That card is just lovely. The AJ page too, and your DDs centrepiece is lovely. Our table tends to be too small and full of food for anythig that grand but it really does make it look so very festive.


Happy First WOYWW of 2015!

'May we find hope, peace, joy, prosperity and above all love, so that we may enjoy a zeal for life in each other's company.' i think even more so after what happened yesterday in France. As always your work is wonderful and your daughter's 'centrepiece' is just beautiful. Best Wishes for 2015 Anne x #23
