Sock Swap

My friend Paula at Little Bit of Scrappin begged,  wait begged, wait I mean told me about a Sock Swap at PCCrafter Message board...I used to do lots of swaps here and I had not done the sock swap that I can remember and since she begged  , I mean told me about it and asked me to join I decided to go along with it...so here is my lovely creation and the socks I swapped with my partner Allene ( awake on the pccrafter message board)  I made the container from a strawberry container

it ended up looking like this

and I filled it with this

All graphics come from PCCrafter. They sell many kinds of graphics with severeal different artists.

so my friend Allene...here is your gift...I hope you like it and look forward to my swap in return..

Happy Halloween
