A Flower Fairy card arrived at its destination and the winner is...

I made this Flower Fairy card some time ago for Karen D., a sea glass friend in the States who loves Flower Fairies like I do. I used printed papers with Flower Fairies that my friend Cathy from England had sent me a long long time ago.
And that's the end result. Karen received the card so I can show you now.

It has a 3-D effect.

 As you have noticed only three people commented on my giveaway so I only chose among those three and the winner is ....Pesky Cat Designs! Congratulations!
Please contact me with your address details so that I can post your ornament!Thank you all three for taking part!

To blog or to keep a diary?


I have always kept a diary, ever since I was a kid. It kept me organised so that I don't forget things to do or things I had done. Unfortunately I threw away most of my childhood and teenage diaries. Then I decided to keep a diary and having seen what Geninne Zlatkis does in her diaries I decided to add little colourful paintings or stickers and photos. It looked much better I admit but after a couple of months I couldn't do it any more. I wanted to start a blog ever since I found the resurrection fern blog and started following it and reading it every day.It inspired me. My dear man gave me a lovely diary as a New Year's Eve present this year. It is one with the flower fairies by Cicely Mary Barker. I love this artist. I have her complete anthology of her flower fairies and poems. I also have an address book sent to me by my dear friend Cathy in England. It is so nice to see all the details of the flowers and the fairies all in one. So what should I do now? Keep a beautiful diary handwritten and adorned by so many beautiful little flower fairies? Or blog which has so much potential in itself? Or do both?
