Clip Art Freebies From Leaping Frog Designs Victorian Scrap Butterfly And Vintage Valetines

A few weeks ago I came across my scrap book

from grade school.

Tucked inside pages full of drawings

and class work

and Valentines

Boy they sure brought back a lot of

memories.

I will add more as the year

goes on

The butterfly at the top

came to me as half a butterfly

I scanned it and then Jill fixed it for me.

It is very cool

Enjoy!!!

one of my old books

A maple leaf fell out that

I had pressed many years ago

Ding! I think I will scan it

It looks really cool in negative

Enjoy!

Why Are My Blog Visit Numbers Going Backwards?

That has been my big

question this week

I know...Silly

But you know on your stats

it shows your total page views and

it is kinda fun watching where

my visitors are from

and how many stop by.

But I swear...mine started going

backwards a few months ago.

It gets up to a certain number

and POOF...A few thousand

vanish.

Has this happened to anyone else?

Am I loosing my mind?

(Do not answer that)

The picture above is one my hubby

made for our family campground.

And I think it fits the situation

pretty well.

Let me know if any of you have

this happen too...and if you know

why it does it.

Cause it is starting to bug me. Lol

Take care!

Wonderful Architecture and Ornament

This book has quite a bit of water damage

and the pages are wavy.

As you can tell some of them did not scan well

If anyone has any advice on how I can flatten them

back out I would sooooo appreciate it.

Not to worry about preserving

the book.  It has fallen apart.

But the plates are fantastic

and many are in color.

I will continue to scan them

and work on cleaning them up

so that I can share them with you all.

Have a great Friday!!!!

For My Mother

This picture I found in a 1917 book

reminds me of my own mother reading to me

when I was young.

Yesterday my mom had a little scare

she ended up in the hospital

with a silent heart attack scare

Thankfully...That was not what it was

It was respiratory in nature

but at 78

It gave us  a little bit of a shake up.

All is well today

She has medicine to help her breath and

an inhaler and she was able

to come back home.

 I am off to see how she is doing

today...

Hugs to you all!!



Free Photo And Clip Art Friday Flowers And Botanicals

Good Golly is it Friday

already?!

This week has gone by so ultra fast

I had plans with Jill

but have yet to make it over

to her house to do them

(sorry Jillian)

I have been a little

frustrated with blogger

comments the last week also.

My own issues with responding back

to all of you who leave me comments

and in return...I have not been

able to leave comments on others blogs

I thought that was fixed yesterday with

un-checking the Leave me signed in thingy

but again this morning I am

having trouble.

So with all that in mind...Tiffany. 
It would not let
me leave a comment
on your blog this morning.
 I am so
