Hello Blogging Friends, I hope you are all well, but if not I'm sending kind thoughts.
Are you enjoying this lovely weather? we are roasting up here, yesterday had record temps for us, 25 degrees, just too hot, any energy I had was zapped. Alistair left at 3.30 am to go to the Cairngorms, the heat hadn't started and of course nobody on the mountains. He loves doing that having the mountains to himself. Just as warm today, but it's cloudy with some rain showers. Still we need the rain.
Well, it's time once again for the Christmas Card Club ladies to show their cards, and this time the theme is Nativity, or Anything Goes.
This Nativity image is from Little Clair, do you remember them. They made some lovely stamps, and I bought quite a few of them.
I stamped this silhouette stamp and used Elements ink to make the background, then just added some gems. A very simple little card.
I'm a Birthday Girl tomorrow, 70 years young,😲 I can hardly believe it. Nothing planned.
Well, that's me for now, have a lovely weekend, take care and see you soon,
I do remember little Clare I have a few of their stamps…yours is just perfect for the challenge….
ReplyDeleteGlorious weather here as well just settling down to watch the French open mens finals….take care xxx
I don't blame him for enjoying the peace and the cool with stunning views I'm sure. We are trying to keep our dogs calm and cool. Not easy when they are busy..... Love the card too! Zoe x
