Charming Travelers GIVEAWAY - Riding the Red Line

*****THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED.  CHECK OUT WHO WON HERE.  *****

It feels like eons since I've been a part of a swap or won a giveaway.  No more!  Lucky me, I just kinda hit that jackpot and got both at the same time.  :)

Ever heard of Diane at From Blank Pages?  That creative gal thought it would be fun to do a traveling charm swap, the idea being that a pack of charms would travel to a home where the recipient would take out what they wanted, replenish the stack with some more charms, and then send it along to someone else.  And then that person would do the same and send it on to the next person and so on and so on.

Oh, happy day to me . . . I became the most recent beneficiary after entering Tiffany's giveaway at the last charm pack's home - Pinks Sweet Treats.

I've been involved in some charm swaps in the past, and I have a nice little stash going.  But as it goes with these things, while they are all lovely some things are more your style than others.  I mean, am I right?  So here was a perfect chance to pick up a few pieces that are more my style and pass along a few that are less *me* to someone who would more appreciate their charm (har har).  I just love this idea.

Love it.

Here are a few pics of the bits of joy I took from the pile.  A sweet pink-y stack (that one on the right totally reminds me of all the delicate pretty stuff over at NanaCompany):

And a little brown/green/yellow action (me digs the woodgrain-y ones especially):
