Have yourself a very merry Christmas

This will probably be my last post before Christmas day so just wanted to thank everyone for checking out my blog and their encouraging comments.  I particularly want to pass on to each and every one of you my warmest wishes for a really wonderful Christmas day.

Just wanted to share with you some of the lovely handcrafted cards I have received.

 

 

From my very talented friend Karen. 

I think I have already had this up on my blog but as it is so gorgeous it deserves to be shown again.

 

This one came all the way from Scotland from Joan’s sister-in-law Carol.  Looks better in real life than my photo.  Hope to meet up with Carol again when she comes over in the New Year to visit with Joan and David.

 

Another lovely card that isn’t done justice in this photo.  This one is from my dear friend Joan and even though it doesn’t show in the photo believe me this Xmas tree is all a-glitter.  It really stands out.

 

 

 

A gorgeous card from a gorgeous lady – Pauline in Napier.  You can check out Pauline’s wonderful creations in Up2Scrap, a New Zealand magazine that have picked Pauline as one of their elite design team for 2010.  Congratulations Pauline – well deserved.

 

This lovely card is from Jacque whose cardmaking classes started me on this journey.  The background is actually Very Vanilla, not white, but for some reason I am having trouble with my camera picking out the difference.

 

I have received so many lovely cards and messages this year – take a look.

          

Thank you everyone.  I am so grateful for all the support I continue to receive and am glad that this Christmas I am feeling so much better and can enjoy myself with family and friends.

Take care, have fun and I’ll hopefully have some Xmas photos to share with you.
