Good friends, good food, good wine - hic hic

So we spent the weekend with our gorgeous pals Georgina and Joanne. I met them both at the 2nd craft retreat I ever went to and felt so comfortable with them. Georgina is a sweet and gorgeous lady inside and out - truely i could not find one thing wrong with her at all. her blog is here and is called my secret place - hence this little hangy thing
Here is a closer look. this lovely whiff of joy image was sent to me last year by the equally gorgeous horners corner - Thanks so much Clare it was perfect for this project x

and now onto Joannes - a completely different look for a very glamorous lady - this stampsmith stamps screams star to me and thats exactly what Jo is an absolute star!

A bit closer - i even used my precious graphic 45 papers and now retied BM papers too - it just seemed to work.


The dear little lock and key brads were bought at the stamp man and are a perfect addition to a project like this.
The hangers are wooden plaques just covered in paper and decorated - they were such fun I have made another but that will have to wait to be seen so dont tell just yet!
Jo's daughter Ashlee was with us most of the weekend - great to get to know a much loved and talked about young lady. She has set up her own blog too which you can find here.
She embraced Journalling - our craft focus -and was brilliant at it - hope she shares her gorgeous pages soon too!
