Anyway, it came a couple of days ago, and I've finally had a chance to photograph it.
It was all nicely packaged up with a cute bird card - thank you Maddy!
What immediately struck me was this combination of colours, not one I've worked with before...

but these are my favourites (I don't know what they are, but they're beauties!)
Hmm, can see a pair of earrings already.... this is going to be fun!
