First... a beautiful old postcard and
a couple of ideas for you!
I scanned these way back in 2008,
maybe you don't have them?

When I find something wonderful,
you know I love to share it with you!!
Well, I was picking up a few items a w-mart
a few days ago and had to stroll through the magazine section.
Now, I've gotten REALLY picky about buying magazines.
It has to be just wonderful for me to buy it.
I used to not be that way, but times have changed...
Lisa had mentioned the new Christmas magazine that
Matthew Mead created this year and that I'd love it...
and I found it!
She was right, it's really wonderful ~
I thought I'd give you a little sneak peek to see what you think.
It's a little pricey at 12.99 BUT
there's not ONE ad inside...
so to me, it's really more like a book!
Pretty, huh? The time is upon us dear friends...
Cathy of Cathy's Crazy By Design
won one of my lavender sachets a few weeks ago
and sent me a sweet thank you gift in the mail!!!
Just look at this gorgeous lace she sells in her Etsy shop!
Thank you so much Cathy, you know I will love creating
something with these wonderful pieces of lace!!!
Be sure to stop by Debra's blog Common Ground
to see her Monday Marketplace post!!
She is so sweet to promote others
and their wares!!!

My thoughts and prayers are with those
affected by this terrible storm,
I pray for the safety of everyone in it's path.
Wishing you a beautiful Monday precious friends...
hugs and love,

Thanks for letting us know about the magazine. I have about given up on buying magazines and would never have known about this one otherwise. I too am anxious about our friends all along the coast. The moon is full and it will be a restless night for many, so we pray its path will change. Love from Michigan to all.
Sweet dear Dawn,
I`m so glad you postet about Matthew Mead`s mag. yesterday on FB- as I ordered the last one they had on Amazon UK :-)
It should be here within this week ,and I can tell there are things to look forward seing. What beautiful pages you have shown.
Yes ,I am worried about all the people facing the Sandy storm just now, and the coming dayes, and I pray for their safety, too.
Your lace gift is gorgeous sweet heart-love the angel wings,
Hope your self are safe Dawn .
Love and hugs,Dorthe
LOOKS like a great magazine:) What a sweet gift of beautiful lace! Have a blessed week dear friend, HUGS!
Not one add? That may be my one Christmas magazine this year! What sweet laces... Thank you, too, for the delightful graphics.
I love Matthew Mead's style, I will put this no my "must have" list next run into the book store. Thanks for sharing the pretty inspiration here today. The laces are fantastic! I know you will make something wonderful with them. Have a sweet day!
Oh oh oh! I have a BAM giftcard burning a hole in my pocket - the MM Christmas Mag will be purrfect! Thanks for posting a few pics so that I can motivate myself right on out of the house to go get one. Just got back last night from the show - I missed you girl! Wish you could have been there. Well except for Sunday, it was way too cold for human or beastie (think Romeo)! On another thought....those laces are beautiful and I know that whatever you make is going to be nothing short of wonderful! Yes, yes prayers and positive thoughts for those in the path of the storm.
Hugs and purrs,
"Her" and Romeo
I was not aware of this magazine either... will have to look for it.
What a wonderful gift of beautiful laces... the angel wings especialy caught my eye. We all hope for the best along the coast...they've had quite the weather this past year.
That magazine looks fabulous! I will have to check it out! And the lace is so lovely! I can't wait to see what you create for Christmas this year!

You have tempted me with that magazine!
The laces you received are just beautiful. You will have fun creating with them, I know.
It's so fun to see the Christmas magazines come out. Like you, I'm getting fussier about the ones I buy. MM's publication looks like a good one.
Thanks for all the fun photos. The lace is divine. I'll have to shop for that magazine also. I have a stash!!
Have a few crafty things to make for a crafty affair soon and always nice for some new ideas.
