Absolutely stunning creations from Yvonne - what a joy to receive such works of art!

And you just scared me... I think it's JULY 1st that we lose the Google Reader!! I'm so upset about it. Really don't like the bloglovin interface, or feedly much - and then if they close Feedburner, even the emails start to go wrong - it's all so confusing.

Dearest Dorthe
What a very special gift from Yvonne!
She is such a talented fabric artist and a very kind generous friend too.

WOW - all of her pages are "out of this world" and I know you will be picking it up many times to enjoy looking at all the beautiful details.

I'm drooling over the french fabric, and the bag is an "Yvonne original". I love the lace sampler on the bag.....

Wishing you a wonderful weekend and I hope it's sunny and warm so you can re-energise after your long winter!
I'm off to France in a couple of weeks... can't wait!
Hugs
Shane ♥

Good morning my sweet Dorthe,
Finally I'm here to share in the viewing of your most wonderful gifts from dear Yvonne. The bag was designed especially with your in mind and it makes it even more special.
The little book is incredibly beautiful as only Yvonne could create in her sweet style using superb images, laces, doilies and rose fabrics.
I really know about the joy in receiving such a special gift dearest friend and wish you many hours in appreciating these wonderful things. The birds nests are so unique and the fabrics are so very beautiful and rare.
My love and biggest hugs go to you with this,
Suzy xoxox

Stunning!!

Emilie said...

Det er simpelthen sådan nogle flotte gaver, du modtager fra alle verdens hjørner. Jeg er virkelig imponeret over, hvad både dig og dine blog-veninder kan fremtrylle af smukke kreationer. Jeg kan godt forstå, du er glad og beæret over at modtage sådanne kreationer.

Vi har haft fint vejr her de sidste dage - især i lørdags. I går, søndag, blæste det dog helt vanvittigt meget, så selvom vi havde solskin, var det en kold fornøjelse at opholde sig udenfor.

Jeg har ikke selv sået mine blomster, så det er nok derfor, de allerede står så flot. Når jeg engang får en have, vil jeg gerne købe frø og se blomsterne vokse op, men denne gang har jeg "snydt" lidt og købt dem. :-)

Fortsat rigtig god uge til dig fra mig.

Oh MY so much beauty...what a delight it must be to turn each and every page of Yvonne's gorgeous book!

and Dorthe you are so good about sharing so many details with us...I know that takes time...you always make time to be kind and gracious and sweet!
Thank you for sharing ♥

Guten Morgen, liebe Dorthe!

Wonderful treasures zeigst Du uns! I love this Journal and the beautiful blue Butterfly! Wonderful Colors and stunning styles. So schön, liebe Freundin und es passt alles so schön zur Jahreszeit!
Alles ist so frisch und neu im Garten, ich liebe es und könnte den ganzen Tag im Gartencenter sein und neue Blumen kaufen. Aber, so groß ist unser Garten nicht.
So male ich ein wenig, fotografiere und schreibe Gedichte. So wunderschön ist die Sonne für meine Seele!

Ich hoffe, dass Deine Blumen bald alle blühen und Deine Seele auch :)

Thank you so much also for your kind words on my blog. I am so glad to read you, dear friend. Your words are like little flowers with a bright shine of love and happiness.
I love you, dear friend! Hugs and love to you - from your friend Erika
