Having Fun Learning Something New

Hi Dear Friends, 

Hope you all had a beautiful Christmas!  We had such a wonderful Christmas Day with my husband's family.  There were 20 of us altogether so the day was filled with lots of fun and laughter!  We have 2 little great-nieces and 2 great-nephews so it was such fun watching them opening their presents and spending special time with them.

We have so many Blessings in our lives, family & dear friends being the most precious of all!

I have been playing in PSE again and have been practicing making digital collages.  I just love doing this, it really is quite addicting!  I used digital elements from Studio Girls Scrapbook Graphics, the lovely Roses are from Paper Whimsy and the photo of the little girl is from the images on my blog.  I've always wanted to try this and I'm having so much fun learning something new!

Have a Very Happy & Beautiful day dear friends and thank you so very much for stopping by, it means so much to me!

Love & Hugs,

Thinking of You Dear Friends

My Dear Friends, I want to wish you all a beautiful Christmas filled with Much Love & Joy and a Healthy and Happy New Year!

I can't thank you all enough for your lovely comments and emails you have sent to me this past year...they made me so very happy and meant so much, more than you will ever know.  I feel so very blessed to have been able to get to know some of you better and I want you to know that I will always treasure your dear friendships. 

I would like to share some images with you tonight of a beautiful young woman in 4 different poses.  I hope you will enjoy them! 

Having some fun with one of the images and some digital elements I purchased from Scapbook Graphics.

Merry Christmas!

With Love & Hugs,

I love to share with you Sweet Friends...

And I have a few things for you today, some new free images and an ATC I created!
I had so much fun creating this ATC last week for my swap partner Leslie of Junk Girl Studio for the Blissful ATC Swap.  
I used a darling little fairy girl and sentiment "Little Petal of My Heart" from Paper Whimsy.  I added silk ribbon trim to the little fairy's hair and also to the stack of envelopes and Stickles to her wings, around the edge of the ATC and the butterflies from Magic Moonlght Free Images.  
I really enjoyed making this for Leslie and I hope she will like it!

This is a picture of the beautiful silk ribbon trim I used.  I found this trim on ebay a while ago and the lovely satin and velvet ribbon was included...I just love it! 

I hope you will enjoy the images I have for you.  Two French postcards of the sweetest little baby and some pages from an antique poetry book that I have in my collection of children's books.  The copyright date is 1895 and there is an inscription to Catharine Morris on Christmas Day, 1897.

Before I go I wanted to show you my new Blog button!

Karen of  Valentine Design designed this for me, isn't it beautiful?  I am just so thrilled with it!

Thank you, thank you so very much Karen!

Have a Lovely & Happy Day Sweet Friends!

Thank you so much for stopping by, I always love to hear from you and I appreciate your comments so much...they truly brighten my day!

With Love and Many Blessings,
