Happy New Year to my wonderful blogging buddies! You made 2011 a much better year for me! Even when my posts were sometimes, duddies. Even when my life seemed to be a complete mess, you were there to cheer me up and give me your best. You laughed with me, and listened to my rants even when the mailbox lizard went down my pants! Even when my creative mojo had left me behind, you made sure I didn't lose my mind! But most of all, you were there with a smile across all those miles, To my friends, for all you do, Happy New Years to you!
Auld Lang Syne, indeed.
Happy Friday friends! This weeks fun Just Add Ink challenge is from Fiona and she has challenged us to create a CAS project...pretty much my fave style of crafting! I couldn't resist inking up and colouring the new to me By My Side stamps for this one. I started with a blended patch in Wild Wheat & Pecan Pie inks and a simple diecut from the Share a Milkshake dies. The sweet image is coloured with Lemon Lime Twist - Wild Wheat blends and the skintone blends in SU500-SU800-Ivory & the colour lifter. I also added some tiny hearts using the retired border punch and some finetip glue was added to the glasses. Lots of lovely Clean & Simple projects from the team, so click the link for a peek at those. Thanks for stopping by! All supplies used are Stampin Up!

I thought it would be fun to start off the New Year with a few vintage images of postcards from the early 1900's that celebrates moving out of the old and into the new. There are also some great Raphael Tuck & Sons Victorian Scraps and paper dolls at the bottom of the post. Happy New Year to you all! Early 1900's New Year's "Toast" card by Raphael Tuck One of my new interests are items created by Raphael Tuck, so while browsing for "Tuck" paper dolls and other items; I've come across a nice selection of cards produced by them. Here are some of those finds related to New Years. Pretty New Years Lady Card from early 1900's - Raphael Tuck Raphael Tuck was a late 1800's early 1900's company known of producing paper products with pretty ladies and sweet children. They had several collections of paper dolls over the years and the images they produced on postcards such as these are reminiscent of the paper dolls they sold. c1910 Raphael Tuck New Years Postcard - from series 603 - two girls with flowers c1910 Raphael Tuck New Years Postcard - from series 603 -girl with bells c1910 Raphael Tuck New Years Postcard - from series 603 - girl in blue c1910 Raphael Tuck New Years Postcard - from series 603 - girl with flower basket c1910 Raphael Tuck New Years Postcard - from series 603 -beaded card This postcard from the 603 series has crystal beads applied to it and would have cost a bit more that the other cards in the series that did not have this extra bit of "frosting". c1910 Raphael Tuck New Years Postcard - from series 603 - holly & flowers girl c1910 Raphael Tuck New Years Postcard - from series 603 -Two girls with flowers c1910 Raphael Tuck New Years Postcard - from series 603 -girl with rose c1910 Raphael Tuck New Years Postcard - from series 603 -girl with bow & flowers I'm not sure how many cards were part of the Raphael Tuck & Sons "Golden Years" 603 series but I can see how these cards would have been a popular choice both then and now. ***** I just wanted to add in a few other items Raphael Tuck and Sons made so you get an idea of the other fun collectibles out there by this amazing company. Uncut sheet of Raphael Tuck Doll Parts - Victorian Scraps This doll sheet recently sold on eBay for $175.00 I considered buying this sheet myself but the damage to it overrode the $175.00 beginning bid price for me. Paper doll parts such as these were used to assemble "articulated" paper dolls similar to the L&B ballerinas I posted back in 2012. Add a torso and then create and embellished skirt to "cloth" each doll. Several Victorian print companies produced this kind of "craft" doll. You can see a few other examples of this kind of child doll - HERE A Set of 4 Raphael Tuck Lady Heads - Victorian Scraps Victorian scraps were quite popular in the past as they are by collectors today. Lady heads such as these could be used to create an assortment of crafts or could simply be collected and placed into scrapbooks of their day. Fair Frances of the Little Maids paper doll series by Raphael Tuck - 1894 Raphael Tuck paper dolls are highly collectibles; when you see sets like this how could you resist? The girl doll are so sweet to look at and there are so many to collect. One paper doll set from the Bride Series by Raphael Tuck - 1894 If child dolls aren't your thing then there are other paper dolls with more grown up appeal, such as this one from the 1894 Bride Series. Basically there is a large assortment of paper collectibles produced by Raphael Tuck and Sons between the years of 1866 - 1959. c1900 Mechanical Paper Squirrel - Raphael Tuck & Sons There are postcards, greeting cards, actress cards, royal commemorates, books, paper dolls, Victorian scraps of all kinds, and even miniature paper models. Victorian Paper Scraps - Flowers - Raphael Tuck & Sons c1890 RT&Sons created a large assortment of paper scraps in the Victorian/Edwardian period. There were flowers, foliage, buildings, animals, people, decorations, and even clock faces. My favorites so far are the dolls, lady heads and model theaters but I'm sure as I continue to look I'll spot many more items to add to my growing, vintage collection. I will be posting more about Raphael Tuck paper collectibles and other vintage paper products from my collection in the upcoming year, so visit again soon. Happy New Year!!!!

Happy New Year! I hope you had a wonderful holiday season! Pion Design has released another beautiful paper collection called The Songbird’s Secret.
