Carol Singers for the CCC!

Hello Everyone, good to be back after being away to our friends and the Edinburgh Jazz Festival where we had a fab time, I have to say and a great old catch up with Dale and Stewart. But, it is good to be home again no matter how well treated, and I always miss Teallach.

How are you all doing?, I hope you are all well and still enjoying the lovely Summer weather.
 We've had quite a bit of rain, and duller days, but still warm, except for last night where we could have done with some warmth whilst at our friend's birthday/retirement party. He had organised a BBQ, and a gazebo to sit in, but there was quite a chilly breeze blowing which sent the wood smoke from the fire everywhere. Hence a new pile of washing this morning. Anyhow, it was a good night, and the first time I've heard Alistair and Dougie playing their instruments together and they were fabulous. Doug plays whistles, and mouth organ and is super at accompanying Alistair's fiddle. I only hear Alistair practicing and not hearing the music right through and I was stunned at his rendering of The Achocan  Farewell, it was amazing, and everyone stopped talking to listen.  very proud wifie!!

Now, here we are again with cards for the Christmas Card Club and it's Margaret or Duchess who has chosen the theme this time around and she would like to see Carol Singers or Choirs, here is what I've come up with;

I love these little guys from a Debbie Moore CD called Snowbodies. I've had this CD for a good many years and wasn't one that I got rid of, I did most of my others as it's not the kind of card making I like to do. These elements were ones I had already printed out and had kept in a drawer, so came in very handy and I've just added some Star Dust for a bit of sparkle.. It's quite a small card, C6 or something like that, but all the bits fitted on perfectly. Hope you like it.

Well, that's me for today, but just want to thank everyone who left lovely comments on my last post, and also to mention that although I wasn't commenting whilst I was away, I did see beautiful creations from you on my reading list.
Have a lovely Sunday whatever you're doing and hope to see you soon,
