I hope you are well, but if not sending out kind thoughts and hugs.
We are all well and dandy up here, and I am looking forward to a visit to Glasgow later in the week when a meet up with my lovely blog friend Rita is on the cards. I decided to stay overnight and not rush, so of course Alistair included himself on the days out. He will do his own thing though and we will also meet up with his brother and niece in the evening. I've not seen Karen for years and she is now in her early twenties, time has sped by there too.
It will be lovely to catch up with Rita and have a nice lunch, she has booked an Italian restaurant so we will be nice and stuffed when we hit the shops.
Thank you so much for all the lovely comments on my Santa cards, you are so kind.
I've got a little Snowpeople card today;
This is one of the new images from Crafty Individuals, isn't it lovely, I've coloured it with a mixture of Derwent Inkintense Pencils and Sakura pens. I've added some snow and glitter to the Snowpeople. The background paper is also from Crafty Individuals and the sentiment is a Chocolate Baroque one.
I must have more that enough Christmas cards made now, but I do so enjoy making them and I've so many new stamps on my desk, I feel the need to keep going with the Christmas images, they will always do for next year.
Alistair is having a fiddle practice just now, and I can hear the thumping of the foot, the fiddle is one thing the thumping quite another. Did I mention that he is part of a concert in a week or so. His teacher has all sorts of students of varying abilities,learning and ages they are holding a concert. Well of course I'll be going, Alistair is quite nervous having never done anything like it before. It could be a mini Blazing Fiddles.
Well that's me for now, off to make mushroom soup for tonight. I'm a bit behind with my commenting, but I'll get around to you soon, take care everyone and see you soon,

There is no people like snow people that melt when it gets hot. Nothing beats that special feeling like when you are playing in the snow!

Wonderful card! I just adore your snowman family, so fun and festive! Great papers and the sentiment is a lovely contrast! I'm in the same boat, I have more than enough cards but I just can't stop making them! Christmas cards are so much fun and it puts me in the holiday spirit to work with all the festive elements!! hugs :)
Hi Kate
You do love your snowmen don't you and I guess that you are building your own with all that snow you've got.
Enjoy your catch up with Rita and careful out and about in that horrible weather.
