Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge - New Beginnings
Yesterday my son and his wife became homeowners!
He picked up the keys from the estate agents and now begins the task of getting all the necessary work done in the house before they can move in. New boiler, new kitchen, new bathroom, to say nothing of the decorating to be done and carpets to be laid.What fun! rather them than me!
Until last year it seemed as though he'd spent his entire life as a student. He in fact has 3 degrees and the thought of living in student accomodation for all that time isn't my idea of fun.
Anyway he's all grown up now (32) and living in the real world.
I wish them both every happiness in their new home.
This card is more the style that I prefer... minimalist, rather than all the flowery stuff, but I guess there's place for both.

Hi Chrissie, I am in agreement with you about Minimal, I have never been brave enough to use flowers on any of my cards yet, as I am a very conservative kind of person, I like plain.. Anyway good luck to your Son and his Wife, I am sure they will have much happiness creating their own wee haven. Love Avril xx
ReplyDeleteOnce again and excellent card Chrissie. I love the fact there is nothing to take the eyes away from the main image :o)
