Yesterday I've also finished this "Valentines paper girl":
and a round Bird & Nest collage which I'm going to show you in my next post because Blogger won't let me post anymore pictures tonight. I'm quite happy that I had time to spend in my studio corner for the last two days, don't you just love creative weekends too?

Your heart as well as the little girl look great!
Carol.....YOur Vintage Valentine is beautiful! Would be so pretty hanging in a window:) Love the doll also:) Thanks for your comments on my blog. Always love hearing from you! Linda
Hi Carol, I have been lurking around your blog (and enjoying it!) for months now. Your crafts are always so beautiful! I just started blogging a week ago and I have been tagged. So, I am tagging you! If you'd like to participate, please come to my blog and take a peak.
Ein herziger Post. Kannst du mir mal bitte verraten wie du die kleinen Herzchen zwischen den Fotos fabriziert hast???????
Schöne Herzen.
Hi Carol,
I haven't been able to use blogger for a couple of weeks. I don't know what was wrong with it! But I really hated it.
I'm glad to found out it's finally working again.
You have some lovely posts with beautiful photo's. At least I still was able to watch my favourite blogs sometimes, just wasn't able to post anything.
The swap sounds great!!
I will go and take a look at her blog.
Guess what happened...... I had not received all the christmas ornaments( 3 where missing) , today the postman brought me a package from Daisy Lupin. It has been on it's way from 21 November!
I'm real glad to receive it.
Wunderschöne Herzen hast Du gebastelt.
Du hast immer so tolle Ideen, ich wünschte, ich hätte die Zeit, wenigstens ein bißchen was davon als Anregung zu nehmen und auch mehr Kreatives machen zu können!
Goodness. You've been a buzy bee! =^..^=
Don't you just love paper dolls?
This little one is adorable!
I have an affinity for Valentine's Day
Hearts and flowers ... What could be better?
Chocolate maybe. Can't forget the chococlate!
I've been playing with things for Valentine's
Day too ... But mostly ideas must just sit inside
my head or be placed inside a book for now...
But I love the paperdoll idea!
Of course at my cottage, the paperdolls are
all of tiny animals ... and I'm the one playing!
I'm forgetting that blogger likes to dump
me out ... so I'd best hurry off and click send ...
Love you! =^..^= zU
Hi Carol,
Your hearts are beautiful and I love the paper valentine girl.
I took a peak at Anita's hearts and they are beautiful too.
I would sign up for the swap, but I"ve committed myself to a few other projects and don't think I will have enough time between now and then.
I do love creative days and need more of them!
I'm looking forward to your nest. Your bird collages are some of my favorites.
Yes, I jsut entertained a creative weekend...wil be posting my finished master bedroom soon on stuffintheburbs...
You all have me beat a country mile.
Carol you continue to inspire us all with these wonderfully happy pink colored projects that you do so well! I am joining in the fun w/ Anita !
Glad that you made time for my ~friendship tea~ yesterday!
Hugs NG
Schade, dass du nicht nähst, Carola. Dann bräuchtest du nicht nur das Wochenende, sondern die vier-Tage-Woche!
Al :-)
WOW Carol, You have been a busy girl! The heart is so beautiful - I love the rose in the centre.
I would love to join the Nostalgic Heart Swap, but as I make my living from crafting, I just can't afford to loose the time at the moment...hope you understand. Good luck with it, swaps are great fun and whoever joins will be glad that they did!

Carol these are absolutely delightful, you really make me want to have a go at this myself, maybe I will but not as a swap as I'm useless with deadlines and time constrictions.
These are absolutely beautiful! You do such lovely work! Such gorgeous colors and designs. I am so pleased to have found your blog. My grandfather and his family were from Germany (Nauendorf originally, then Leipzig).
fein was du da wieder gemacht hast Carol! Liebe Grüße*Nicole
Schon wieder ein so schönes Herz! Die Herzomanie scheint ausgebrochen. Lange werde ich es nicht mehr aushalten, dann muss ich wohl auch eines anfangen. Es würde so gut an den alten Bauernschrank passen. Liebe Grüße, Birgit
Lovely paper girls Carol!!!Isnt it nice to create something different.
What a beautiful Valentine.
How wonderfuly creative you are!
Wow Carol, ich wünschte, ich hätte nur ein bisschen von deiner kreativen Ader! Wirklich wunderschöne Dinge, die du entwirfst. Ich wünsche dir auch weiterhin so viele tolle Ideen und die Muße, diese umzusetzen.
Liebe Grüße, Verena
Your Valentine girl is so sweet! I love the idea of the heart swap. How wonderful that you've had a couple of days to play in your studio.
Your Nostaligic Heart is beautiful ! I love it !
And your paper doll is quite a delight too !
