Monday - look out! Here comes another week!

Morning readers, 

Good weekend? Get up to much? We had a couple of pre Christmas get togethers planned which would have been nice. Good company and good food, always a bonus! However, the first one got postponed due to one of the party having a cold (fingers crossed JUST a cold, but we postponed anyway, just in case) - stay well all. At least we'll now have something nice to look forward to in January. The second meal went ahead, as planned, and was a hoot and a half!

I've a make to share with you today ....... time to break out some elderly stash. The wood mounted image has been in my collection since at least 2009. In the run up to Christmas I'm trying to prepare myself, by having plenty of "Thank You" cards in my collection. AND .... it DOES make a change from Christmas cards!

My C6 card

Materials used:

• White, 250gsm, C6/A2 card and matching image
• Card in white and pink
• Nesting faux stitched and scallop edged dies, to cut my image panel and matting panel
• Hero Arts image (F4336 - Flourish bud) stamped using Versafine Clair charming pink ink
• Glitter washi tape
• Clearly Besotted sentiment (from "brushed sentiments) stamped using Versafine Clair morning mist ink

I'll be entering the above make for the following challenges:-

1. HLS - December die challenge - ANYTHING GOES
2. Creative Fingers - challenge No. 221 - ANYTHING GOES
3. Polkadoodles - challenge No. 50 - ANYTHING GOES
4. Pink Gem - challenge No. 25 - ANYTHING GOES
5. Lil Patch of Crafty Friends - challenge No. 171 - ANYTHING GOES

My regular readers will know that I walk most mornings, aiming for three miles daily (but sometimes failing!) and may have noticed that I've not shared any pix lately. Having fallen victim to a cold (yes, JUST a cold) I found myself less than keen for a period of around ten days!! When I returned to it, I was breaking myself in gently and have only just worked my way back up to three miles .... yesterday I set off, determined to do the full distance AND, since it was a nice dry day, take some pix ....

So lucky to live so close

Even the toy library/defunct phone box
gets decorated for Christmas!
