Paper Flowers |
Dear friends if you have already seen this window card do forgive me as I had to repost this for having stupidly deleted the earlier published post! Dont ask me how I did it ...maybe the blogging gods [or maybe for us crafty blogs its goddesses] wanted to see me pull my hair ,stamp my feet, curse myself and generally act like a loony lady !!
And I think only a crafty blogger can understand the true enormity of it...lost challenge links ,lost comments..booo hooo!!

Deleting a popular post in which so many blogger friends wrote such sweet comments is one of the most foolish things I have done in my 4 years of blogging !!
