Nursing my hip injury has not been fun and it's kept me sidelined for several days. I'm doing great now after a much needed round of meds and I'm almost back to being good as new. Thanks to all of you who sent your kind thoughts my way! I've actually been able to sleep for the first time in weeks and I'm feeling better than evahhhhh.....
~PARIS...Ooo La La ROMANTIC~
I'm going to take Wednesday and Thursday off this week to catch up on some special orders and to finish the production part of a line of French Bottle Perfume Cards, Notes, Hang Tags, Tea Bag Covers and Fabric Panels I've been working on since last Fall.
~WITH LOVE~
Today I'm giving you a sneak-peek at three original romantic designs newly fashioned at A Gathering Place. If I didn't love painting and sewing sooo much I do think I would have loved becoming a full-time graphic-arts-girl. Re-purposing vintage images and ephemera is my third favorite thing to do in the whole wide world! I'm becoming a total computer geek and I'm quite sure this makes my sonshine, Brandon Kent, very, very proud!
Hope your day is lovely! I'll be back on Friday to show you yet another project that's been taking up my time!
Love to you...
The tags and cards are gorgeous, Rebecca!

What a great example to all of us! God bless!
Glad to hear you're feeling better Rebecca!

NICE article on the pillows! Have fun working in your Creative Space this week! Blessings... :)

ReplyDeleteI am so glad that you have healed and that you are back up to snuff!
ReplyDeleteDid I tell you that I love your blog and your art! You are so talented. And what a small world! I graduated from Harrison in '81! All of my siblings did(8 of us) My sister Cathy graduated in '76.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you are healing, and got a good night's sleep...or do you sleep??? LOL I don't think you ever STOP long enough to heal so do try to take it easy for a bit

Dear Sweet Rebecca,
ReplyDeleteSOOOO glad your are feeling better.
I just love the new Cards, etc., that you designed. I have been tinkering with my Print Shop doing some tags and cards to. Nothing as complicated as your deigns though. Just croping and pasting. LOL
My son gave me the Paint Shop program for Christmas, but I can't make heads or tales of how to use it, especially how to do the transparent backgrounds and overlays. Way to complecated for me !!! Maybe one of these days I will run across a class on how to use the program. I have watched U tube tutorials, but they use so much terminoligy that I am not familiar with. Fiddly Dee Tomorrow is another day. ;0)
Thank you for all your inspiration.
Hugs, Carol
Gorgeous designs! Hope you are all better soon, rest my friend! Have a blessed day, HUGS!
ReplyDeleteIt's so good to hear that you're feeling better and on the mend.
ReplyDeleteThe tags and cards are so beautiful! All your art work is beautiful!!!
Take care.... hugs,
Hi Rebecca!
ReplyDeleteOh the hips and back areas can be so painful and I am so very glad you are mending!
Your cards and tags are always so exquisite, Rebecca!

Hi Rebecca
ReplyDeleteI haven't been visiting my blog friends much lately and I'm sorry to hear of your hip injury. I'm sure you've been busy the whole time you've been laid up but do take the rest needed to be better again.

I love all the soft pastel colors you use!
ReplyDeleteRebecca-

ReplyDeleteLove these! So darling!
Glad you are feeling better. Glad you and Kylah could come for a swim. We need to do it more often.
Love you-- Mom
Hi Sweetie~ ~Thinking about you in all this heat. Keep cool and safe. We will hit 100 today and it's not very pleasant.
ReplyDeleteI love your sweet little girls on the bottles. Many years ago I had a wall in my livingroom of antique prints of little girls in fashionable dresses and hats of the day. I still have a few around but some got lost along the way. I should round them up for a blog post soon.

So sorry you hurt your hip. Glad it is on the mend. Love to see your new stuff. You do have talent. Everything is always so pretty. Get well soon.
