A Lovely Surprise…

Two days ago a lovely pink box loaded with goodies arrived at my house…special delivery via my grandparents!

When my auntie heard about my blog, she kindly got together some gems, a few tested and a few unopened and sent them in a delightful pink box to me! I’ll be seeing her in about a week so I’m experimenting with as much as possible whilst I can. It’s so exciting because..well a box full of awesomeness is here and I need to take this opportunity to try stuff I’d not normally buy myself (some due to price and some due to the fact that I’d never thought about that before, I’m only 18 after-all and have a lot to learn!)
Inside the box was this gorgeous little cupcake card with a message addressed to The Blushing Giraffe:

You can imagine I was beaming from ear-to-ear! Here’s a sneak peak of what you might be seeing featured on my blog over the coming days and weeks –

THANKYOU <3 Such a kind thought, I really appreciate it and I can’t wait to test out the rest (I’ve delved into a few things already!)
