Where have i been.....

Well its Summer time in Aussie land and yes off we went to be beach bums for 2 weeks. We had a mixture of weather. We were flooded in at where we were staying as it poured for 3 days running. Oh well, it wasn't that bad because it gave me an opportunity to have some real lazy days plus get into some card making for the store. I love making them, but it makes a bit of mess so at the beach house was the place to get right into it. The last week the weather was better and we spent days on the beach and in on and around the water. My daughter had a great time with friends and i think we made some great new ones. Fun was had by all of us...so all in all a great break. So tomorrow its straight back into it....what this year brings who knows but The Vintage Rose will keep on keeping on. I will sign off now but i promise i wont leave it so long before i do my next post. This year promises to be an exciting one with a trip to France in August and buying some genuine french antiques for the store as well. Mid Feb i am off to the gift fair in Sydney and am quite looking forward to what may be available....Manda
