Mini break

I am taking a little blog break - I've spent the past few days at the hospital, my daughter had an operation after a burst appendix. She is recovering and doing good. I got a wonderful surprise today when checking my mail - Karen from the Graphics Fairy featured my Young Queen Victoria collage on Brag Monday! I would not be able to do what I do without Karen's amazing blog with free graphics!

Friday freebie - 4711 stamp

One of my most treasured belongings is a small bottle of 4711 Eau de Cologne that belonged to my mother. It has a special place on my dresser and I love looking at the beautiful label, but most of all the scent is wonderful. I scanned the label and made this stamp from it, click here for your free stamp.

Eyespresso

Let me see, where did the inspiration for this design come from . . . maybe it is the espressos, macchiatos, cappuccinos and lattes that appear on my desk while I am working. In my eyes (excuse the pun) - my husband is a barista of note and he really spoils me with his creations. I had so much fun with this Three Muse's challenge - eyes. Cafedomancy is the art of reading the future in coffee grounds, which goes back to the earliest days of coffee drinking.
