Mixed Media Monday - Vintage labels...and some of my new cards!!!

french labels mmm

This week over at MMM the theme is Vintage labels...and since all of my work is not vintage I took some components from the Graphics Fairy and Cathy Holden and worked them with my Eiffel tower and bee illustration....

I also created these fun paper cards....they are watercoloured and glittered....and in my Main Etsy Shop

Happy Monday!!!

Too much prettiness to look at!!! Love the emblem in the center and all the vintage stamps. Your cards are AMAZING! Do you do each one by hand? Oh, maybe my pool toy was trying to run away to Canada... **kisses** Deb

I meant to get here YESTERDAY....LOL! Such is my life.
I love them all, but for whatever reason, that bee on the Eiffel Tower just jumps out and speaks to me. (maybe it's because I have always loved to catch those fat bees in my hands!)
Lovely!

XXOO!!
