Ooooh La La! The Ladies have arrived!

My DSIS Liz went with a friend to Brimfield, MA yesterday to attend the gala antique show. She asked me if I "wanted" anything. I told her only if she were to see a nice brooch,(meaning singular) ... Well, she came home with a loot for me! Each one is so special! They will make their way to one of my Cinderella Dream slipper shoes soon.

I completed a few and here they are:
"Butterfly Dreams"

"Rosebud"


"The Lady of Seville"


I am very excited to present my latest lovies. The first two I put on for Romantic Roses on Pink Friday. For "The Lady of Seville" I used chantilly lace and an exquisite red rose brooch from MeadowStreet (http://www.meadowstreet.com/). I will posting these on my website under "If The Shoe Fits~Altered Art for Cinderella Dreams".

I've Been Tagged!! (No Show, All Tell)


I've been tagged by Inka of Inklings Designs and now I have to come up with 7 things you don't know about moi ....Let's see what I can tell you without ruining my good reputation:


(1) I have been to Graceland, home of Elvis, in Memphis, TN! I found it to be very touching and was go glad I went.

(2) I have personally met Luciano Pavarotti two times in his dressing room at the MET. I have a picture of him and I just as his then girlfriend came up to us to give him a pill (my one moment of fame, drats, but I show it with pride!)


(3) I have met Paula Deen and her new hubby Michael. Have a picture of Paula and I too. We both look like we love butter! Ya'll~!


(4) I met Randy Travis last year in a boutique in Santa Fe, New Mexico. He was shopping with his honey and I had to walk right past him to get out and I extended my hand to him, saying "Hi, how do you do?" and he shook my hand with a big smile, "Fine, and you?"....I still have not washed my hand. My brother asked, "what no autograph?" and I replied, "he didn't ask me for one"!!LOL. I didn't want to be 'one of those' pesty fans...

(5) I have been up in a hot air balloon. It was 1988. Now I am afraid I am the hot air balloon! It was just as magnificent as I imagined it would be and very spiritual.


(6) I was a ballerina when I was 4 and the apple of my instructor's eye. I had to stop because my cousin no longer wanted to do ballet and my Mother did not drive... (shed a tear here)... so we did not have transportation. To this day I love anything to do with ballet and classical music.

(7) I love to do the dishes! As a child my goal was to be 'big enough' to reach the kitchen sink. Once I got there, I was happy as a little lark. Still am!


Okay, now I get to select someone to tag....let's see...


(1) Francie,of A Scented Cottage;

(2) Lilli (Debra) of Lilli Blue's Vintage Rescues;

(3) Connie of Living Beautifully;

(4) Georgia of Grandma G's Cottage;

(5) Theresa of Cottage Violets;
