This has been a very up and down month for me what with health issues,
then my darling little 6 month old Great grand daughter
having to have open heart surgery to close 2 holes in her heart.
Thankfully she has recovered well it is mum and dad
who have taken longer to bounce back.
I am rejoicing too with the safe arrival of another beautiful
Great grand daughter that I have yet to meet as she lives in Melbourne.
Onto my DT card for August
Come join us with your makes we love seeing them
and the prize this month is a beauty.
I have included 2 this month as they are the same design
On the first one I used SB hemstitched borders using the plain rectangle to
cut the patterned paper.
On the second I used SB A2 Fancy weave. I cut 2 and layered them
to give them more stability.
The patterned paper I have had for 4 years and never cut into it before
I just used to take it out look at it and not wanted to cut into it.
Hopefully as my energy levels improve I will be able to start
hopping around to visit you all again and get a few more cards up
and posted.

ReplyDeleteSorry its taken me a while to visit. Sorry to hear that you have not been well and about the little one. Here's to a speedy recovery for you both.
Congratulations too on the new arrival.
Love the cards. The paper is very pretty indeed and I can see why you would want to just stroke it lol!!!
You take care now.
