Elzybells

Here's a card made with one of my latest and final Elzybells purchase.  Sadly Elzybells' website closed yesterday.  It's sad to think that Elizabeth's gorgeous designs won't be available to buy anymore.

O ATC

Another month and another ATC in the Alphabet Swap.  Struggled to find an O theme.  Decided on Ocean - well, it kind of fits my pictures! 

I've managed to make a new post each day during September.  Tomorrow sees a new month and I hope to continue my new found posting thirst, but who knows......
