Yay Samantha - it is so good to see you making cards again and what a gorgeous pair these are. I recognise the classy stitched tartan card which you were kind enough to send me and had pride of place on my dresser. How do you get your stitching to look so good? The robin card is just adorable and I bet your Dad loved it.
ReplyDeleteHappy new year and I wish you only good things in the year to come.
