Hello Dear friends and followers. Sorry I have been a really bad blogger this week, and I'm not going to be around for the next 2 weeks either, although I will be able to answer posts etc. Hope this beautiful weather lasts till we get back. We bought a Scooter for Andrew today, so now I shall have company on my walks, and go out for a meal to some of the lovely pubs and hotels around the place. He had a good trial and a run around and by the looks of it, I'll be the one that will need to be running to keep up with him. Joking aside, he will at least get out and about as he really is housebound most of the time.
Today's make is a box I made a while ago and now I really have filled it with hand made flowers. The papers are from Craftwork Cards 8 X 8 Correspondence Pad. I used pearls and flowers from my stash and the ribbon was bought some years ago. Will keep in touch while I'm away. So Take Care All of You. Hugs Rita xxx

Fabulous box Rita - and the content will be just as gorgeous! I'm sure the scooter will make such a difference fro Andrew. My brother in law bought one following his stroke last September and it made such a difference. He was able to go out with Jeanie when she walked the dog etc. They eally are a great invention!

Wow! Oh! Wow! I just LOVE your wonderful box.
The Roses on top are brilliant, what a great gift and to be filled with Roses what a bonus.
Have a wonderful time away, it will be so much better now Andrew has his scooter.
Much more fun being out together. Take it easy and don't be having "races" to see if Andrew trying to keep up with your walking speed or you trying to catch up with Andre!!!

This is a lovely box Rita such delicate colours and gorgeous papers, lace and flowers. Hope you are having a lovely time keeping up with Andrew's scooter! Mo x
As usual, so very beautiful. You must have a real stash of vintage lace, this is lovely. Your handmade flowers are always perfection, and what a wonderful way to store them. Have fun whatever you are doing, and so happy to hear that now you can have your DH with you as you do your day-to-day errands. TFS & Hugs
Oh, Rita, what a beautiful box... perfect vintage romance with such lovely detailing in the lace and those gorgeous papers.

Hi Rita, thanks for your recent visit & sweet comment. Glad you are safely home again, and hope you're getting rested from your trip. Just saw that sweet cuddly bear over at Redanne's. It's a cutie, and I told her if I had it, he would be on my pillow sleeping with me every night. He looks _sooo_ soft! Take care. Hugs
