Yes I know, I can't believe it either!!
I'm back for a while, fed up with the decorating so having a few weeks off! YIPPEE!
Also had my brother and his wife with 3 children under 7 so been quite busy one way and another.
Just a very simple card to share with you this evening a bit of hessian which I begged of my my friend Fleur of a
"passion for craft" (check her out if you haven't already) some October afternoon papers and a cuttlebug quilled flower which are so easy to do, I just love making them. I know they are a little pricey, but you can make big flowers small flowers even tiny teeny flowers, I have another project on the go with lots of flowers and will show you later next week.
I know you wont hold your breath!!
