Wow. Another post so close to my last one. More to the point, another card, so close to my last one. I'm feeling extremely proud of myself for sticking to my "new year promise" of finding more time to craft!!! Guess what? I actually sewed on my machine. Now if you knew me, you would know that sewing is like an extreme sport to me. I'd rather go and jump out of an aeroplane. I never learnt to set up a sewing machine. When all the kids in my class was sewing, I was sat at the back of the classroom, knitting. (My Mum and Dad owned a wool store). I was always in disgrace with my teacher because I flatly refused to learn to sew. So at 44 years old, this was no easy task for me. Anyway, apart from the sewing, nothing new on this card. Thanks for coming to take a look. Have a great day.
