WE MADE IT THROUGH CYCLONE PAM



Hello Everyone...

We made it through the nasty cyclone Pam..wasn't as bad as predicted so all is good...now I have to put my back yard back together as I pulled everything down and tucked it all away...better to be safe than sorry.

I have a card to share today for another client and this one is for a 90year old friend of hers....



All in pink with a hint of green in the leaves...no coloured image just text..

MB butterfly...WOC flowers...a silk hand tied bow..and pearls..and beautiful freebie vintage rose papers..



A side opening card...[don't do those very often]..and decorated inside to match.



Laying down flat and showing the beautiful anglaise lace that I was given..

A box was also made for easy transportation, but not decorated..

Challenges to enter...

So there we go...and thanks ever so much for popping in and all the well wishes regarding the recent storm..

See you tomorrow..

luv CHRISSYxx
