Artistically Timeworn

 

Today is my last hop with:

The theme is:    Thank You

I have had 3 fantastic years of friendship and learning with this wonderful program Kylie & Bruno Bertucci have designed. Thank you both, so much! You are such special people and I have been so lucky to be able to learn from two of the best! Don't let anyone else tell you otherwise - you guys give from the heart and it is really appreciated!

I think it's time for me to 'leave the nest'! My aim has been to increase my knowledge so I could be a better team leader and demonstrator. I know I can go back and check out any of the online lessons and increase my knowledge further (or refresh anything I have forgotten). This makes me feel like I have a really secure safety net and increases my confidence to 'go it alone'! I know I will really miss being part of the group but I'm sure I will continue to be grateful for having joined!

Today's card is a fun fold I saw Beth McCulloch make on YouTube - https://youtu.be/aJnpVodNtFY

It's a slightly different 'Z' fold and you need to make sure your DSP is kept in the original order of cutting (I numbered mine on the back as I cut them). Also make sure you keep the top at the top! (Go on, ask me how I know?)!!
