My prices arrived!! :-)) - and a better view of the flash

I am speachless and overwhelmed - I have never won any prices in my life before and taking part at this event was of pure fun but I have never believed I could win anything (well hoping is something different - isn´t it..... )
I have been collecting the beads for my christmas bracelet for over three years now and since this christmas time I have never worn it because the years before it wasn´t nearly finished. I´ve got the last two missing beads this christmas - the snow and the stars- so now it is done!. It is going to be a permenant one - of course.
Winning the chocolat was so fantastic but wining the Lab-Fantasie-Necklace is beyond words - sorry, but my english is striking at that point.....
I´ve got the package today - everything was so nicely wrapped and a beautiful card layed on top:



Thank you so much Sita for this dream come true!! It is so generous to donate such a price and you can be sure it will always have a very special place in my heart! The labradorit stone has a very special and personal meaning to me!! (For many years I´ve had a simple lab-stone in my pocket to carry around).
Many thanks to splinty and naranja for running this so very special event!!

And here is my first try:

I thought the tulip to be very much in place here..... (All beads are TB)

Thank you all and have a wonderful and Happy New Year!!!


Second try and a better view of the flash:

(all silvers except RBF owl are TB, two glass beads on necklace are summersday -on bangle is from Christa Keitzer)

Great prizes - exquisite and delicious!

Aztec looks very good sitting atop the labradorite pendant.

Your joy in getting this prize makes me happy that you won!
Congratulations, Mabel.

Congratulations, Mabel.

Thank you so very much for your kind words!!

Wonderful to see your prizes arrived!

Hope you like the choccies... they wouldn't last a day with me. And you did a beautiful combo with your necklace. It was one of my favs from the stones we got as it has a blue, green flash and a bit brown in it.
A magical stone for sure....

Looking forward to see many more necklace designs!

Ah congratulations Mabel...Fabulous prize and the beads you chose are really lovely

Congratulations again with your winning!

Beautiful first try

Enjoy your prize
The necklace looks absolutely fabulous.

Please, no need to apologize. Before I get a pic 'right' I've made a dozen at least... especially at this time of the year as I don't have a professional studio set up and only use daylight for my pics.

Wonderful combination and a great prize, love the FN with this beautiful stone

This is beautiful

Congratulations! Your necklace design is lovely and the labradorite FN is special indeed!
