Happy Boxing Day Friends,

I hope you all had a fabulous Christmas, I know some of you live in the colder parts of the world, but here in Australia it was very hot, I would love a White Christmas, maybe one day.

Happy Sunday Lovelies,

I hope you are all having a fabulous weekend. I made this last week to say farewell to the gorgeous Kellie Winnell at Tickled Pink Stamps and forgot to post it here, oops.

Anyways, I have used the adorable Farewell Tilda from the Bon Voyage Collection.

Coloured with Copics, Pattern Paper is Annalee Collection from Prima.

Thank you so much for taking the time to visit, I hope to have more soon, but am in the process of making my DT goodies for the next Magnolia Ink Magazine.
