No Image Card

Good Afternoon All
I have, I think, done what I call, a messy card.
I love this type of card when I see them on other blogs but I find it quite hard as I like everything symetrical, if I but a gem on one corner, I have to put one on the other corner to balance it all out.  The little fairy charm is from our local China shop (there will be similar in my candy).  Homemade quilled flowers, crochet flower and bead pin.  The lace paper border has been in my stash forever.  Butterflies are Marianne and the leaves are Crealies.
What a miserable day here today, I came downstairs this morning to see this outside our kitchen window ------------




It had been raining through the night and it must have brought half the desert with it, everything was covered and wet and yukky.  So once I had had brekky I get my mop bucket and go outside to clear it up.  The, after lunch it flippin' well did it again, not quite as bad, but bad enough.  Hope it is nice wherever you are.

    Beautiful colours and texture.
