Popping through and having a good ol cach up on your blog...have been busy with selling the house etc.

Finally have a bit of a break for now till I have to start packing in 2 months...so lots of time now to create again and visit.

Just had to pop in and say these are gorgeous cards.

Wow ... very nice.. I think the red on the first card kinda overpowers the sentiment ... (could just be the photo) but the 2nd one is outstanding! Thanks for sharing this with us at Through The Craft Room Door. Please come play along with us again! (Hugs) Cara
