Pale Green

I love this vintage wallpaper with it's soft pale green shade with contrasting white and colored bouquets, it really is one of my favorites, so I used some for this sweet little notebook.
PhotobucketPretty, Pretty!
I love checking the mail and waiting for sweet little things like this old doll I bought from Beth
that I just love ,I think I have a thing for old pretty dolls scince I just can't help buying them all the time.

Whew! It has been so hot here , I can hardly get anything done . It was a 100 here today and It's supposed to be a scorcher tommarow too, I hate to go out because the ac isn't working in my car and even with a sunroof it doesn't help when trying to catch a warm breeze because that's all you get. But despite all that I decided to go to goodwill anyway and oh my it was the hottest 4 mile drive ever! Goodwill has been slim pickins lately but I keep looking anyway , found an old vase and that was about it.
Picked these up at a sale , cute little hanging vases , once the heat dies down I think I'll hang them from the tree in the yard with a garden rose in each...

The notebook is so pretty. And the little doll is so cute. I love her expression - she looks like she's looking at a wasp on her nose!

I love that wallpaper too! Vintage wallpaper over here is 99 out of a 100 times the beige/cream one with the very moderate pattern :-(
I wish my package arrived, I am getting a little nervous. And of course at this very moment your ac doesn't work, too bad. I cannot stand waiting actually, can you?
