Elegance


I'm selling at a craft fair, my last for a few weeks, so I have scheduled a card a made a couple of weeks ago. This one sold the first time I took it to a fair. A lady bought it fora 92 year old as she said it would remind her of times gone by. Isn't that lovely and weren't people so elegantly dressed years ago. A bit different to today's hoodies and jeans. Mind you, wouldn't want to have to iron this.

The image has been edged in DI Antique Linen, the papers are from my need to use up pile, and I added some black flowers from a local shop with some red roses from USA, sentiment from Craftwork Cards.
