Two Years

It is two years to the day since I lost my beloved Peter. I was thinking last night about the last time I saw him, and how much I wish I had known it was going to be the last time, how much I wish I had said and how much I wish I had been by his side. His dear mum, bless her, does not have to mark this date as she passed away recently and my heart's wish is that she is now with Peter and they are a comfort to each other. God bless you Betty.

Two years. It is no time at all and yet it is the longest time of all.

A caterpillar does not cease to be when it becomes a butterfly, and Peter, I know, has not ceased to be.

God bless Pete. L.L.L.L.D.W. xxx

More Christmas Cards

Getting a bit scarily close to the big day now and still got loads to do - well haven't we all! anyway, here are my latest cards. Hope you like them.

This first photo has not come out very clearly but the verse in the suspended oval says "Peace on Earth will come to stay when we live Christmas every day"

I just love this vintage looking angel - she is adorable don't you think?


















The background to this image is chalked and embossed - first time I have used chalks.












I scanned this next one, so you can't really tell but there are several layers of decoupage on all the images.


















Next are three Dufex decoupaged cards. I love these images - they have a rich fairytale quality about them.

















































And to finish, something a little more modern.
