TEACUP TUESDAY

This is the second week for Martha's & Terri's Tea Cup Tuesday, but it is the first week for me. Terri is a great friend that I met through the Marie Antoinette Mail Art Group and Martha is a very nice lady who I met through Terri. I have been collecting tea cups since I was a teenager and my Mom also collects Teacups. The one I am going to share with you today is very special. When my husband and I got married we did not register to get china and after 10 years of marriage, for Christmas my husband picked out a place setting and gave it to me with the understanding that I could pick out any one I wanted, but I loved the one he picked so I got a 12 place setting of this beautiful china. It is Noritake, and the name is Rothchild. I know that it is not real old, but I love the vintage look and colors. It is so pretty at Easter time. Thank you Martha and Terri, this has been fun.

MY 4 X 4 BOOK PAGES ARE FINISHED

These pages are for a 4 x 4 book swap for the Marie Antoinette Mail Art Group. It is hosted by a wonderful lady Rhonda, who makes all the 4 x 4 books so special. I really enjoyed making these, I hope the ladies like them. The Marie image is from: http://www.etsy.com/shop/frenchkissed.
