Hi to everyone, I hope that from watching the news that you and your families are safe from both the flooding in Australia, and also the snow in the Northern Hemisphere....... very disturbing to see.
and has a little bird in a gilded cage on an oval Christine Rea stamp, which has had a gold metallic centre and gold filligree edging added to it. The borders are paper lace, and EF Swiss Dots and Herringbone, embellished with little brown heart brads, wooden buttons and a gold butterfly. Shaded corners with gold filligree are added with brown pearls and a flower with pearl centre. The cage has been Kindy Glitzed, as has the centre of the flower. Wanted to keep it subtle with greens and golds.
Thank you for taking the time to look and commenting on my cards, always great to see who has been for a visit.
