This morning I became a granny again, another beautiful girl! Her name is Arielle Isla, sister to Lucia. Both mum and baby are doing well.
Alright, now to the normal business of the day:

ReplyDeleteHave just popped over to see your pocket card Astrid, it is beautiful. I love your two tags especially the watercolour effect complimented by the butterfly. The white stamping over the stencilling on the kraft looks stunning. Mo x

ReplyDeleteHi Astrid. First up, huge congratulations on becoming a Grandma again. What lovely news, you must be over the moon. Family is so precious!! I did actually comment here before but it doesn't seem to have gone through. Having a lot of trouble with Blogger lately and it is driving me up the wall. So if you end up with two comments, I haven't really gone whacko, it's just Blogger playing games. Also, the canvases you have so generously donated are absolutely gorgeous. I take my hat off to you and the other Artists for your generosity. You all make this world a better place. Thank you. ox
ReplyDeleteoh wow .. great art for callico craft-

Astrid, the pieces you donated for the auction are lovely and have already gotten such a huge response! It is a great pleasure to be involved in such a worthy cause with such wonderful like minded artists! ")
ReplyDeleteHuge congratulations Astrid - what wonderful news. Welcome little Arielle (love the name). Maybe a trip to Australia again if my memory serves me correctly?
