Welcome back to my corner of the world

I have been a crafter all my life, my Dad taught me to knit, my grandmother taught me to crotchet, my Mum taught me embroidery and I took myself off to classes to learn to make bobbin lace.

Today I am pairing 2 of the Sale-a-bation items onto one card. The Home to Roost stamp set has proven to be a very popular choice, due mainly I think to that very handsome rooster stamp.
