Whimsical Images

Hello :) In one of the Victorian scrapbooks are several images which look like they are part of possibly a trading card series. They're very whimsical, in that some of the clothes are made of flower petals, or there is some other type of fantasy element in them. There isn't any type of advertising or text on them, so unfortunately, I don't know any of the story behind them. Here are two of the images for you. I think they're quite cute, and hope you enjoy them too!

Thanks for stopping by! Hugs Diana

Beautiful Child

Hello! I hope you had a wonderful weekend! I'm not used to having a full weekend off from work, so I've apparently tried to cram in as much as possible into it! Having a yard sale, some antiquing, and enjoying some steamed crabs with good friends. I even managed to get a tiny bit of crafting worked in, so it's been an excellent couple of days!

Today's image is another from 'The Muncey' magazine, 1906. It is of a child actress, and she is stunning! Hard to believe her character is supposed to be five years old, but it is truly a beautiful photograph! I hope you'll love her as much as I! I'm posting the original scan, and a slightly tweaked copy for you.

Thanks for stopping by! Hugs d.
