I just love this vintage painting as found in the Instant Memories Book Children. The soft pastels are gorgeous and tell a story all their own!

Just beautiful, Coralie! I recently discovered some vintage postcards that were free to download. There is something about those soft, sweet colors on vintage items. I had a ball looking at all the different post cards. Enjoy your weekend! Vicki

How magical. One can see why those vintage prints so inspired children to live life a little fuller. A good illustrated children's book is better than any T.V. anytime.
