My invisible friend

As you may (or may not) know, I'm a proud member of the Etsy Latino Team. This team is full of gorgeous, talented and kind women, and I don't know about other teams, but we really help and support each other on this amazing handmade path (wow, that "handmade path" sounds so awesome!)

So, to celebrate holidays, we participated on what we call "Amiga invisible" (translation would be "invisible friend", but the game is probably something like "Secret Santa"...? not sure). The thing is, you have to give a gift to your friend (wich will be chosen randomly from all the players), you have to give her/him a gift, and then she/he has to guess who you are. When I was a child at pŕimary school, we used to set the gift giving period for aproximately a week, and during that time you had to give your friend hints on who you are (cards writen with magazine letters, or with your left hand so he/she couldn't guess by your writing xD, often with an additional candy or chocolate), so she/he can guess. At the end of the week you gave your friend a bigger gift and she/he had to guess who you are.

This is the gift I made for my invisible friend. Can you guess what it is?

I'm not sure if you understood my messy explanation xD but the thing is we couldn't afford to send tips via mail, so we had to send one gift with some tips and then guess. I was a little late and sent my gift a week ago, but anyway, I hope it arrives there soon and that my friend likes it :3

So~ the other day I received my gift. I went to buy some stuff at the supermarket and when I was on my way back my mother in law told me that I had received a package from UK ♥ I couldn't wait till I got back! When I arrived home I ran to open my gift (I felt like a child haha) and I found with a card, a pair of earrings and a little charm to hang from the tree (I forgot to take a picture of the card *facepalm):

My friend told me that she saw this on a handmade fair and that it reminded her to me ♥
This pair of earrings is so-me ♥♥♥♥
Thank you Andre~ *hugs tight* you're freaking awesome ;_; 

I'm super happy with my gift~ I'm a weird woman when it comes to jewelry, but I love this cute earrings!! They have the perfect shape and color and size and everything! 

Have you ever participated in something like this? The other day I found a letter from my invisible friend  and it was awesome xD It had magazine letters all over the place saying things like "sorry I lied, I'm not a Pisces" xDDDD

Have an amazing day~!
