Clip Art Freebies Decorated Floats Antique Images And Maid Of The Mist Card

Last weekend Jill and I went to our local Piccadilly Flea Market.  I have

not been in a long long time.

It was so much fun going with Jill...You see, it is a little

known secret, but until just recently

Jill would never go junkin with me.You would think

after being best friends for over 30 years

she would of broken down

and come garage sailing with me, or

an estate sale or two.  Even when she lived in Canada

(they have fantastic Antique stores in B.C.)

Nope...I think we went to one antique store in all

the years I went up to visit before she and her

family moved back home to Eugene.

But now

 Oh my...Now she

knows and is soooo hooked.

Anyway...These 3 vintage pictures are part my finds.

I had to laugh.  In my wallet was $6

And I spent every penny.  These great pictures and

cards all came in one packet that only cost

a buck!  I love flea markets

I hope you enjoy them...The Maid Of The Mist card is very beautiful, and

the decorated automobiles for a parade are wonderful.

Take a close look at the people in the crowd.

A Few Words About My Blog Designer

Last week I had a really good question from Charlene http://myheartsease.blogspot.com/      .  She asked me how I got my Good Friends button so large.  Well gals.  I have a confession.  My best friend Jill (aka Polly)   http://feathersandflight.blogspot.com/2010/11/many-blessings.html#comments  is my blog designer.  She got me started blogging just a couple of months ago...and has been patiently leading me along in designing my blog and re-designing my etsy storefront.  I tell you...Jill is a remarkable woman.  She is becoming the most amazing digital artist....Please stop by her blog and see her beautiful work.  She also has the patience of a saint...I vaguely tell her something I want...or am thinking about and she works her magic. 

  I think Jill and I are sooo fortunate to be living in the same city right now.   We have lived apart in different countries for a while...Then went years with out talking (babies, husbands, careers, ego)..(Let me tell you not talking to your best friend for years is no fun thing)  .... Right now we are trying to have a "design" day once a week...the last few have been so hectic that we haven't made it..(We have had fun shopping and junking, and watching football).  I am hoping nothing gets in the way for us this week...lol.
