Happy Birthday Critters!! xx

May I please share with you my wonderful and totally unexpected birthday surprises?  

...from two dear forum members,   my best trollfriend/fellow-mother-of-dragons  

and a person I secretly (well, not so secretly) admire as a collector and a truly lovely human being.



...upon opening the package, you might imagine my surprise to see that I suddenly went from having

NO critters     to    TWO adorable critters!   LOOOOVE THEM!!



The amazing panda from my best trollie-dragon mother (you might even recognize it from another zoo )





and a matching turtle and catherine michiels silk from the most admirable-"buddha" of beads.




tried this arrangement first...






Now wearing like this (still in the stack).




They must live together and for now will rest on late summer/welcome fall combos ...


THANK YOU!!! dear ladies.   I love their colors and little expressions and limbs, lol. There really aren't enough words to express my thanks and amazement at your generosity. You made my birthday so special.     (Please, no one tell my bf or family, but these were my favorite prezzies!!) My heart is full from your thoughtfulness ... but I will try to stop gushing and gushing...
