A bit of altering

Been busy busy busy with helping out one of the animal charities I support online, and also listing lots of things on their auction to raise funds for the animals in their care. I always try to list plenty of variety so there is something for everyone, and just in case there were people who, like me, love vintage and shabby chic, I altered a large notebook -







Nothing too fancy or over the top, but isn't the image of the little girl with the big dog so adorable?

Mail from the other side of the world

When the door bell rings and the postman hands me an envelope from Australia, my heart always beats faster, because I know it can only be from my darling friend Suzy. 

It is hard not to tear it open right there on the doorstep, lol, but I controlled myself. This is what my dear friend sent me this time -




I love Suzy's work so much, just look at this beautiful card she sent me. The details are amazing, the many layers -


The images are always so beautiful, soft and serene

and even the inside of her cards are always embellished

And when it comes to ornaments, I am just bowled over. These two beautiful ornaments for my Christmas tree also arrived in the envelope -




Thank you so much, Suzy, you know how much these beauties will be treasured.
