Fall is near . . . but Summer is STILL here! : )
Linen and fabric photo Album (about 9"X6")
There's talk of it "finally cooling down", and "easing in" to the times of holiday seasons.
Well - -not quite yet for me. : ) Not. Quite. Yet!
I believed I mentioned earlier that our Colorado Winter's are very looong~
I still want to enjoy the warm Summer days; it is my favorite time of year. I never like to let it go~
We ARE experiencing chilly (I call it "sweatshirt") mornings! But days are often in the 80's.
I'll take it please. As long as I can. But the cooler weather IS on it's way and soon I'm afraid.
Oh, I know I will "yield" to the Autumn, to the holiday seasons, and the cold air that finally drives me inside. . . . but for now - I will gladly BASK in the sunshine; and soak in all I can!
This is a linen photo album I made in July of last year, and gave to very dear friend~
I was inspired by some of the creations of Lilla @ (click here>) http://justlilla.blogspot.com and
Susie Q @ ( > ) http://suziqusthreadworks.blogspot.com/ I love to be inspired by their works~
This album contains vintage lace, buttons, hankies, doilies, netting, tulle; cheesecloth etc.; and there is also some new fabrics & misc. mixed in~ I did some rubber stamping too~ It ties closed w/the wide silk ribbon.
The 'photo's' inside are only 'suggestions'/place holders printed on paper. Some are images for Maja Design (>) http://majadesign.nu/ and some are actual family pics. (can you find me?)
I am smiling, almost laughing right now! Because as of today, I do not have any followers except . . . me! : ) So I'm just talking to myself! as I'm saying all this stuff - : J But that may not always be the case, so, Hmmm! . . . I can 'express my self to no one' in hopes that someday someone will hear me! ; ) HA! all in fun~
Blessings to you for a beautiful week-end~

Hi Karen, Yes, I know that feeling, but keep it up and you'll get visitors before long. That's what I found, too, in the beginning. But even if you have one follower you have an audience to speak to. Your lace book is simply divine. I love your old images. All the best
