    A really stunning card Jacqueline and I just love the beautiful flowers. The clean and simple design really shows them off.
    Tell your hubby that you're as old as you feel (I'm assuming you mean the half century) and that it's the new 30!

    This is really pretty - wouldn't look good with coffee cup stains like the sketch would it??

    Jacqueline this is so perfect! I love the colours, the placement of the flowers, your sprinkling of gems... everything is gorgeous! I never really took to Dr Who although I'd obviously have watched David Tennant in anything! Vicky x

    Very pretty card Jacqueline! My real name is Jacqueline too! How did you manage to get everyone to call you Jacqueline and not have them shorten it to Jackie? Some of my family even have the nerve to call me Jack! ;) So glad you played along with us at RetroSketches!

So I got to work straight away and now my desk looks like this There is a hidiously green magnetic board complete with snail magnets that I won in a raffle - just right for altering, some wooden drawer knobs onto which I will attach some foam to use with my disress inks and my chipboard albums from last week that I didn't get round to doing. Also found when clearing from one room to another was my old jewelery display board which will soon be converted to a card display board and an old set of corner shelves. All they needed was a quick flick of a J-Cloth and a spray of Flash (oops advertising - other cleaning products are avaliable) and they now stand proudly in my craft room displaying my most recent cr

 I have decided to try and get on top of my Christmas cards early this year and so far it’s going well!!!
