Pink Valentine & A Giveaway Winner!
A delightful blog which I recently discovered, at Beverley's Pink Saturday gathering, is Over the Rainebeau. A wonderful place where talented artist Lorraine showcases her gorgeous altered art creations and shares vintage images every Friday.
I saw these beautiful vintage Valentines there and knew they would be perfect for a scrapbook page I had planned.
I used them in my take on the February Sketch Challenge layout over at The Scrapbook Haven and I'm chuffed to say that it has been chosen to feature in the gallery this week.
Now, drum roll please..................... it's time to announce the winner of The World of Downton Abbey giveaway!! Everyone who answered the question "How did Pamuk die" answered C - which is correct, so give yourselves a pat on the back! but there can be only one winner and that is Riet @ Riet's photoblog
Riet is a very talented photographer who lives in the Netherlands where she finds inspiration all around for the beautiful mosaics which she creates. If you haven't already met Riet then do take a few minutes to check out her blog, I'm sure you'll be glad that you did. Linking this post to the mega Valentine's Par-tay @ Bargain Hunting and Chatting with Laurie and sweet Beverley @ How Sweet the Sound for Pink Saturday. The Tablescaper just stopped by and asked me to link this post to Seasonal Sundays. too.

Lovely images and I love your page! It's always nice to meet another scrapbooker/collager/altered art enthusiast. I was reading your profile and I'm ever so envious of your description of where you live. Oh how wonderful life must be! I'm so glad I found your blog and I'm now happily following. Happy Pink Saturday and Happy Valentine's day.

Oh Maggie, your Valentine page is beautiful! Congratulations on being featured. I can see why it is featured. Thanks so much for linking this to the party. laurie
Hi Maggie,
Your Valentine creation is just gorgeous! I love that vintage look.
Congratulations to Riet on winning your giveaway. I didn't enter because we are just now watching Season 1 on Netflix and are behind everyone else.
Ironically, we just watched this episode last night. I didn't really care for Pamuk. I told my husband having him stay at Downton Abbey was like setting the fox loose in the hen house. :)
Happy Seasonal Sunday, Maggie!
