Happy New Year!

Happy New Years Eve!

I thought I would share my New Year card a day early as I am back on Hochanda tomorrow for the Couture Creations Big Save ( shows start at 8pm) Therefore tomorrow I will be showing some f the projects and cards I will be demoing.

I've made this card especially for all of my Blog family using some of my favourite Dies from Sue Wilson this
year.

I used the Lattice Background, Geneva from the Swiss Collection, the Exquisite Poppies, Trailing Ivy, stitched flags, olive branch and the cornflowers.  A lot of dies I know and air too many to be a favourite but hey Christmas and New Year are well known for excess!


I hope that everyone reading has a peaceful and prosperous 2017!

    I love this card it's really my kind of card. Thanks for sharing.

    I for one will not be sorry to see the back of 2016. I've lost so many friends and family this year and some, including my nephew were quite young. I can't ever remember such a bad year before and welcome 2017.

    Happy New Year to all. May it be a good one for everybody.

    Happy crafting.
