Watching the Sunset!

Hello Friends and Visitors, I hope today finds you well and that you've all enjoyed your weekend.

we have enjoyed a lovely weekend weather wise, glorious sunshine and not too cold. We weren't hit either too much with the last storm like many  areas were, we are so lucky with our weather, being sheltered by the mountains.

It's been a weekend of celebration here, on Saturday it was our 28th Wedding Anniversary and yesterday was Alistair's birthday. Although we didn't do much it was still lovely. We went out for lunch yesterday to Beauly to a rather favourite hotel, and had a carvery, I suffered later though enjoyed it at the time. I still don't manage to take on board that I can no longer eat big meals.

Anyway, here is the anniversary card I made for Alistair,


Lavinia of course, two little Pixies watching the sunset. The toadstools are however from Card-io stamps. Elements ink, gel pens and a Lavinia sticker sentiment.

I'll post his birthday card another day.

I have only one birthday card left to make for this year, quite glad about that as it's for another male one.

Thank you so much for the well wishes for Alistair, he is recovering well, just feels tired and is taking a nap in the afternoons, but hey ho, nothing wrong with that and he is 78 years young now.

Thank you too for the lovely comments on my last card, your comments are always so kind.

Going to have a look now at what you have all been creating.

Cheerio for now, and take care,

Hi Kate

Belated anniversary wishes to you both and birthday wishes for Alistair.

The card you made is lovely. Those two little pixies are one of my favourite Lavinia stamps.

We will let Alistair off needing an afternoon snooze .. .. .. my Sister's chap often has one but he calls it a "power nap"! LOL!!

Have a good day.

Love Jules xx

Good to hear you had a good Anniversary and a meal too. I know what you mean about forgetting a big meal is no longer on the agenda. I absolutely love your card Kate, such a beautiful scene. The pixies amongst the mushrooms watch the far away water with Nature all around. Just beautiful.
