers and bits will be used in there.

I sent Lilia a playful box in traditional Christmas colors. I loved that color scheme this year!

I enjoyed putting this box together for Lilia, but it didn't feel like enough so I also made her a mini Santa paper bag album. You can see it above.

I also sent Lilia a small, decorative matchbox with a variety of vintage Dennison labels... similar the one I bought from Hope a few months ago. You can see the ones I sent above, as well.

I sent her 2 of the tiny books from my etsy shop, as well.

I have one swap left for the year, and I don't plan to sign up for much in 2012. I'm taking a little breather from swaps. I have other projects in mind for the coming year, and I am looking forward to sharing them with you. I love all of the current posts focusing on the new year, the resolutions, the organzation, etc. Be back soon with more.
