Here is my Good Sport

HERE IS what my good sport really looks like when she is not coloring her hair and looking like "Alfalfa" as so many of you commented-Ha!
Barbara is our youngest daughter.  She has always been a lot of fun and shares our sense of humor completely!  She was such a good sport about letting me post her in her pink tee with her hair pulled up while coloring it.  Thanks for all your fun comments on the Pink Saturday Post and as requested, you now can meet her as she really is!

I just love all vintage cards but especially Valentine Greetings!  I love the Era of Romance that existed when these precious postcards were created.  What fun!  Valentine week is so much fun with all the commercials, cards and sentiments all around us.  I have created my own Valentine to feature on Pink Saturday created by Beverly at HOW SWEET THE SOUND.  I cannot wait to see what everyone has done for the special day, especially my beautiful niece, Patricia at From the Basement Stairs.  Patricia loves everything Victorian, everything Marie (Antoinette) and creates the most beautiful trading cards and tags that I have ever seen.  She also is a skilled crochet artist.  I marvel and gasp at some of her beautiful crocheted pieces that are elegant and perfect. Her vignettes of house decor are so pleasing to the eye as she has a real flair for decorating.  I also love the view from her windows where she gives us a peek at her precious garden in summer and snow covered field in winter light.  Please visit Patricia by clicking on the link and then visiting her other blogs with links in her sidebar.  You will not be disappointed!

Original Christmas Artwork

I have been making little gift cards and greeting cards with my own artwork.  The Santa is one I have been drawing ever since I was in H.S.  The others I just make up as I go along and love creating the bright Christmas colored cards.  I draw them first in pencil, outline in fine marker and this group I colored with pencils and gel pens.  I hope this inspires you to make some of your own gift tags and cards!
