And, as you've probably worked out, this is a scheduled post! I don't have any Internet now - it was all packed up on Wednesday. But I've a few scheduled posts going through to next week when I arrive in the US.
So first up is a thank you card that I made for one of my Craft Class friends, Doreen. She's a wonderful lady and she made my lovely going away cards - which is now packed and you'll see when it arrives! I forgot to take a photo.
In the box of goodies that I grabbed off my craft desk, was this pretty little flower (which is one designed by Mel over at Mel Stampz) which I'd previously cut out with my Spellbinder dies. I coloured the flowers with my Aquarell pencils. I stamped the daisy trellis in the background picking up the orange of the stamens. I attached a simple thank you sentiment and a pretty butterfly, previously coloured with Promarkers, also in the box!

I guess we will hear from you "live" when you get to the US. I really hope you keep us non-US followers up to date on all that you see, do, and generally how you find life in a new country. It would be so interesting to hear your thoughts.
Love the trellis in orange & how it makes the flower & butterfly really come to life. Those type of removal men are brilliant - trouble is I have a husband to pacify & keep out of their way as well - he's apt to hoover the room as soon as they're out of it & woe betide me if I step on the carpet after he's done! Of course I can see the funny side of it now but midst move............ it's another story.
Hope you're all done & have some rest by the time you read this.

A very pretty card Deborah, good luck with the move, can't wait to see your pics when you get there!
Isn't it funny how we retain some craft stuff, while other items we can store away for a time and not even miss them...but not our crafty items! You did a fabulous job with this project, and I, like everyone else, hope the moves goes well and that your stress level remains low! =)
Hi Deborah
