Jill, thank you so much for your amazing ATC and darling little Christmas drawstring bag. The ATC was a little girl in front of a Christmas tree on top of pretty fabric and loved the holly embellish ments. You really spoiled me with the Dove chocolate and I adore how it was wrapped with the pretty Christmas paper, button and ribbon. Even the package it was mailed in was decorated so fancy. Thanks for being my partner and thank you CJ for hosting.

Hi Emily, here is a picture (not a very good one unfortunately) of the ATC. This was taken Christmas of 1944. She was very proud of her new coat, hat and doll. I just love this photo! Love old photos of all kinds!
Hugs, Tammy

Tammy,
That picture is so sweet! I had to laugh when I saw the "naughty or nice?" above such a sweet little girl, not to mention your mother, holding her dolly!! Lol!

Beth, Your three-dimensional "Wonders of a Toy Shop" ATC arrived yesterday. Loved the little box it was in and the cute little ceramic Santa. Darling "Yesteryear" Christmas card you made as well. Thanks so much. I love all the detail on the ATC, it had it all, Santa, train, teddy bear candy cane and presents!

Linda,
Finally got the trim to stick to your ATC I made for you. It is on its way. Sorry it took me so long. I finally found some glue called 3-in-1 Beacons advanced craft glue. I have to say, I believe this glue could hold bricks on a house. Found it at Hobby Lobby. Good stuff.
I love the ATC you sent me. The little girl holding the dolls make me think of myself when I was little. (Many Many moons ago and then some.) My hair was really curly like hers. And like her I loved my dollies.. I love the colors. She will be on display in my craft room.
I hope this picture turns out.
Thank you, I will treasure her forever and will enjoy adding her to my collection.
Hugs! Debbie H Buzzn Bee

Okay, Farmgirl ATC-ers, eat your hearts out . . . I got a DOLL HOUSE!!!
This is the bi-fold ATC that Emily made for me . . I think it is just ADORABLE!!
This is the front of it before you open it and you have to use the key!
And, this is the inside, lacy curtains, potted plant, furniture, fridge, mirror, framed wall art . . . the works! Just ADORABLE!!!
Thank you Emily, I JUST LOVE IT! CJ

Wow CJ, everyone has received beautiful ATC's, but yours is beyond...just beyond creative! Like Connie said...I wouldn't have expected anything less from Emily. She is lovely and so very very talented.
