Embellished French Perfume Bottle and Notecard Trio GIVEAWAY

Hot Summertime greetings!
I hope you are keeping cool and refreshed during this record-setting hot spell! I heard on the news that it is 110 degrees in Kansas YIKES! That makes our 100 seem kinda chilly . . . I keep telling myself that ;-)
I think it's about time for another giveaway don't you?? Today is my sister Cindy's birthday and that's a good reason for a giveaway celebration!
The favorites have been for my Embellished Bottles and this one has a unique twist!
TA DA!!
This giveaway (#15) includes a crystal clear embellished glass bottle ~ sans image this time ~ and a trio of French Perfume Bottle Notecards fashioned after some of my previously sold bottles! A natural progression from glass to paper :-)
The bottle is 5-3/4" high including the removable ball style glass topper and is complemented with pretty pink ribbon and vintage lace bows, vintage 1940's millinery rose, silk rosebuds, teensy ivory posies, a rhinestone flower and silvertone bow and heart charm.
Personally I love them empty and sparkling with the sun shining thru but you can fill with tiny buttons, pearls, beads, bath salts, etc.


The 3 ~ blank inside any occasion notecards ~ showcase some of our favorite Frances Brundage images. Two sweet Victorian girlies and the ever popular Southern Belle! They have ribbons, roses, a heart locket and mini skeleton key and a faceted crystal stopper. Just a hint of fine glitter for a bit of shimmer.

The original designs were created by me using vintage images, old graphics and some hand-drawn items too!

GiveAway Winner & what I've been up to

Greetings! I hope you are enjoying the same gorgeous ~ not so hot ~ summer day as we are here in Midwestern Illinois!
The winner for my embellished bottle giveaway is Debbie from Debbie-Dabble! Congratulations Debbie ~ I will contact you for your shipping info and hope you enjoy. Check out her inviting porch!
Please stop in again very soon for the next giveaway.
I have just finished up a batch of custom bottle orders for some special ladies at Victoria Rose Cottage and as you already know they are my very favorite things to create! They love the very foufy fancy ones!
I have been a busy busy bee and really need to get over to eBay and get some things listed before I run out of room HA! I had a really nice response to the smaller embellished bottles I made for eBay so have about 20 more to list . . .

 plus darling vintage lace patchwork pincushions . . .
(Update - all 5 of the pincushions are SOLD)
loads of original notecards sets which include hang/gift tags and cute teabag covers . . .

 and of course pillows . . .

I get caught up in the creating and forget about the biz part!

Hugs and Smiles,
Lynn
