This is my first entry into a Caardvarks
Challenge. It's entitled 'From Your Closet'. Looking at this card it seems that it should have been called 'From my Grandmother's closet'... however I do have a pair of lace-up boots similar to these which come out each Christmastime when I go to a Victorian Farm to sing Carols with a group of my friends at the annual Christmas Market. We dress in appropriate clothing for the period and then return to my house to enjoy mulled wine and lunch. It will be here before we know it!
The second challenge is the sketch from Sketch Saturday #11
Laura Ashley Paper, Prima Flower, See Ds image
I enjoyed doing this one.
TFL & do please leave your opinion!
Oh WOW Chrissie! what a stunning card, looks very tactile too with the lace and the embossing. It's lovely.
ReplyDeleteI bet its so much fun carol singing with all your friends, and yes, you're right, will be here before we know it! I said on another blog this morning that I must start making my christmas cards!
