I worked in the Middle East for 15 years on three separate contracts. Specifically in Saudi Arabia from 1986 to 1999, I was in Riyadh through the Gulf War and working at the military hospital. I was a civilian employed by the Armed Forces Hospital. We didn't see any fighting or injuries in Riyadh but we did experience the scud missiles and the influx of British and American Forces who became our friends. This makes Remembrance Day poignant for me personally. So to mark this day here is a simple card to say it all to those that have served and are serving.
Welcome to the UKS Spring BlogHop! I hope you are all enjoying some lovely spring weather. You may have come to me from JimJams blog and her stunning mini book. If you lose your way, or have dropped in on me directly and want to follow the hop, you can see the full list with all the links here . ETA Remember to comment on each blog and then go back to UKS and comment there to be in with a chance of winning a £25 voucher, I am offering a vine for commetners on this blog. It is important that you include your UKScrappers name in your comment. I have created a page with some handmade flowers, I was inspired by the beautiful Prima branches, as usual I looked at them and thought I bet I could make those. This was my first attempt and I'm pretty pleased with myself. Also on the layout you should spot a lovely voile flower, some tiny pearl flowers and a couple of blossoms made from scallop circle punches. Although the bought flowersand vines are beautiful if you need to use
