Mo Manning - Christmas Card

Good Morning everyone, jeepers isn't it a windy one. A few weeks ago when it was this windy 2 ridge tiles blew off the roof and put a dint in Chris's car door. He only got his car back from the repair shop on Friday so he has just gone out and moved it off the drive onto the road. The tree will probably blow over now and crush it lol.

My card today is another Christmas card to add to my collection.

Jean's Birthday

Good morning everybody. Sorry I haven't been posting lately. I had 3 days off at the end of last week and as Chris was off too, we went out everyday so no time for cards I'm afraid. :(

I had a lovely time.  Wednesday me and mum went to see The Dancing on Ice Tour.  We loved it.  The show the professional skaters put on was fantastic.  Friday Chris and I went walking in The Chadkirk Chapel Estate in Stockport, Saturday we went to Quarry Bank Mill and Sunday Little Moreton Hall.  We have just joined the National Trust so no doubt we will be spending many weekends now out and about.  I'll have to start crafting in the evenings, if I can stay awake after a day at work.

Anyway enough waffling, back to today's card.

Good Morning everyone. Hasn't it been a lovely morning. Today I am posting a card made for my Auntie Christine's 60th birthday.  She is my mum's youngest sister and mum and dad are going to stay with her next weekend so they can take my card with them.  She lives in Lincoln so they can pop in and see Emily whilst they are there.  Chris is taking her back to Lincoln today so she can have a week of revision before Uni starts again next Monday.

I have made a white on white card, think I have gone a bit OTT with the embellishments though.
