Happy Birthday Brenda

Hi everyone 

Anyone who follows my blog regularly will know that my favourite stash item is all my lush ribbon. Today is the birthday of the lovely lady who supplies all my lace, ribbon, pearls and buckles, Brenda. I knew I had to make something using lots of products from Brenda as a gift for her birthday. I decided on a door hanger that Brenda could hang on her lace & ribbon room.
