Im sure MANY of you ladies are familiar with the OUT OF THIS WORLD GORGOUES Marie Antoinette International Round Robin book. The lovely Miss Holly, Natahsa, Heather, and GINNY all collaborated in this project. When I first laid eyes on the BREATHTAKING pages I fell head over heels in love. I would just LOVE to get my hands on that book and "Oooh and Aaaah" over every page! I than decided to ask sweet Ginny if she would be willing to create a Marie Antoinette collage for me. To my excitement she agreed and "TA-DA!" here is the DIVINE piece!

Ginny and I both agree that she would have been an EXCELLENT Court Dressmaker back in that time and era. Maybe, just maybe she was one in a past life? 🙂   

Now I want to introduce to you Miss Georgia. She is a custom bunny box for a wonderful and super lovely Aussie friends of mine. The name was given to by my friend. This girlie little springtime bunny is catching butterflies.
