Little Augury is one of my very favorite blogs; always full of amazingly unique images, always inspirational, and always creative. Once again I am inspired by your Interview with Ms Tapp and to view more of her Fabulous card collection! Her creativity is a gift to all of us!

Little Augury, one of my long time favorite blogs, was so beautifully described by you. PGT is inspirational, always bringing out the most interesting sophisticated images in her posts for all of us to aspire towards. With Parthenia, she continues to create dreams!

So beautiful.

I first heard of her beautiful blog through Lisa's blog: A Bloomsbury Life. it is indeed a fascinating place, created by a fascinating woman.

Here via, Pamela from The House of Edward. Loved your comment there and had to see who it was that made it.

HI DEAR FRIENDS-

Thank you for your wonderful messages regarding the great and elusive and mysterious PGT.
Patricia Gaye Tapp sent me some sample cards--and they are so beautiful and delicious.
I've had such lovely response to this feature. I am delighted. I hope you'll just send her a message, ask her to send you some cards (state our style and motive) --and then send to friends. They will me thrilled and delighted and happy beyond compare.
cheers to you all, DIANE

Diane,

Thank you for introducing me to this blog. There are so many great ones it's hard to keep up! I hope you are well. So glad you like Ragland Hill Social. I just love being part of the blog world.

Dear Diane,

I have to read your posts many times.
Your elegant and insightful posts do inspire.
With this one, I appreciate the handwork to create something unique with a sensibility.
It was a pleasure to see the personal work of someone who has appreciated and discussed the fine arts. There is such a delight in that.
Thank you, Diane

First time here, clicked over from Little Augury's site. So glad I did! Fun learning a bit more about this mysterious blogger. Not to mention her lovely cards. I always seem to learn something on her site. Something tells me if I nosed around a bit more over here, the same would be true.

Always something wonderful and surprising over here, Diane. Thanks.

I've been trying repeatedly to get an updated feed of your blog on my sidebar, but for some reason it has been stuck for two weeks. I will keep trying!

Diane, you continually deposit little bits of heaven into our lives. It all adds up to one marvelous paradise. Gaye's work is divine, and it's thrilling to see more of it here. Another thousand thanks.

Hi Diane!
Oneof my New Year's resoulutions was to take more time and look into more new blogs. Thanks for enlightening me about Little Augry's I will check it out. Always a pleasure.Maryanne :)

One can't pay enough tributes to lovely little augury so thank you for this. Her fabulous cardwork showcases her brilliance at picking the perfect image, her archiving skills and her eye for pretty detail. What a great collaboration, Diane.

Hello Saloniste - I'm disappointed to see my comments don't seem to get through, but when at first you don't succeed...
I really enjoyed this post and the way you revealed another creative facette to favorite blogger, PGT. It's wonderful to make new with these elements of the past - many which are already loaded with sentiment. There seems to be a generous impulse in everything she does!

Dear Friends-

I was greeted with all your wonderful messages this morning--plus more comments on Facebook. Little Augury's fan club.
I am so grateful for your generous and insightful comments--and for praise for PGT!
We have all enjoyed her bounteous posts and her thoughtful and kind messages.
PGT: The moment I received your cards (sent in response to my 'vanishing postcards' feature) I knew I had to write about them. They are exquisitely original and fearlessly romantic. Each is a work of art, and each speaks volumes.
Thank you all for this orchestral praise for Patricia Gaye Tapp and her wonderful creations. And hosannahs to PGT for the beauty she creates--long after midnight.
Cheers, DIANE

Diane, your words beautifully captured the elusive magic of little augury. I remember the first Parthenia card I received - it had a verse inside from Cecil Beaton's The Glass of Fashion (how did she divine my love for that book???) and was gloriously beautiful from the paper texture to the ribbon trim. This is one card I will always treasure. She is indeed a generous and gentle spirit with an eye for the wondrous. xoxo, EEE

Diane, I am honoured to have your admiration of my cards. When I sent them your way after your post on collecting old museum post cards and finding them harder to find-I just knew I wanted you to have them. Not thinking of them being a topic for your Style Saloniste- but i am honestly thrilled,Thank you and thank you to everyone for the comments about the cards and my blog. Gaye

Visiting Gaye's blog is like walking into a cabinet of curiosities...always a delight...and always intriguing. Thank you for introducing us to her art!

These cards are works of art. Simply beautiful.

2010-02-24T06:53:05.605-08:00

Lovely collaboration, indeed. LA and I "fuss on the playground" as she once described our conversations. While we differ on a few things, I have never once doubted her creativity infused with good old-fashioned Southerness kicked up more than than a notch or two. When I open her blog, it's always with a "what is she thinking about today?" In blog world, as in life, too many people sit on the fence, clad in neutrasl, chiming the same thing to each other agreeing their conversations are unique, creative or inspiring. LA is not a mugwamp. I say cheers and bring it on!

2010-02-24T06:37:35.859-08:00

Quite by accident, I found Ms. Tapp's wonderful cards at her Parthenia website and immediately fell in love with her marvelous images, exquisite design sensibility, and use of handsome materials. I ordered two cards from her and now treasure them. I doubt I could ever send them unless to someone very, very special. Many thanks for featuring Ms. Tapp and her work.

Thank you for this post, Style Saloniste, and some much-deserved recognition for this encouraging and talented lady! I've long been a fan of Little Augury...she was in fact one of my first readers. And your description of her blog is spot-on. Exquisite cards. Lauren
