Gift Packaging for hand-made soap – how to video……..
My sweet friend Rose has been making soap and I was lucky enough to be given one of the first bars.

First cards from my new space…….

I like to thank each and every one of them for their enthusiasm and support by making a card. Sometimes it is a full card, sometimes an 3×3 or sometimes a ‘business’ card size. Whatever I do it is always with heartfelt appreciation. Continue reading
