Christmas Trees!

Hello Everyone, 
I hope you are all having a good week. 
When I went the The Great Create at Harrogate last Friday I met the lovely Julie Hickey from Craftwork Cards. She had lots of origami Christmas Trees on display and I told her how my Emma had made lots of these trees and they are hidden around her room. When I try to put her clothes away...Christmas trees fall out of the wardrobe! 
Anyway she asked me to e-mail her a photo which I did and she has just shown it live on Create and Craft TV.....!! Well you should have seen Emma's face! It really has made her day.
Thank you very much Julie.


Bye for now
