These are all originals....one of a kind!  They are matted ....ready to put in a 5 x 7 frame.

For all the times of the year...including Birthdays.
I really love tags....I have been hooked on them for years!
While preparing all my goodies....I am watching these fun shows!  I just love being inspired by movies.
The cartoons bring back memories of being a kid and trick or treating.
More tags....like my zombie tags....featured in Somerset Holidays and celebrations magazine.
These Christmas ornaments were on the cover of that same magazine!
For the show ...I am going to display them on this wire tree.
Halloween goodies....pins, pincushions, hats....and more

Times have changed!!

I got a couple old magazines from the early 60's for a buck each at an antique show ....SCORE!
They are soooo much fun to look at......boy have things changed!  I am from the late 60's....born after these magazines...so it is amazing to me.
This is a Breck girl....wouldn't it be funny to make up your hair like this?   lol

This is super hold hair spray...remember when it was a stinky aerosol can that practically made you high?

I just bought some life cereal....which is still really good.  This is a fun ad.

Save 7 whole cents on a package....WOW!
Here is the very valuable coupon....I would love to try to use it....he he he

Ok...the food ads are usually pretty sick!  I love canned cranberry sauce....but this is funny because of the presentation.

Here we have an ad for pots....because we women are really interested in pots.
The other page is American Touristor luggage...so snazzy.

Kraft Mac and Cheese...looks good...except the background looks gloomy...I am always happy when having mac and cheese....and I never light a blue candle.

Coke always has great Ads.....makes ya want one doesn't it!

Yikes!!!!  Just make a vat of Spanish type rice and throw some hotdogs on top....presto...your dinner is done!  Don't forget that garnish on top!

This is a fashion spread.....the hair cracks me up....I told my daughter I was going to do that to her hair and she started running.

This dress is kind of cool....reminds me of what a gal would wear....waiting for Barnabas Collins to appear.

I don't even know how they got their hair like that.....

I have never seen Campbell soups look so strange....these are Men's favorites apparently.  These food ads don't tempt me.

Good old Jerry Lewis....he is winking at you!

Look at the camera.....ha ha ha
Times have changed!!!

I remember my grandma constantly buying flash cubes....things are so much easier now.

Here is your dinner for tonight!
Cook up a roast with assorted veggies....and then when no one is looking.....throw in the hunts tomato sauce........and it is ruined!!!   lol.
These magazines are totally worth every penny!

Kitty cat in a basket- freebie stitchery design

It's freebie Friday again!  Here is kitty cat in a basket.  I have made this up in a wool pin...using my many small scrap pieces of wool I have ...that I can't seem to throw away!  Do you have fabric scraps that you just can't part with? 

Yesterday I saw Titanic in 3d....very good....I just love that movie.  In the lobby was this great display....
My sister Cecilia and my daughter Selina...got close to Johnny Depp...AKA Barnabus Collins....he he he.  Selina was trying to give him a kiss....but she couldn't get close enough.
Have a great weekend and find as many eggs as you can!

Come to the party at ...Whipperberry...so many cool things....you'll love it.

Keep Calm..Now panic and Freak out!

Isn't this a good one!!!  It flips the "keep calm" sign around.....so much fun!
Here is alittle preview picture of the new movie "DArk ShaDows"...which I can't wait for.  I have been watching the old tv show on netflix....so addicting.  I saw them as a kid...but they were reruns.  I love playing the Dark Shadows game with my daughter and husband.  Hopefully this new movie will be good...I love Tim Burton movies.

Dark Shadows...can't wait

I loved the old Dark shadows!  It was so much fun....creepy , yet romantic.  I was too young when it aired originally..I had to see it when it was a rerun.  I loved Barnibus of course but I also loved his awful servant Willie.  I also thought Maggie Evans was the most beautiful woman in the world (I wanted to be her, but I was a strawberry blonde..lol).  We had a dark shadows game when we were kids....we played with it so much that it fell apart.  I got a replacement for it on ebay a few years ago and now my daughter, husband, and I play it.  It is sort of like candy land, but scary.

I can't wait for Johnny Depp to play Barnibus.  I know he will be different than the original, Jonathan Frid, but I wouldn't want it to be the same.  They are both so great.
Some things are worth the wait!
