The arrival of one cupcake and three matryoshka dolls





These pretties arrived yesterday in my post.
A hand-sewn cupcake and three hand-sewn matryoshka dolls.

And the story goes like this:

I had taken part in a giveaway by Manuela of Lilla Svalan
You know what happened I won a prize! Yep!

Here some photos of the unpacking of the parcel:


What's behind the lovely napkin?

Revealing the secret...

Matryoshka doll No. 1

No. 2

The smallest - No. 3


Pretty cupcake without calories but lovely flowers

And here Manuela's proof that it is all made by her:


Such lovely things made with much love and care! I am so lucky! 
I hope the matryoshka dolls will like me and my home!
 Thanks a lot, Manuela! I am sending you big kisses and big hugs!
 Visit Manuela's blog! I admire here a lot - she seems to be a strong woman with lots of power
 - there is always some crafting, gardening, renovating in her house going on. 

Happy Saturday evening! Enjoy those special hours!
