Catching up - C, D and E

Hi all, I am back in the UK again now, and spent yesterday in my craft room trying to catch up on things. Here are my catch-up tags for the last three weeks -

C is for CORSET - 

I used two different ads from a 1909 French magazine called Je Sais Tout, one  for the background scene, which was an ad for a furniture company and one for the corset, which apparently was created by Madame Bellanger :-). I love these old advertisements. The tie-on ribbon is a piece of corset string.

D is for DRESS -

What a dress, eh? Can you imagine walking around in one of these? I did love the colour though, and I found a piece of antique French braid which matched pretty well, and some nice blue bling as well.

E is for EIFFEL TOWER -

Having just spent three weeks in France, it had to be E for Eiffel Tower of course. I use this particular image from one of my old postcards a lot.

It is great to be back! Toodlepip xxx
