I look forward to the monthly Note Card Party, hosted by Vee at A Haven for Vee.It's really simple to participate and a great opportunity to meet other bloggers. Just choose 4 pictures from previous posts that would make a good note card. I like to keep a theme.
This month it's "The Girls". I value my network of girlfriends, and like movies and books about courageous women. One of my favorite quotes is from Eleanor Roosevelt, "Women are like teabags. You never know how strong they are until they get in hot water."
This Vogue pattern is a nod to my mother.
She was strong and beautiful and stylish, and she sewed for us.
I'm not sure why I decorate with pictures of women, but there you go.
One of the pictures below was my mother's and perhaps it was just a
way to continue her presence in my life.
These are all cropped closeups of pictures hanging in my house.
This sweet cherub is in my dining room
This young lady is in the hall bath
This beauty is also in the dining room
And this one was originally in my dress shop hanging
behind the jewelry counter
You can see the original Our Girls here, with proper attributions for the artwork.
Thank you Vee for a fun party!
I'm puttin' on some sparkle and goin' a-visitin'
Counting My Blessings
