Just catching up

Just been catching up with the blogs I've missed this week. Some gorgeous cards out there. I have managed to make a few more cards to add to my friends box of about 45 for her Christmas box. Have been trying to make some more cards suitable for men. The one enjoyed making the most was the seascape one. First time I have used those stamps and I think it came out quite well. Only thing I think is wrong is the clouds.
I have also managed to wrap all my Christmas presents bar two. Going to start on writing my Christmas cards when I get back from hospital tomorrow.




I have been a bit upset this week my washing machine as broke and is beyond repair. Just when I could do without any more hiccups.Start chemo on Wednesday I will just be glad when I see the back of this year. Happy crafting have a good week. Hugs x ChrisB

    I can't see a thing wrong with the clouds Chris. I think the whole scene is fabulous and so are the other cards. I've never seen that windblown tree before but it's lovely and what a clever way to use that co-ordinating embossing folder. I might have to 'borrow' that idea as i have that same folder.

    I'll be thinking of you on Wednesday but then I think of you most days to send positive thoughts your way. Take care Buddy.

    Biiiig Hugs

    lovely cards Chris - really like the lake one,the water is great and there is nothing wrong with a few clouds! The windblown tree is lovely too, not seen that stamp before, different to the usual tree stamps.
    Good luck with the chemo, hope the fluid and pain is going

    Thanks for letting me know about that stencil Chris. I wondered how you'd got them blowing in different directions, lol! Lavinia (or rather Tracey) designed those stencils for someone else to market I think. I remember seeing them on the stand opposite the Lavinia one at the HSNW show in October. I'll find them!

    Hope you're okay today.

    Big Hugs
