Shoregirl's Creations Printable Recipe Cards

After visiting Shoregirl's Creations, I was in awe of her creativity and ability to design!  She has some of the most beautiful creations I have seen and had left the kindest, nicest comment on my blog, so I felt I could ask her if she possibly could design some vintage recipe cards for me!  They were posted to her blog today and are absolutely perfect for what I need!!
I have downloaded every single card, plan to personalize them for my daughters, daughters in law and grand daughters.  I will put some of our family favorites on several of them, then add some blank cards so they can add their own favorite dishes to the set.  I will tie them with a ribbon and put their names on handmade tag, tied to the ribbon.
I know the girls will love them!  They are very sentimental and will love having their mom and/or grandma's handwritten recipes in the years to come.
Bless her sweet little heart, she designed 6 of them and I plan to use every one many times over!  A simple 'thank you' seems so inadequate, so I wanted to share with you what she had done for me and they are there for you as well.  Please go look at them and I know you will want them for yourself or to give to others.
I am posting  a couple of the cards so you can see how beautiful they are.

Vintage Ladies Just For You

Pretty Lady With Flowered Hat
Lady in Teal Dress

These lovely ladies are yours to download and do with as you please.  I think they are quite gorgeous!  I especially like the hat!!!  In those days most ladies wore, or were depicted as wearing, large hats, some of them pretty, some of them downright outlandish!!  Hope you en joy and find something to use them on.
Just gotta' say it ... be sweet!

Beautiful Mother's Day Graphics




I love these graphics ... a lady's hand holding a single rose, one red and one pink, and the hand with the quill is just gorgeous!  They could be used so many ways in crafting a great gift for mom or any special lady.  Get your creative caps on and let's think of how we can use these pretty pictures!!  I think they would be absolutely lovely decorating a candy wrapper , box or card.  My favorite is the one with the pink rose and frilly sleeve.  They would be great to brighten up a plain frame which could hold a special Mother's Day poem, covered with a glossy sealer and placed on a gold plate holder or even to decorate a plain plate ... the verse, graphic and put into a plate hanger for just that perfect place on a bare wall.  
I am sure whether you just like to collect them, look at them or use them in crafting, these will be among your favorites as they are mine.  More for tomorrow, Loveys!! 
Be sweet now!!!

Sweet Angel Images And a Picture Box Craft


I love angels and believe they are all around us.  Today's images are both of two angels.  I am going to enlarge the second image, cut out the angels and adhere to a  photo box that I have painted black.  I don't know yet what it will look like, but I am hoping it will be as pretty as I envision it to be.  I plan to adhere angel images to almost cover the lid, then smear some white paint around the edges of the glued on images, maybe distress with a little ink and finish with several coats of a brush on sealer.  I will paint the inside a soft lavender and also seal it for strength.  I am wondering if I should add some keys, gemstones, or anything to add texture and interest to the lid!  I welcome any ideas and comments you may have as I struggle sometimes to come up with something new and different!!
Be sweet!!!

Easter Blessings



This is the sweetest image of 3 little Easter angels under an arch of what appears to be dogwood.  I thought it fitting that our first image should include angels and celebrate Easter at the same time.  I hope you  have the perfect project for this cute angel graphic. 
Click on the image to open it to full size in another window, then right click and "save as" to save it to your computer.  You may want to make a new folder in My Pictures to save the images in. 
Here's hoping to a long lasting friendship with lots of new pics for all your crafting projects and needs.
Be sweet!!!!
