Three Happy Anniversary Cards







Hi - Sorry I haven't been around lately, partly I have been very busy and partly I have been a bit poorly.



These following three cards have all been made using the "Joanna Sheen"CD-Rom "Victorian Romance". Both the toppers and backing papers are from the same CD. The sentiments have been typed on the computer. The flower sprays used are also off of the Joanna Sheen website.






Thank you for taking the time to look.
