Seeing as how you've been working so hard in my Twitter class all week I thought I'd let you relax today by flicking through one of my carboot sale discoveries; a Girls Crystal Annual from 1960 which cost me all of 25p!
Feel free to curl up on the sofa with some chocolate while you browse:
The front papers feature some lovely nostalgic illustrations:
And there's some great melodramatic stories going on inside:
Check out "that prying minx"!
Then there's 'happy-go-lucky' Bill and his badge of magic powers!
And what girl's annual would be complete without something set in a boarding school?
Whatever you're doing today I hope it's a good one.
I'm having a day off. I'm not planning to work on any commissions, projects, future-class planning ... or even current e-lessons! I'm just waiting for some gesso to dry and then I'll be off art-journaling ... I've even cleared my desk in preparation ... so I must be determined no?
See you very soon.
