Beginning something new

 Good morning all.  It's my turn to pick the challenge for this fortnight over at Cardz4galz.  I have chosen the theme of 'New Beginnings'.  This could be a new baby, a new job or, as I have chosen for my card, newly married life together.

As some of you will know, I'm on a stash busting mission at the moment.  It's an endless and thankless task.  I have found so many things I'd forgotten about and some stuff I didn't know I had.  When one of my friends moved house she game me boxes of her old craft stuff.  In amongst it was a folder full of decoupage sheets and toppers.  I tend to do more stamping nowadays so they had lain in the box unlooked at.  I'm glad I went through the folder though as it gave me a chance to used some old wedding backing papers that I just couldn't envision using.  It turned out that they went pretty well together.

I was so pleased with how this looked I did two more for my Church and Charity boxes.  So, that's one sheet and three pieces of paper gone from my stash.  Told you - it's an endless task.

I want to say thank you to Pauline Bird from Crafting with Cotnob.  She does such beautiful things with toppers and when I can't see how something will work I often go to her blog for inspiration.  This was one of those cards.  Thanks Pauline.  Keep up the good work.

OK, let's see your New Beginnings please - otherwise I will have nothing to comment on.

Thanks for reading.
