Sunday Morning

Isn't this sweet??? It is from a Christams card I received a few years ago. I save almost all of my Christmas cards from year to year. Throughout the Christmas season I will be posting my faves and also my favorite vintage Christmas postcards that I have collected over the years. Please feel free to use any images you like in your art work.

I found another really great blog that I am adding to my links on the side. The name of it is Small Treasures. I don't know very much about the very talented woman who runs it except that she lives in Germany. Talk about beautiful work!! What a treat for the senses!

I found another line of Christmas paper I could not resist. Dasher by Basic Grey. I am making (translate "starting") another Christmas project with this paper. It is so cool because it is mostly blue...which is my favorite color! Oh great, I just went to the site to put in the link to Dasher and I see that the store where I got it did not have all the papers. Now I see even more cool papers in this line!!! I don't think my love of patterned papers will ever end!

And lastly, for one more ooh and ahh moment.....I purchased a piece of art from Linda Harre's Etsy shop!! Can't wait for it to arrive, but in the meantime, here is a sneak preview! Isn't it just wonderful! She has more items in her shop that are equally as cool! (in case you want your very own artwork by Linda! and who wouldn't??? Her work is stupendous!)

Happy Sunday everyone!

Oh Laura.....by the by....I purchased the ledger that you wrote us about and got one for my sis for her birthday. We both were stunned by the magnificent job they did in recreating an old ledger! I love it and will be happy to carry it through the next year. Thanks for the heads up!!!!!
