A Happy Anniversary to my Mum and Dad
Hope you're enjoying your weekend and are better prepared for Christmas than I am at this stageĀ We had a quiet day at the craft fair yesterday. It started off very icy and cold though, so my guess is that most folks preferred to do their last weekend of shopping all...
Quick and simple with Season of Joy
If you're anything like me then you may be needing some quick and simple cards right around now ... and they don't come too much more quick and simple than this. This card started as a bit of an experiment with the new coloured embossing powders that I haven't got...

A thank you Christmas card
