Angels All Around!

Today I'm sharing the latest Angel cards I have created.









 This set of Peace Angels have already left my my Etsy shop
but this second set of two Peace Art Angels
 with French accents,
vintage laces, chiffon type fabric, French gift paper
and washi tape
is still available there.









There is certainly an air of peacefulness around me
when I create these and so uplifting for the soul!
♥♥♥ 
 These images below are of a little journal I have
also just completed for a young teenager's birthday
so here are a couple of glimpses
until I get to show it in it's
entirity.






 Wishing you all a smooth and happy start to your week!

Love and hugs, Suzy xox

A Card for that Special Person?

Are you looking for that 
special card for that
special person  or loved friend
 or member of your family?

I have just added two sets of Angel art cards/Christmas cards
to my my Etsy shop
Sorry dear readers but these have now sold but keep looking
as there will be more!  








as well as this set below.











 




It's almost the weekend here where I live on the far south coast
of Australia and I hope that the weekend brings you a time
of rest and recovery if your week has been busy!
With the setting of the sun this evening I took this photo of
Pierre de Ronsard blooming in the Springtime light.

 
Enjoy and thanks for visiting and I appreciate the
time you take when you leave a comment.
It is so kind and thoughtful!
Take care of one another!

Savouring some stunning lace and New Cards

Quite recently a special friend, 
 Liz (from Lululizinlalaland)
and I participated in a wonderful swap.
I exchanged some of my lush velvets, satins, silks
and rare fabrics
for some of Liz's prized collection of antique French Lace.
but before showing these I have posted two of my
latest Madonna cards which now appear in
my Etsy
 








 It's no secret how j'adore beautiful lace especially
antique lace and French lace - well that's the icing on the cake!
So brace yourself for a viewing of some exquisite and rare
pieces that are becoming harder to find these days.

 
 Many of these pieces have been in Liz's collection for many years
and being a fabric hoarder I know how precious these pieces
really are!

 The parcel arrived, of course, with many little extra loves
like these gorgeous sari ribbons,




a card created by Liz herself along with these gorgeous pieces.
I shall let the photos "do the talking" as they say because
I can't find the words to describe their exquisiteness!





 

















The parcel also included a number of small doilies


 as Liz knows just how many of these I use in my creations!

 Look at this butterfly - Oh the details!








There were also a number of these narrow laces that I had
never seen before either. Just so beautiful! 






 
These laces are very precious and Liz knows just how much
I appreciate them all and I know it will be almost
impossible for me to cut into any of them,
however,
I am planning a new book of Treasured Pieces of Yesteryear
and that is where I think some of these will live as it
will be a keepsake for many years to come.
 
 ♥♥♥
 
 This collage is one I sent to Liz along with the fabrics so this also
gives you an idea of how much lace I really manage to use.
 











 



  Collages like these sometimes appear in my Etsy shop
so don't forget to keep looking or contact me if
you are interested in purchasing one
of your own.
 
♥♥♥
 I'd like to give a little shout out about two Giveaways
coming up and they are:

Marie Lost Bird Studio - the drawing will be 5th Nov.
and the second one is:

Apple and Apricot - the winner will be chosen on 8th Nov.
 So go and visit these two beautiful blogs!

♥♥♥ 

Thank you always for coming to look and for your wonderful
support!
 
Love and hugs, Suzy xox
