My card below is for a Special Lady - My Daughter.
I am SO EXCITED that in a few months I will get to
celebrate 2 very special occasions.
My granddaughter is getting married and my younger daughter
is flying over from Perth
(which is over the other side of Australia from where I live)
She is the baby one on my Baby Blog Hop post.
It just so happens we will be able to celebrate her birthday
while she is here so I am a pretty Happy Lady.
It will be a memorable get together as we are flying north
to Cairns for this Special Time.

And on a sadder note
This is my last post for Crafting with Dragonflies.
For the present I need to cut back a little on my Crafting time.
I would like to say the biggest Thank You to Hilde
who had faith in my work and invited me
to be part of her Design Team when this blog started.
Some of the Challenges we shared over the last 10 months
certainly took me out of my comfort zone
several times but loved the fact that I got to
try out new ideas.
Next I would like to say Thank You to my
Fellow Design Team Friends for all the
help and encouragement we shared.
It has been an amazing journey.
I am just cutting back on some commitments for now
and will still be sharing my work when time permits.
So stay tuned
Thank you so much for stopping by..

We will certainly miss you Ina - your encouragement and thoughtfulness are greatly appreciated. I will now confess that I stole the dimensional layer on my pitcher from you! Yours just looked so beautiful I had to try it - a lovely touch! The whole card is super too - hope your family get-together and wedding go well, and Easter is a super time for you, and that DH's hip is doing what it should!
Big Dragonfly hugs and you will be missed, it's been great having you on the Team, always welcome back when you have more time again...enjoy your trip, blessings Hilde
