Secret Elf goodies!!

I have secret elf goodies... lookie!!! I am part of a fabulous group of women on Splitcoaststampers. We chat in our thread about our ups and downs and celebrate our joys and sorrows together. I'm so grateful to have met these women at convention and have a friendship with them. We decided to do a secret elf for the 12 days of Christmas amongst our group. These are my goodies!! I don't have any idea who sent them since I took the USPS label off before I could see where it was from.







I am so excited to open the first one.. the second picture is the first one!! I get to open it tomorrow. Check back tomorrow to see what it is! so fun! I love my Swapper's anonymous sisters! have a good evening!
