Climb every mountain

 Hi all,
The sound of music had it's last night on Saturday, where we had a standing ovation!  The main characters were all fantastic and did so well to be so energetic for 8 performances.  I now have a bit of a sore throat, so I won't be doing too much talking for a while, although I have two day's supply teaching today and tomorrow and might need my voice for that.
Over at Incy Wincy this week, we are sponsored by:
 and
Our theme is vintage.  Usually, when I do vintage, it's in browns, so I decided to get away from this and use pink instead.  The image is a stamp by Wild Rose Studio called In the Meadow, and it is sold in the Care2Stamp shop.  I have distressed the edges of the paper with Victorian Velvet.  The postcard was given to me ages ago.  I bought some frames a while ago and didn't realise they were so small and couldn't think what to do with them.  I thought I could ink them and use it to frame the sentiment.  The inked trim is from an old skirt I had that was too tatty to go to a charity shop.  
See you tomorrow.
