Oh Dawn I saw this tutorial one too, I think it is one I will have to try. I'm curious if it could come looking as good as Lindsay's. Thank you for the links this morning and have a wonderful day.

Hi sweet, and wow I just looked at the sheet music, so many beautifull, to use.
Can I ask you if one freely can use them in art-work ?

Thanks so much for the adresses, dear Dawn.

Dawn, oh yes, Sweet Barbara Jean makes the most precious little concoctions, doesn't she! And that's because her lovely spirit shines through them.

Thank you for stopping by my blog! I hope you enjoy using the antique letters! I love the blue one especially! The paper is tissue fragile and on many others that I have from this long-departed woman who lived in Australia, she has written in both directions. From what I understand, it was once a common practice when paper was scarce and expensive. It's very, very difficult to read though! And wasn't their penmanship lovely! I've lost my good penmanship due to keyboarding. My thoughts run so much faster than my fingers can write! So....it becomes messy, really messy! ;-)

Have a HAPPY day!

Wow Dawn, I can't believe how much inspiration is out there. I think I use the word "inspiration" every time I post on your site!! I just tried my hand at some coffee filter wreaths, now I will have to try this book page one! Fun! K

Charlene said...

Sweet Dawn what a treasure full of sheet music!!!! THANK you so much for sharing you find!!! I went through there & wanted one of each! Barbara Jeans shoe is adorable. I love the nest in the shoe. I had done one with a nest in it last year as a thank you gift to Diana Frey. Darn I should have sent you a photo of it since I got it from your tutorial & then tweeked it for my own. Maybe I will dig it up. I added soldered charms to it. And wings on the back. Let me go look for a photo. I think you would have loved it. Have a wonderful weekend. HUGS! Charlene

So many pretty things to look at. The sheet music site is awesome. I know some have asked but I didn't find an answer. Are they copyright free images? I would love to use them in things for me and to sell. Come for a visit.

BellaRosa said...

Dawn amor, thank you for sharing these wonderful tutorials and this amazing site for music sheets...no more guilt for using the ones I buy for projects that are sitting in a drawer looking oh so pretty :) Did you ever get to see the beautiful book wreath that Eileen of Stars Fault made? She did a beautiful one too following the link that you gave :) Take a look at hers when you get a chance...she did a beautiful job too :) Besos, Rose

woohoo I have internet again..well at least till the next storm heads in :)

Ella said...

I'm back again, received my Pottery Barn catalog today, thought of you! Wow, how beautiful...all these wonderful images...so YOU!
I, went to the Flea Market and found a few bird
items...was pleased.

It is that time of year, where we need the spring catalogs, giving us hope of her arrival.

Journal Swag said...

Wow, thank you for the link! I love the beautiful page pictured here! I might use it! My birthday is in March, and that would make something cute, I know. When I figure out what to do with it, I'll let you know. I agree! Sharing "secrets" without being worried or threatened about someone using your idea is what it's all about. Everyone has their way of making things their own anyway. Very sweet, and sweet of you to pass it on!

Warm Hugs,
Sheila

Cassandra said...
