I have decided instead to share with you the creation of a friend of mine. She wanted to give me something I could keep after my wedding. She knows I have a respect for people who create lovely cards and so tried her hand and the card arts. I have to say it is one of the most thoughtful things I was lucky enough to receive from the wedding - simply because she put so much thought into the colour schemes and themes. So here is my card, one that I am going to frame and put somewhere where everyone can see it. As I am sure you will all agree, she put a lot of effort and handwork into this.
Whilst I can dream of being able to create something so lovely, I am going to keep this post short and head over to 1st Unique Gifts where I can see what other lovely people have been doing this week!
I will be back to later document my Christmas decoration domination ;) But that's because I just LOVE Christmas!!!
That is so unusual. Your friend should be justly proud of herself. Tell her well done.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful and very different card. I can tell she had you in mind when she made it!
ReplyDeleteHope you're not made redundant (but I have to tell you redundancy was the best thing to happen to me - difficult at the time but led to good things!) x
I love the different colours she has used on her card, good inspiration for me! x
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear that you have the threat of redundancy looming but see it as a new beginning rather than an ending...
ReplyDeleteLovely card - your friend should be very proud and I am not surprised you were so touched by it.
Looking forward to seeing your Christmas decorations - as you know, I am already in full swing!!

ReplyDeleteI love the colours of the card and the butterfly. A great keepsake.
ReplyDeleteI really hope the job situation turns out for the best but like Wendy and Ali said, it may be a new beginning.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely reminder of your wedding, your friend should get into the card making business. The roses are gorgeous.
