The fox and the hound

A collage of some of my favourite things, I find it difficult to express in words my love for owls - aren't they just the most wonderful creatures. Lately I am fascinated with foxes, and don't get me started on my forever love for roses and shades of green and pink and vintage labels, postcards, birdcages . . . you get the picture :)

Dahlia hats

A little birdie thought these ladies needed some sprucing up, so now they have lovely floral hats with a bit of colour and pizzazz.

Fashion circle

Two ladies from a vintage dress pattern - my entry for the circle challenge at Three Muses today.

Purple in Paris

Oh how I love purple, oh how I love Paris, oh how I love vintage . . . . . my entry for Three Muses Vintage Collage/Memories challenge.

Little pink number

In fashion, black and white combos are so chic, but I have to say that I really do like a simple dress in a striking colour, don't you love these two stylish ladies? - my entry for the black and white challenge at Take a Word.

Seaside

It is winter in my neck of the woods - no going to the beach anytime soon. . . . don't you just love the bathing suits :-) My entry for Theme Thursday's border challenge and Take a Word's beach challenge

Victorian elegance

Three elegant Victorian ladies as my entry for Three Muses Victorian elegance challenge. I have to say - I don't know how you sit down wearing one of these, but they sure are beautiful, love the fabric!!!

Orange

"There is no blue without yellow and without orange." ~ Vincent Van Gogh. My entry for Theme Thursday's orange challenge.

Black and white

This was fun, turning a colour picture into black and white, and of course I just had to add a pop of green!

Hats and Bonnets

During the 1820's wide-brimmed hats and hat-like bonnets with masses of feathers and ribbon trims were worn by fashionable ladies - my entry for the hats challenge over at Theme Thursday.

Sewing

All you need is some fabric, a pattern, sewing machine and some good quality thread  . . . . what are you waiting for - start sewing!!! ;-) I am talking to myself - so many things I would like to sew, but between my sewing machine bailing out on me and finding time between making collages and what not - I just never get to it.  The spool advertisement and the sewing machine are both from Graphics Fairy - linking to Brag Monday.

Le Rouge et le Noir

My entry for the Theme Thursday red and black challenge, I really enjoyed making this - don't you just love both dresses?
