Hey Anne, great choice for Saturday's IC! I was captivated by the pocketbooks, a Southern term to be sure. When I saw this bag, purse, handbag I knew just what I would create.
Now I might have cramped this quote:
Though we travel the world over to find the beautiful, we must carry it with us or we find it not.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
by putting it in my pocketbook, but it made me think of my dearly loved mother, who keeps her purses in the front hall so she can match her bag and shoes as she is going out the door. Now me...I find one I like and carry it to death!!!
Thanks for hanging with me this long and have a safe and happy Labor Day weekend!!!

Susan, I didn't even have to look at the name on this, I knew it was yours in your wonderful shabby retro collage style! (And may I just say how wonderful it is to see you in the gallery again!! ) Love the detail on this, the way you circled "carry" to emphasize the theme of your design. You're artistry is in high gear!! You made my day! Hugs GF!!
