Free Friday Images Frame And Printers Ornament Cherub And Cyclamen Flower Card



It has been crazy here this week
Seems like I keep running around in circles
like a crazy chicken.
Had some time yesterday to scan
this fantastic book I had lost on my bookshelf
It is full of delightful Victorian images.

(yes I am mucking out the studio again)
Oooo
Out with the old as they say.
I could not believe that I had collected and
stashed about 8 silver chests to refurbish
My sister in law is coming by today
to take those off my hands
Tee hee..now they will be her
problem to store or refurbish.
Also..a huge rubber maid tub full
of vintage crochet and vintage
embroidery.  Those are going into my
Etsy store - all in one big destash lot.
Except for some neat star shaped ones
in colors that I think would make fantastic
purses....

Help!! I Need A Translator Do You Read German?

Today while my son
was at an appointment
I had a chance to do a
little scrounging
in our local St. Vinnie's

I found this amazing book
From far away all I could see was
a book laying on it's side
with the cover off the spine.
I picked it up
and flicked thru it.
Put it down.
It was kind of expensive
and I just did not want to spend
that much.
But....as we all know
That never works
Two steps - turned
right around and picked it up.
Now I am so glad I did.



It is German-I think it has something
to do with cooking
There are color double page
plates of cuts of meat.
Or it may be a butchers guide.
I don't know.
Do any of you speak or read
German?
Can anyone tell me what it says?
Any Help would be appreciated!!
Thank you so much!




Time To Show Off My Valentine Tin From Karla

Well...It is time to show off!
Last month Wendy at Bliss Angels was so
sweet and kind and hosted another tin swap.
The theme of course is
!! Valentines !!
My swap partner this time
was Karla Jackson
She sent me a sweet tin
full of goodies
and a second mini tin too!

I have to tell you...The chocolates
did not last long....
It was one of those days.
Ooooo lovely tins and Chocolate!!
Can life get much better.
Yep...
Cause She also sent me some
fun clip art

And a beautiful hand made card
The tiny book gave me
an idea..and this year I am going
to write my husband a love letter
I may even use Karla's card.
Thank you Karla..This was a really fun
swap!!

Now..
I would like to share with you
what I sent Karla.
I tried something new this time
Beeswax
Oh my gosh I love it!!

So there they are...
I really enjoyed it once again
The challenge of getting a project done
on time...stretching to learn something
new..making new friends.
It was great.
