Today's card was made for my beautician's father to send to his wife - the poor man has been in hospital since July with vascular problems...fingers crossed he will be allowed home for Christmas dinner.

The image is from Digi stamp Boutique and perfect for this card.

Again I have matted it onto a piece of Anna Marie Designs card.

Keep it Clean and Simple Reminder

Hi all...

Sorry for my absence from blog land - and although have made lots of cards have had very little time to blog.

I can honestly say I only have Eleanor's gifts to wrap and then Christmas can commence.

Hope all your preparations are coming to a close and that you are now ready to enjoy !!

Today's card is for a very, very special friend - who is most certainly one of lifes gorgeous people - inside and out. It was her birthday last week and she loved my card.

I simply used Bucket of Roses Delight and matted it on some Anna Maria designs card.

Thank you for stopping by and have a stressless couple of days

Just a quick one today to remind you of our super challenge at Ladybug Crafts Ink

Digistamp Nativity.

Happy Sunday !!

We had a lovely wander around our local Christmas market today ~ 'it's beginning to feel alot like Christmas'

Today's card is for a friend who lives in California and her parents live here in UK - she always sends me a scan of her greeting which I print and put inside and 

she doesn't need to worry about the card being late and any excessive postal charges....excellent idea ;0)

I have used a Digi-stamp Boutique image and Anna Marie Designs dotty card - coloured in with Pro-markers and 'sparkled' with my Wink of Stella pens which you can't really see in the photo.

Thank you for stopping by......

Hugs
