Can't wait to go back to the Flea Market

This journal page is about collecting.  I love to collect cool found objects.  Some of my favorite things are vintage charms, old photos, holiday and travel postcards, luggage labels, foreign fabric, ribbons, bottle caps, milk caps, old advertising, & vintage German ornaments.  I like shiny and colorful things.  Maybe I am a raccoon!  To think it all started with something big.  I used to collect quilts, and now most of my treasures are small!

Merry Christmas!

Here are two more journal pages.  I have had some time over the school holiday to try to catch up on my journal adventure.  Only 20 more pages to get caught up!  

Cool Things from the Post

I found these wonderful vintage items on Etsy.  Thought I'd share them here.  I love to get mail!!  I can't wait to find cool things to store inside the plaid lunch pail.

More School ATC Cards

Here are more of the ATC cards that go with the School Paper Bag Album.  

School Paper Bag Book

The photos above are my twins.  Bella is wearing a Pioneer costume for Statehood Day that I wore when I was in third grade!

Here is my stepson Chris and the cute girl is my mom as a child.  Her mother was quite a seamstress.

Once again the twins and me as a child.  Love that plaid dress.

The first photo is from my dad's childhood.  Here is my oldest daughter then and now.  Below is my other stepson Paul at Disney World.  I think he looks like a model here.

I LOVE to make paper bag books with a theme and then create ATC cards to fill them.  Here is one I just finished-I had been working on it off and on for over a year; when I was in the mood.  It may be one of my favorites!  Hope you like it.
