Hi Everyone
Life is still very hectic here .. .. .. last week was a blur with most of it centered around my Mum .. .. .. but I have my fingers tightly crossed that things are going to revert to some kind of normality again this week.
Today is a special day, it is our eldest Son's birthday. The lovely London Kid who I am very proud of! Not sure what I did to get two such wonderful sons but I am certainly glad and grateful that they are mine.
This is the card I made .. .. .. which gives a nod to two black rescue cats he and his wife adopted early in 2020.
This used:
Image: Opulence by Design "Black Cat with Oil and Chalk"
Sentiment: Computer Generated
Backing Papers: Eline's House Digital Papers - Roses are Red 1 and The Lovely Studio (sadly nowhere to link to)
Spellbinder Circle Dies
X-Cut Corner Rounding Punch
Nail Heads
Metallic Cord
My Trusty Sewing Machine
Hopefully things are going to be improving here this week. There is lots to be working on .. .. including a little thing called Christmas!!
Talking of which I picked up the Royal Mail delivery dates for Christmas last week .. .. so here are our panic dates for this year:
- Latest recommended date for 2nd class post
Thursday 23rd December
- Latest recommended date for Special Delivery

Beautiful cat image made into an equally beautiful card. Is it my imagination or are those Christmas posting dates earlier than previously? True, we do know about when Christmas happens but are any of us ever truly ready 🤔
