Planting some love

Isn’t this weather just the dizzy limit!!  It has been so cold up here in the frozen North that we had the heating on again yesterday.  What’s this all about??  Still bad weather means that I could spend the afternoon in my craft room, and I had a good old play and eventually got round to inking up this little Belles ‘n Whistles cutie – the links are at the bottom of the post.

    Great card Bev. Love everything about it, especially the ribbon. Typical British Bank Holiday weather! We are in Oxfordshire and lit the woodburner this morning. I put up with it yesterday but enough is enough - you should be warm in your own home!!!!!
