Mementoes In Time

I thought I would share this piece I made for my precious Mum for her birthday. She turns a rather stunning 82 tomorrow, so I wanted to give her something that she could keep up on display for a while. T

Those of you who have followed this blog for a while will know that we don't just post about our templates and products, but about papercrafting in general.
