You might remember a few posts back when I shared a lovely old floral tin I found! Well, my friend Kat from Low Tide High Style was interested in buying it to use in a photoshoot. Kat is a wonderful photographer and I asked if she would like to trade instead! She is so generous and sent me a beautiful group of photos from her Wildlife and Beach Galleries! I framed them up to display at our family lakehouse... won't they be perfect?
Sandpipers...
shells...
and a seagull...
and this lovely surprise... a photo from her trip to Europe...Fountain's Abbey in England! I'm looking forward to framing this one up, too!
Also this week, I received a wonderful giveaway win from creative Ann of Moonbeams & Fireflies ! I won one of her charming handmade For Giggles and Grins Journals!
Isn't it lovely?
It is full of vintage and found papers...
little hidden surprises...
You know how I love vintage ephemera...
and anything with vintage bingo has my name on it!
Ann has such a fun blog... full of her repurposed projects and vintage collections! I hope you'll stop by and say hi! Thank you so much, Ann...I know I will have so much fun playing with this!
And I want to say a BIG thank you to all of you for your sweet and supportive comments about my entryway project...it inspires me to finish some of the other projects around here!
Until next time...
