But the ones you made are really gorgeous! If the flies are still driving you crazy, try buying or making a cowboy type hat with strings and corks at the end of them so when you swing your head, they swing too and keep the flies away, like the Aussies in the outback! Have a great day.

I know the word but I just can't think of it and then another word, always unrelated, will come out of my mouth. Oh well. And we have had those gnats before too. I think they came in potting soil and they drove us crazy - they seemed to love flying around a person's face. I don't think I have bought any potting soil since that time! In any event, your cards are lovely! Nice stickeroo of the birds and gorgeous poinsettia!

I've never been attacked by a fruit fly before, but it doesn't sound like much fun. Mosquitoes are the ones that have me clapping my hands and chasing them around the room whacking them with a tea towel. :) I hate hearing that buzz in my ear.<br /><br />As for the cards ... so sweet Dolly. Love those adorable birds on the bright yellow. So cheerful. And lovely layered poinsettia ... perfect for our CAS Christimas challenge ... thanks for sharing with us!
