  5. Love the black and white penny farthing card and the ladies gramaphone one - that's a great idea to have the 'music' coming out like that!!

  6. Thank you Richelle. I don't have anything with music in it so I had to compromise and made it a bit more girly with the flowers and the hearts.

    1. Thanks Narelle. Me too. So sad when they go. Apart from the carryovers from the 2014-15 catty there is nothing in this line in the new catty. I'll just have to use the ones I have already.
      ;o ) Hee Hee!

    1. Thank You Leonie. I love the old world designs. I don't play with them often enough though. When the new stamps arrive I tend to use them more and forget about the older ones I have, all 200+ of them. Can't bear to part with any. Must try to work through them all. Need to get a ROUND TOIT ! Happy Stampin'
