WHAT I MADE WITH MY CHARMS


Rhonda hosted a wonderful bead charm swap with the Marie Antoinette Mail Art Group, we made 25 silver and pink charms and sent them to her and she swapped them out and I received 25 of the most beautiful pink and silver charms. I put them on a silver charm bracelet. I love the way it turned out and will love wearing it and will treasure it. Thank you to all the lovely ladies who joined. It was a wonderful swap and I hope we do more. Thank you Rhonda so much for hosting this great swap. Thanks for visiting my blog today and I hope you have a wonderful day. Hugs, Terri

MY FRENCH/MARIE BOOK IS FINISHED









In June, I hosted this French/Marie Book Ephemera Swap with the Marie Antoinette Mail Art Group, we had two partners and we swapped ephemera, papers, beautiful cloth, ribbons, tags, jewels and then we made our own books to keep. I had great partners, Robin and Debi, they sent me some beautiful things that I have used in my book. I really enjoyed this swap, we are to have our books done by August 1st, so that we can show everyone. Thanks for visiting me today and I hope you have a wonderful day. Hugs, Terri

TEA CUP TUESDAY



Hi Everyone, the teacup that I would like to share with you today is a teacup that I just purchased while on vacation. Most of the teacups that I have are pink, so I wanted to find some beautiful blue ones. I purchased this teacup in Snohomish, WA at a wonderful antique store, I love the blue color and the design. It is a Royal Albert teacup and the name of the pattern is Enchantment and it has the year 1950 on it. Thank you Terri and Martha for Tea Cup Tuesday's, you can click the button on my side bar to see everyone's beautiful teacups. Thank you stopping by my blog today, I appreciate your wonderful comments. I hope everyone has a wonderful week. Hugs, Terri

HAPPY FIRST ANNIVERSARY STEPHEN & NICOLE



It was one year ago today that our son Stephen and his beautiful bride Nicole were married. It was such a wonderful and special day, as a parent it was one of the best days of my life. I am so happy that they found each other. Happy Anniversary Stephen and Nicole. Many, many more. We love you both.























I am back from our wonderful vacation, we had such a wonderful time and the sites were unbelievable. Alaska is such a big state and such beautiful scenes. It was a great time with our son and his lovely wife, we went on trains, planes, buses, boats, rafts, yes they talked me into white water rafting, you had to wear a special suit because the water is so cold, we took a small plane around Mt. McKinley, which is so beautiful. Unfortunately, I came down with a virus a day before we came home, and it has been a very rough two weeks, at first I thought it was a cold, but now I believe it was a flu, I am feeling better, but still get so tired easily. I hope you enjoy the pictures that I posted and thank you for visiting my blog. I hope you have a wonderful week. The first two pictures are of the new home of my son Stephen and his lovely wife Nicole.
