I have some new card designs for Valentine’s Day this year. We recently moved into a home built on 2 acres that we bought in June 2011. While out exploring with my camera in hand, I came across a few heart shaped mushrooms. Recipients of a card featuring fungus will know that it was given in good “nature” as a symbol of friendship and love!  These and many other cards are available through me and at Vintage Roost this weekend and next.

Happy Valentine’s Day everyone!

 

I’ll have my Christmas cards at Vintage Roost again this season. Vintage Roost will be open for the Holidays on Fridays and Saturdays from November 22nd – December 13th. Here are just a few of the cards I’ll have for sale this season.

Have a wonderful holiday season!

It’s a day dedicated to showing your love and affection to friends and family. February 14th. And Vintage Roost wants to help you show that love by offering items crafted with love during its Valentine Open House this month. This is your invitation to visit Debbie’s sweet little shop in the country where my Studio Meringue will have Valentine cards available for you.

Where: The Vintage Roost

Seasonal Hours: Fridays & Saturdays, January 31st, February 1st, 7th & 8th, 10-5pm

935 NW Scenic Dr. 1/2 miles off Hwy 20 in North Albany

All major credit cards accepted!

Below is a look at a lot of the cards I’ll have available at Vintage Roost during its opening for the next two weekends.  All my photos are printed by me, using the highest quality matte finished photo paper and inks. The paper is not glossy with a matte pattern printed on top of it to tone down the gloss, it’s paper formulated to accept the ink in a way that makes my photos look like little pieces of art!  If my photo contains a flower, I print its name on the back of the card. When the card features a landscape, I print where the photo was taken on the back. I’m excited about some of the heart shapes I found in nature this last year to use in some of the cards you will see in this post. I hope that you will enjoy them and if you can’t make it to Vintage Roost you can always call or email me direct to purchase a card.  Thank you!

 

My last card in this post is a little out of my “ordinary”…. but it’s a heart!

This Friday and Saturday the 27th & 28th of September are the last days of the Autumn Open House at Vintage Roost. Pictured below are a few of the new cards I’ll have for sale at the Roost this last weekend.

Thank you!

Chilly mornings are upon us. But, for the moment, daytime temperatures are still rising to a nice and sunny warm. Great ending to a wonderful summer. As I write this post, it’s 79 degrees out on the deck. Vintage Roost is opening this Friday and Saturday for their Autumn Show. It will be open next Friday and Saturday also. So, September 20th & 21st 10-5 and then again on September 27th & 28th 10-5.  Vintage Roost is located at 935 NW Scenic Dr., 1/2 mile off of Hwy 20, Albany, Ore.

Below are a couple of photos of what you’ll see at the Roost and then a preview of a few of the cards I’ve made for this show.

This beautiful little flower is growing along side the street that we are building a house on. I have not identified it yet, if you recognize it let me know! I’ve made this photo into an Art Journal card. I’ve used my sewing machine to attach the photo and the card stock has a hint of speckle to it.

Thank you for visiting my website and I hope you can stop by Vintage Roost to enjoy the Autumn show!
