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!!!

Wonderful card, Susan! Love the quote and lovely vintage purse image. My grandmother was like that w/ her accessories. My mom carries a purse that needs wheels. I'm like you...find one and wear it out.

Wonderful card and sentiment! I'm more like you - use one I like till it falls apart. Although my intentions are to switch it up more often, I never seem to do it!

Susan you've been away awhile, but I recognized your style right away. I love this and what an awesome sentiment. How true that we put so much into our purse! I love this.
