Ranunculus Romance Meets Timeless Tulips

    Thank you for joining me today!

Happy Birthday Carole

When I saw this set in the mini catalogue I just loved it and had to have it, but then couldn't decide what to do with it. So I looked on Pinterest for inspiration and liked different things from different cards. So put the things I liked together and here we are. I'm still trying to use up my old stash (I've got too much and it will never happen) but there are alternatives for the products no longer available in the current catalogue. 

Happy Crafting folks
