Karelyn to Lynda

This swap piece is metal! I suspect a tad of recycling going on there - am I right, Karelyn? Embossed background, with a pearl heart button and two heart pins, and the little square with the watch faces on lifts up: there's a picture of Edwardian ladies with 'Time for Tea' on it (with waists that small, they never had cake with theirs!). Love the little scissors charm.

Thankyou so much, Karelyn, and thankyou for organising this swap.

Could be an aluminium foil container, possibly?

Lovely. Is it made like my frame with the plumbers tape?

Interesting, like the heart button.

Love the embossing

Yes Jo, it's the plumbers tape, it's sort of 'designed' to stand up so there are creases/folds at each end. A beer can would have the same effect I suppose. Pity I didn't think of that.
