Show and Tell Friday

It's Show and Tell Friday again! This week I'd like to tell you about my DH's grandmother, who kept scrapbooks and in those scrapbooks were some real gems of Victorian/Edwardian cards. This was the most intricate and exquisite card of all, so I rescued it and framed. It hangs in the hall way in our house which is true to the period of the card.

  1. It must have been fate that you met Brian because his grandmother was a crafter and made exquisite cards and so do you. :)

  2. She didn't make it Tracey, she just collected them and stuck them in a scrapbook! But thanks for the kind comment.
