And yet again
the hand of fate has struck.
Part of me is say thank goodness this month is finally over,
as most of it has been so hard and upsetting.
We unfortunately have had another death in the family,
my Partners father,
who passed away yesterday morning.
Hence this posting being a day late,
but I am sure that you will all understand.
So this week's card is asking for some peace,serenity
and a new start if at all possible.
Also I loved the look of the Sketch over at Ike's World.
Chinese Dragon Digi Stamp
