A Good Egg
I botched the card that the lovely Helen had designed whilst at the Shoe Box Swap, so I came home and duplicated it but accidentally smudged the top of this card with Black Stazon ink. So I made another one (shown in a previous post) with Helen’s original design. However, I decided not to let […]

The lid was made deeper so that a strip of Always Artichoke could be added around the middle and some Kraft ribbon […]

Please note that the order of […]
