Hochanda TV cards

As some of you know I had some of my cards featured on Hochanga TV again. Show went live on Friday 27th at noon. Cards were made with Paper Nest Dolls images and they were all Christmas themed.

Here's a pic with Sharon (the presenter) and the TV lady (on the right). You can see quite a few of my cards there.
