I'm Back...

Whew. The more I hurry, the behinder I get! Still, I'm making time for ornies in betwixt laundry, wrapping, cleaning, chores. This grand old ship may be my last ornie for my sea-theme tree (though I have some fish and shell scrap that would fit in nicely). I used 3-d dots to attach the ship to a very old newsprint from something called "Leisure Hour", dated 1870. This was yet another eBay purchase. Kinda hard to cut up this newspaper magazine, but that is why I bought it.
Here we have a Scottish Warrier for my Tartan tree. Along with that fabulous red, white & blue ribbon. I have managed to purchase 4 of these old fraternal ribbons from eBay this month. Besides being in such excellent shabby condition, nobody is making things like this anymore.
