Hi Everyone
I hope you are all well and staying safe.
It has been a day pretty much full of rain here!
I have been back in "wedding mode" this week and have today delivered a second set of invitations to a couple who unfortunately had to cancel their last wedding. They have now arranged a "very small" wedding which will hopefully be able to happen .. .. .. and they will then have a "big" celebration on their first wedding anniversary. I am keeping my fingers tightly crossed for them.
So with the invitations delivered I finished a card that I had started for taking over to Fezziwig's Festive Frolics Challenge where Hazel has provided a lovely sketch for us to work with this fortnight.
This is my offering:
This used:

I seem to be doing quite well with Christmas cards this month .. .. well over my quota of 5. Good job really because I still need lots more before December arrives!
Enjoy the rest of your evening and weekend .. .. and don't forget to alter those clocks.
Aww love that image, its totally Christmas. Honestly Jules, your sewing, wow, its so precise especially around the circle and it adds such a personal touch. I like the Argyll patterned panel and you worked the sketch brilliantly.
ReplyDeleteAs you will soon discover, I'm a massive snow and Christmas fan and once I go Christmas I go full throttle Christmas... even the cat doesn't escape without some festive adornment.
Enjoy the rest of the weekend x
Hi Jules

You do manage to find some adorable images - loving this one and the sentiment shape gives the whole thing a bit of extra interest. Very wet yesterday but so far sunshine this morning, long may it last!!
ReplyDeleteMorning Jules...love your sweet Robin card.. like the colour ways.. you are really ‘rockin’ Robin with your Christmas cards...
ReplyDeleteOur weather was the same here yesterday but we’ve got sunshine this morning... I feel very sorry for those people getting married it be a day to celebrate with the whole family and friends...

Oh, what a lovely Christmas card, such a cute bird ! Yes, we live in terrible times, here in Belgium, the rules are also stricter again, as Corona numbers are getting high... So sad for the wedding couples everywhere. We also have a rainy Autumn, but it gives us time to make more cards ! :) All the best and stay safe ! Enny
ReplyDeleteYou never cease to amaze me how you put things together and 'they go'!!..lol
ReplyDeleteI wonder if you spend ages like me trying this bit, then that bit, no what about this bit??...you get the drift.I lose the will to live trying to source the right piece!
Anyway a super card with a lovely cute image and sentiment.Enjoy your Sunday. xx
What a fantastic card Jules, I love the image. I have to say that I do feel for all these couples who have had big wedding plans, only to see that delayed or cancelled. But a smaller wedding and a big party at a later date seems like a great idea too.

ReplyDeleteAhhh what a sweet card, I love that image!! It was rainy here yesterday too, but today is has mostly been windy. Its such a shame for all the Couples wanting to get married. Hopefully by this time next year all will be ok for them once again, Thank You for sharing with me over on Fezziwigs, Hazel xx
ReplyDeleteWe have had rain for much of the day too Jules and more to come tomorrow. But I'm not complaining because they need the rain. I so do hope the small wedding goes off as planned, it is been such a challenging year for brides and grooms, well everyone really. I love your sweet birdie card Jules, fabulous papers, such a cute birdie image and I love how you did the sentiment. Hugs, Brenda
