It's Friday, and my very first
Unity Friends with Flair post for the year!! So very glad to be back and I will try harder to post every week.
I've had 2 wonderful weeks in Malaysia, and it was great to spend Christmas with my parents and a short trip to Cambodia. Towards the end of the trip I caught a flu bug and had to start the year being sick :)
My sister had given me this beautiful border lace and the fabric flower which I think dressed up this card nicely. I used the image from Stamp of the Week -
Let Beauty Surround You, and coloured the girl's top to match the colour of the flower. The sentiment is from the PH set
And for a Moment. Have you seen the new Phyllis Harris stamps? I can't wait to get them :) So excited!
And, since I mentioned Cambodia, I'll share some pics from the trip. I visited Siem Reap, well known for its amazing temples, one of which was the site where the movie Tomb Raider was filmed. I had a great time, and really enjoyed the food as well as a peek into the lives of the locals. It's a place I wouldn't mind going again...

| Amazing engineering, in the 12th century, man figured out how to distribute the weight away from the centre of the structure |

| Long corridor just outside the temple |

| View from the top of the highest temple in Angkor Wat |

| The guide told us this is the difficult climb to the temple, the height of the temple brings one closer to heaven. |

| This tree gleams in the sun, coppery and so beautiful |

| My favourite dessert in Cambodia - Chocolate Banana Pancake, absolutely delicious!! |
Hope you enjoy the pics.
Have a great weekend!!
