Courrier Magnifique

Magnificent mail!!! I treated myself! I think you will agree that I chose well!
The first is from the amazing creative team of Jenny and Aaron!

Look at the details!

I am sure you can see why I have decided to keep this up for a little while longer!!! This reminds me of being outside after dinner when I was a little girl. I loved the way the snow would sparkle at night. I remember thinking that the snow looked like diamonds. It was so quiet and peaceful! Well! This memory is captured so well in Jenny and Aaron's piece.

I also recently gave myself a treat by ordering from the fabulously talented Karin!

I LOVE IT! It is so beautifully delicate! She has skillfully placed vintage flocked wallpaper and regular vintage wallpaper (although there is nothing regular about this paper) around the face of the frame. She then puts the "Icing on the Cake"! A beautiful corsage of white flowers and velvet ribbon forming the base for the message "believe". Oh it is so beautiful... sweet, romantic and feminine yet grown up! Parfait!!!

Now look at this!

This also came from Karen as a gift!!!! I fell in love with her ornaments that she made this past Christmas. But I was not able to get on the internet much at all and visit all of you so I missed out on her ornaments. Gone! They were wooshed away to bring beaute` to others. She "found" one somehow and here it is in my home!!! I am going to keep this up for a time longer also!
OH MERCI KARIN, JENNY AND AARON!

Beautiful! Makes me take deep breaths!

I love your banner, too! Thank you for your kind words on my blog. Yes, with my first son, I vowed never to have toy guns in our home. Yet, somehow, guns were made from legos, forks and clay! By the time my 4th child arrived, my vow went out the window! If only army men were pink, all would be well in my pink house! Cindy
