I am joining Wen for Simply Neutrals Tuesday. Please visit her blog and see Wen’s and see many other artists beautiful posts as well: appleapricot.blogspot.com
I was able to have some creative time this past weekend. It is a difficult thing to find as of late, so I am grateful when and if it does happen. These little chipboard tags were washed with white paint, and layers of paper collage and laces were applied on top.
I also had fun with Miss Adelaide. This antique dress yoke I found among my auction lots from October.
The package was marked “lace trim” when indeed it was a fully intact top to a woman’s dress from days gone by.
It really is beautiful.
Miss Adelaide also was able to “borrow” a felt hat that did not sell in my booth. I think she looks smashing in it. Don’t you?
Nancy your neutral shipboard tags are so so sweet and the gorgeous images are so perfect for them. I am glad that you have been able to find a little time to get back to your creativity again!. The crocheted lace collar is simply beautiful and quite a special find adorning your Miss Adelaide! WOW those roses on the felt hat are stunning too!
Hugs dear from downunder,

Hello sweet friend, I’m so happy to hear you could do some creating again! Your tags are so gorgeous and sweet. And the vintage laces you found, wow, beautiful! Miss A looks smashing indeed with her rose adorned hat, I think she doesn’t mind the hat didn’t sell ;)
Take care dear, big hugs and love xx
