This little heart made from old fabric and laces ,and with a beautiful Paper Whimsy image found when visiting NANCY on her wonderful blog, here.... I made today after finishing another doll!
When blogging you find so many beautiful friends, whom all have so very big and lovely hearts.
One of them is the very dear , and fabolous artist,-and my close dear friend, ever since we met ,last year : Suzy
Just look what the post brought me yesterday-
A fabolous journal, she made for me- as a gift - a gift just like that- !!!
Suzy had told me there was someting on i`ts way- but I never ,never thought , that that something would be this gorgeous journal.
The 10 pages is filled with beautiful and special fabric-and laces-in many layers,
combined as only Suzy is able to do , as she have her own very special touch to all she creates.
wonderful stamped pieces
Lovely ,lovely laces, can you see all those wonderful layers of beauty?
all kept in soft tones of aqua and earth
a little gold and rosa tones, too.
and more fantastic stamps---this is the back
and here I try to show, how wonderful "fat" it is!
This gift took my breath away,- It is a gorgeous labor of love- and I never imagined I would hold one of Suzy`s most beautiful journals in my hands.
I felt so thankful, holding this - I can`t express how much, but my heart is so touched , and I say
THANKYOU dearest Suzy, I love you -you know.
*****
Sunday morning I take another little trip to se my daughter, and grandkids an son in law- I am home again wednesday next week.
So dear friends ,if you don`t hear from me, you know why.....I will be back -visiting you all when returning home, eager to see and read all you have posted .
For now- happy week-end to you all-
Hugs and love-Dorthe

Oh what for lovely gifts from your friends Dorthe. You are a lucky girl.

Hvor er det smukt, Dorte, er det dig selv der laver det scrap? jeg holder af den måde du blander stof og papir. v.h. morkaren.
Sikken en utrolig bedårende og smuk bog! Hun har virkelig lagt meget kærlighed i den.
Ha' nogle rigtig dejlige dage hos din datter og familie, kære Dorthe.
Og selvfølgelig også en god weekend!
Varme hilsner herfra.
OMG Dorthe, you lucky lucky ducky! You got a journal from Suzy?!?!?!?! I adore her journals, she is such an incredible artist, and you have one, you can hold it in your hands and fondle it, and ooh and aaah over it. It is so beautiful, I bet you had trouble putting it down and getting on with other things. Can I be the tiniest bit envious? LOL, you know that I am very very happy for you, you are such a dear friend to all of us, you deserve being spoilt with beautiful gifts.
Hello Dorthe, it's me again... I tried to leave this as a reply to your comment to me but it came as a no-reply so here goes ~ first of all, thank you for your always sweet comments! The flower was made from burlap ribbon but it could be made from a yardage of burlap too. I just made the burlap into a rosette and then sewed it to the stocking. Happy Weekend ! t.xoxoxo

Your latest follower.
Dear Dorthe
Your heart is stunning, it is just so perfect in every way.
The gift from your friend well isn't that something special to treasure.
To sit and while away the hours looking at all the details and feeling the texture of the lace and trims.
I have a link for you, as you asked about Deko Ice. I hadn't forgotten, life hasn't been very good here due to elderly relatives.
The link I came across is
http://www.craft-supplies.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/efco_deco-ice.html
I was lucky enough to get the product when I was on a DT last year but that store is no longer open.
