Vintage Marketplace!!

Hello Friends!

Last week was the fabulous Vintage Marketplace
in Rainbow, CA!
It was a beautiful, sunny day
and the vendors so charmingly displayed their wares.

They say a picture is worth a thousand words,
and since my old nemesis, tendinitis, is acting up,
roll camera! 

Love this huge paper flower:

Big bundles of vintage lace and doilies: 

Blue hydrangeas!!

Love this!

One of my fave vendors, Lisa Loria:

Next time I will show you the lovelies I took home with me!

And, since roses are the flower of the month

some rosy freebies for you:

Lucky, Lucky Girl!!

Hello Friends!
Yes, I AM a lucky girl, I won this beautiful mini-bag full of fabulous goodies

in a giveaway hosted by Debi of Life in My Studio!

The bag itself is lovely,

and there are so many beautiful things with which to create.
Thank you, Debi, I love it!!

I also received these lovely bags from my partners Denise, Marti and Thespa

in a French Mini-Market Bag Swap
hosted by the Marie Antoinette group.

We embellished little 3" x 5" muslin bags,
and tucked little goodies inside.

Aren't they gorgeous?
And they are so much fun to make!

But wait...the title of this post is Lucky, lucky girl...
Yes.
I won another giveaway!!

A big THANK YOU, Rhonda of A Little Bit French
for these wonderful goodies!

I have long drooled over the lovelies in Rhonda's shop.
She sewed this little lace pouch and tucked the lovelies inside.
Thank you Rhonda!  It's beautiful! 

Here's some pretty images of bouquet-bearing cuties for you:

and everyone!

I am in a very fun swap at Paper Whimsy,

Soooo, here is a little peekie:







I feel I must explain the soft focus on this photo:



I half-wittedly accidentally left my camera outside in the rain.
Well it wasn't actually raining when I left it outside.
In my defense, I live in San Diego, and we don't have much experience with rain here.
Anyway, that's my story and I'm sticking to it!!




Thanks so much for stopping by!

Oh! I can't let you leave without a freebie:

or two:

White Wednesday and a Fairy Freebie

I am sharing some photos
from a trip to one of my fave places, Urban Barn.
This place is a must visit if you're in San Diego County.

I LOVE seashell art:


And I love the huge white paper roses on the wall:



I love all the hues and textures in this photo:



Love the seashell crown!
And...the way to make something cute--stick a baby doll head on it! :)



I wanted to leave you with another fairy image...


Isn't she sweet? Click, right click and save!

Pink Saturday at Vintage Marketplace!

Last weekend Marti and I went to the fabulous
Vintage Marketplace in Rainbow, CA just north of San Diego.
It was a beautiful day to begin with,
and there was more beauty to be found at the market.
I'm going to reveal my pictures in themes, bit by bit,
because there are some gorgeous pics
that will make for some lovely future Pink Saturday posts!

This week will be my romantic theme:







A dreamy, sun dappled sofa to just fall into:


I love the vignettes that everyone stages,
it just adds so much to the romantic ambience.

It was a wonderful day,
and I will have more pics to share with you.

Thanks for visiting and for your comments,
have a wonderful weekend!
