Extraordinary Lady

Welcome Ana my new follower.
I have not posted a card in a bit since the Bugaboo DT has been on break, I have been busy with my family through the holidays and I am needing to have sinus surgery later this month since my right sinus is occluded ad I can't get rid of the infections that I have had for over 6 months so I am needing to have physicals and scans.  So 2019 will be better once I have surgery and can move on.
I wanted to start the new year with something different that I haven't done in awhile which is a vintage card.  The sentiment is from TLC, Create and the image is a free download, but I don't recall where I got it.  I distressed the edges of my papers, added some vintage buttons, feathers, flowers and lace.
With the wet snow that we had today...I wish that I had a hat this big so that my hair wouldn't have gotten so wet walking into work. lol.

Surgery isn't something to look forward to but hopefully you will feel much better afterwards, no fun getting infections all the time!

Beautiful vintage card, Lisa. You are so versatile!
With my hat on as DT of Cheerful Sketches I want to thank you for using our sketch.
By the way, can you read/understand Dutch or do you use the translator as you comment on my stories about e.g. Joop????
