Hi Everyone
Surprise, surprise .. .. yet another Christmas card offering.
Crafting sessions seem very rare at the moment, so when they do arise I tend to concentrate on festive makes, and I was so happy with the finished result from my tiny craft session yesterday that I have prepped ready for making another five identical cards.
My inspiration was the Christmas Kickstart Challenge where the theme is "just add antlers".
This used:
Sentiment: Computer Generated
Backing Paper - The Works (from one of last years design pads)
Corner Rounding Punch
My Trusty Sewing Machine
My Trusty Sewing Machine
and that is me for today.
Many thanks for all your well wishes for Mum .. .. .. she is still needing lots of help and that will only get worse .. .. .. hence the huge reduction in crafty time. Crafting will always be there though but my Mum won't, so I have to make the most of what time I have left with her and give her whatever help and support I can.
Dementia has a lot to answer for and certainly requires a lot of patience and understanding .. .. thank goodness I was blessed with an abundance of both! But the good thing is Mum doesn't think there is anything wrong with her. Bless .. .. if only that could be true.

Cute card. Love that image. I am very happy to hear that you have an abundance of patience both for your and your mothers sake. It is a challenge, but as you say, it won't last forever xx
Another gorgeous card and image. It’s a very cruel condition, for all concerned, but you are doing an amazing job, and importantly, having a little time to yourself xxx
Very cute image Jules and beautifully put together xx
What a sweet image - I love it! Your card stash must be getting really healthy now, Jules. Thanks for joining Vicki and me at The Christmas Kickstart Challenge, Jo x
Such a wonderful card! That image is so cute and I love the stitching too! It's lovely that you are able to spend lots of time with your mom.
Awww Jules, a lovely image and I totally get the comment about spending the time with your mum as mine was in the same situation- sadly I lived too far away from her to be of much help.
