Hi everyone..........its almost Monday again and I can't believe where the weekend has gone !!! Apologies for sporadic visits as I was in Aberdeen catching up with friends...shopping and then out for a meal last night. I have managed only a little crafting time since Thursday so I am now definitely behind with Christmas preparations............But....it will be fine aagh !!
Hope you are all well and missing out on some of the awful viruses that are going around. x
Below is one of my Christmas Card designs, which I make for family and close friends.
The background was blended in Vintage Photo DI.....................where would I be without my vintage photo DI !!!! and then I stamped the gorgeous conifer branch from Letters to Santa all around. It really makes a lovely border.
Will catch up with all of you who left comments on my previous post tomorrow.
its certainly a busy time for everyone so THank You for taking the time to visit and leave a comment. I really do love to read them.
I am entering this make in the following challenges:
