Snowflakes for the Christmas Card Club!

Hello Everyone and a Very Happy New Year to You All. I hope this new year will bring Health, Happiness and Peace. Did everyone have a good Festive Time?

We had a lovely time, with a fab vegetarian Christmas dinner, a first for all of us, and truly delish. The main dish was cauliflower encroute with a cheese and truffle sauce, and of course all the trimmings, but with out bacon in the sprouts or goose fat for the roast potatoes. Damian, did the cooking and what a terrific job he did of it....must have taught him well. We were all well and truly stuffed. 
Milo and Rowan had loads of presents and and a great deal of fuss from myself and Alistair.

New Year celebrations were quite, but did go to the Red Hot Highland Fling, an outside party, with three bands playing. We wanted to hear Blazing Fiddles which we managed before the bitter cold drove us home to bring in the Bells in warmth and comfort, tea and toast. You know you'er getting old when this is preferable to bouncing away in the cold.

Anyway, it's all over, and back to normal, for which I'm glad as I kept getting lost with the days. It's also time for the Christmas Card Club girls to share their first card of 2019. We are a group of like minded crafters who want to get ahead of the of the game by having our Christmas cards piling up well before the Big Day, so If you would like to join us this year, let me know and I will put you in touch with Margaret who manages it all for us.  We each take a turn of hosting the theme and produce a card fortnightly....not too much, and there is also the theme of Anything Goes if you can't manage the chosen theme.  So, here is my card, theme chosen by our lovely Christine who would like to see Snowflakes;

Simple cards really, good job as my inspiration is still on a break. I've used a lovely stamp set from SU called Snow is Glistening....all snowflakes, this one is heat embossed with Wow Blue Icicles powder, with snowflakes stamped on the base card. The first one has a base of dark blue card and Silver EP. As I say simple but good if you want to make batch cards.
That's it Christine, I hope they will do, it was a lovely challenge which I enjoyed.

Thank you all so much for the lovely comments on my previous card, I do appreciate them, and although I've not been commenting  on your blogs....I really needed a break for it all, crafting included, I have been scrolling through my reading list and admiring the wonderful creations that you have all been making. I will get back to commenting soon.

I'll leave you with a photo of my lovely Teallach on Christmas Morning with his new toy,

Scheduling this for tomorrow when the blog goes live. Till next time have a super weekend and see you soon,
