Winning ways and filling up

Today I thought I'd show you what I purchased yesterday with a lovely gift certificate I won, generously shared by Stephanie, the organizer of the mug/cup&saucer swap.  The certificate was from 'Teavana' which I had never heard of prior to winning.  Luckily there is an actual bricks & mortar store a little over an hour away and DH and I did a road trip yesterday so I could check it out.  Here's what I came home with...
The mugs and one package of tea ended up being free and I simply *had* to buy two more flavours to try out!  Thank you Stephanie - I've already tested out a mug for my morning coffee.  Perfect!

Here are some more fillers I created on
Block 6 of the courtship series...

    Hi, Mary Ann! Beautiful header, sweet.
    Isn't Teavana fun? Always so fragrant, yes, it's difficult to make a decision, I'll take one of everything, thank you.
    Thanks for the tips,

    I love the needlework. I am decorating a bedroom in purples, so I am interested in all things purple at the moment.

    Congratulations on the win. It was a nice reason for a short road trip. I have a "thing" for coffee mugs. More beautiful stitching too!

    Have a great weekend. We are going to have 4 inches of rain, they say.
    xx, Carol

    Congratulations on your winnings. What a lovely field trip you were able to take with your DH. Tea is so calming and refreshing when iced in Summer. Your fillers are lovely. I am behind in reading posts so I shall be going backwards when I finish my comment. Blissful Sipping Tea...

    A road trip that ends up with something to do with tea is always a good thing. So many great links, Mary Anne, thank you. Pretty stitching.......inching closer to 'the big reveal'??

Thank you so much for leaving comments! I appreciate you taking the time out of your busy life to talk to me. It's wonderful to know that someone is actually reading my mumblings and even more fun if I can connect with you and visit your blog.
