Morning readers,
During these worrying times and , let's be honest, none of us knows what's next ... I've found myself reading more and spending more time at the ToC (Table of Craftiness) in order to take my mind of things. It's not exactly working but it IS helping - at this rate, I'll have my 2021 quota of Christmas cards in the bag during my period of isolation ... not exactly self isolating just not going anywhere I don't have to go - stay safe out there peeps.
As a result ..... I've a Christmas make to share with you today ....

Fabulous Christmas card.
Taking your mind off things is a great idea. It doesn't change the circumstances, but like you say, it just helps.

This poinsettia window is a beauty Kathy and love the colours, so bright and pretty. I think we will still be going out but going where there are minimal people and just being sensible, unless of course they decide to be draconian about it and we can't go out at all, which I hope will not be the case. Take care. x
Lovely card, great colouring. Who knows, with all this extra time, I might even get a bit better at colouring - unlikely to catch you up though.
Stay safe mate. Love the card i just love the poinsettia and the colouring is great
