My Blissfull ATC Swap for February...Our Theme was "LOVE" .......

Dear Friends,
                                                                        

First let me thank All
of you who had sent get
well wishes for my Mom.
She is not coughing near
as much today so thats
a very good sign!!
I am feeling better too
so thank you again!

This is the ATC that
I made for my swap buddy
for February.

I thought I would iron
the little girl transfer
onto some silk fabric,
which worked out well.
I then made a little quilt
sandwich with some
batting and thin cotton
for the backing.
I  then sewed all the way
around and also added
some ruched pink
ribbon around the border.
I then attached the
little puffy picture bundle
to a pink satin background.
I added a couple of
embellishments too.












I also made a little ATC
Fabric book holder.
I has inside a couple of
pockets for little love
notes and the other side
to hold the ATC!!                                                     



I think it's all so cute!
Nicole my partner likes it as well.
I will share Nicole's ATC
when I receive it.

I hope you all are keeping
warm, safe and healthy!!

All of You are
Blessings!!

Love,

    Wonderful gifts, reminds me of the fabric book you made for me although I admit to liking my own better, since I'm not exactly a pink sort of gal. Good work Susan!

    Oh wow!!! Where did you come from? Thank you for reading my very loooooooong post. Hahahah! I had to fess up. My sisters and brothers still do not know. I told them to read the truth. Hah! You are so sweet to patiently read my story and I appreciate your comment. I would love to read your stories about dragonflies.

    I hope your mother is getting better and what a cake your neighbor gave her for her birthday. I agree, cake is a basic food group. It belongs to the class of Happiness!

    Love you ATCs, so dainty.

    Nice meeting you!

Hello Dear Friends.... So I'm here again!...I may just start blogging once more!! I wanted to share with you a simple little collage I made this week. I used a vintage book cover as my base. I love the dark green base for the collage. The little girl is from Paper Whimsy. Since I wanted to make something to herald in springtime...I decided to use some vintage ephemera that I have collected over the years. I used a vintage book page from some nature pages my friend Tina had sent to me from Denmark. The feather I have the little girl holding is from a friend in British Columbia, from one of her birds, who donates his feathers!! LOL......I also used a wee little nest I was gifted in a swap a couple of years ago. The little metal hanger I though was a cute way to hang the collage...On the little label it says "Magical"! Springtime to me is a magical time of year, as nature once again brings forth beautiful flowers, and lush landscapes so pleasing to our soul. A
