βA Little Taleββ¦
Elisbeth had been a witch since birth. She was born into a family that consisted of a long line of powerful, highly regarded, and knowledgeable witches. So, it was only natural for her to be raised as what she was, a witch. And, fortunately for her, she was born at a time when witches, the occult, and the like was very popular...the Victorian Era,
Her childhood, during this era was magical; not only in what she was taught and could do, but by wonder, enchantment, and the contact she had with nature, the elements, elementals, and animals. Her days were spent, in great part, simply wandering in the woods and forests, playing with elementals, and studying the Heavens and the moon phases.
Her favorite moon phase was the full moon. For with the full moon came the rituals, but, best of all, the moon was huge and Elisbeth felt she could talk directly to the Goddess. She would bend her little head back as far as it would go, look up at the big round orb with eyes wide and mouth slightly opened in awe, and mentally send her messages to the Goddess. And, she knew for certain that the Goddess heard her and answered her. She heard the Goddessβ voice clearly in her head.
β¦During her full moon discussions with the Goddess, the Goddess empowered little Elisbeth with even greater knowledge, wisdom, and imparted long held secrets. The Goddess adored the childβ¦. So, the Goddess enhanced Elisbethβs abilities, powers, psychic vision, and gifts even more andβ¦[she] grew and became one of the wisest, most knowledgeable, and powerful witches among all witches who ever lived.
Her communications with the Goddess, as well as the time period in which she was born made Elisbeth love the Victorian Era and never wanted to see it end. Sadly, though, one night, in her scrying bowl, she saw the future and did not like what she saw. All the hussle and bustle, the wars, the hate, the loss of manners and etiquette, lack of people caring for one another, and most of all, the disregard, which would be even greater than that in the Victorian Era, for animals and nature...
So, she put a spell on herself. She made it so that, to her, it would always be the Victorian Era. She saw no planes, iPods, TVs, cell phones and the like. She continued to wander in the woods and forests with no fear of being harmed and practiced her craft, helping others, nature, and animals. She dressed and conducted herself like a grand Victorian lady, following the traditions and customs she was taught during that time.
People saw her as eccentric or a bit batty, but she did not care. She was happy and content. She spent every full moon outside with her head bent way back, eyes wide, and her mouth slightly opened. She would talk to the Goddess and the Goddess would answer her.
She was happy. βLifeβ, she thought, βis what you make it. The power is in each of us to create the life we want and to choose to be happy or sad.β

Here she isβ¦. My adorable little Missy.
I bought Missy from βthecraggymoorβ β¦from their website. They are here on Flickr too. Their work is awesome.
Missy is sewn perfectly and her outfit with the buttons is precious. She is high quality and highly detailed.
On the back of her little hat she sports dangling crystals. I can see how much care, skill, and attention to perfection went into making her.
I am in love with all thecraggymoor creations, but Missy, ahhh, my Missy, is the best.
I will be listing (posting?) more photos of her. But, first I have to introduce her to Ginger Kitty (EEK!), Beau and the rest of the gang.
Gulp! Wish me luck.
You know, I bet Missy can hear all the way to China with those beautiful mouse ears. Ha!
I rearranged the pieces on the magnet board on my desk. I really love adding bits and bobs from wonderful artists who either sell their work through etsy or swap them through the 'Bot. It inspires me a lot seeing all this wonderful colorful goodness :)
