* Off to the Far East *


Morning all, think it will stay dry long enough for me to do a bit of weeding today the weeds seem to be going wild this year.
My card i have made is for this weeks challenge over at CD Sunday their theme is oriental...now that is definitely not my scene and i found this 1 very difficult as i had nothing on a cd for oriental but i did find these birds and blossom on the Jayne Shasky CD i'm hoping it will be allowed but if not oh well never mind lol.
