Hi  everybody and a very warm welcome to my new followers - thank you for adding your name to my little blog.  I do appreciate that so many take the time to look in and leave a comment.  I can now show this card as my friend has now received it.  I made this for my friend Rita and her husband Bill who last week celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary.  Rita herself is a very talented card maker so no pressure there!!

                                   

The card is cut with spellbinder dies and the heart is the memory box La Rue heart.  My usual ribbon and some flowers which were a gift from my friend Jacqui - thank you Jacqui.

    I'm still plodding on reading the book, and hope to finish it by the end of the month. I love the characters but not Guy loL.
