Lots of calico, muslin, liberty, mother of pearly buttons too. The stamp, date mark and hand writing is so beautiful. Over 130 years old, the stories it could tell. It's only small but very lovely. SOLD Woo hoo!

Another item for sale is a sketchbook with another Letter Card collaged and embroidered. This was sent in the 40's by a sailor to his mum in London from Butlins Holiday Camp. He signed himself as 'your sailor boy, Arthur'. This is a photo from the Letter Card, it's obviously the Camp Site Chef. Does'nt he look jolly!

wow some beautiful picks. I see I am in good company with some of my favorite glass artists. thanks so much for featuring my blue rose pendant
okay - so you knew I collected glass beads? so you knew that i'd HAVE to check into that shop? and now I HAVE to buy something!!!!! twas a ploy!
LOL!!!!!
great feature for this week - I visited the Island Glass centre on the Isle of wight over the summer and although the glass they did there was very beautifully done there was alot of emphasis on browns, greens and gold - not my favourites - so I'm very excited to check out these shops!
DAMN IT!!! LOL!
I'm $77 poorer and Flamekeeper is $77 richer and its all your fault!
I love that envelope! Your work is beautiful, as always. Great etsy finds too--I enjoyed perusing them over a cup of coffee (I get coffee on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays!)
beautiful!
Hehee!! You sent me half an acre, thank you so much :D But really, I'm very honored that you chose my beads to feature! I see some of my favorites in there too :D Thank you so much!
Love the beads.
I also love the flower you have printed on your envelope.

I've just read the comments and I wanted to say exactly what Kayla said..the flower drawing is lovely. The envelope is too. Its really a lovely idea to use them in that way.
Pooh!!! I just thought I'd found my birthday present and you've sold it already.
The mono-printing is lovely. I'll just have to keep looking and get an "I owe you" from hubby.
Wow Viv...i love the antique card..how beautiful and congratulations on the sale...i'm not surprised it sold..it's lovely.

Sold?! You're a big tease. I can see why though - it's stunning. I like the Skegness one too - I used to go to Skegness to a conference thingy (ever heard of Spring Harvest?).
I love your envelopes.
