Have you met my friend, Linda Crispell? I did- thanks to this oddly personal & relationship forming computer machine before me- and I'm so grateful! I first discovered Linda thanks to Mary Englebreit's Home Companion-remember this article? I am obsessed with her antique church bulletin case and her vintage cake decoration collection. (I wish I could go treasure hunting along with Linda and her husband! They must know all the best places!) She is also a mixed-media artist after my own heart! I found out that we have used the same vintage imagery in our works!! Linda shares funny stories from her life and sneak peeks of her art and Etsy-shop goodies on her blog here. Thanks for your friendship and support, Linda! xo
Remember this lovely confection of cakes and pottery?

Thank you so much Katie! I am so flattered by your kind words. I will gladly go treasure hunting with you any time! I am so intrigued by all of the wonderful shops you have blogged about. It has been so wonderful meeting people like you and getting to peek inside their creative worlds.
Your Pal,
Linda
Once again Katie, I want to say I think we were separated at birth. I have this very article in a folder and it is all wrinkled because I handle it so much. I googled Linda and had no luck. I am so pleased you made contact with her and got all these links posted. You have competition girl, I have also been hunting high and low for a church bulletin just like Linda's.
