My name is Debra aka "Dahlila." I'm a fellow Etsian. My vintage shop is DahlilaFound. I'll be taking over for Justine on the Daily Dose as she is ubber busy with her new job. I'm sure she will be lurking about though so let's all wish her the very best!
So, today I'm all about ephemera, paper, art, scrapbooking supplies. I found this fabulous vintage find over at AnnDouglas: Child Life Magazine, 1945. The cover alone is worthy of framing; instant vintage art for your stylish abode.

Thanks so much for featuring this issue of Child Life, Dahlila. I love the cover, too.
