 Afternoon everybody


It’s Alan’s birthday today and our youngest daughter Sarah is coming over after work for dinner and then they (Alan and Sarah) are going go-carting as a surprise present for him.  I am staying home and catching up with some sewing as Sarah’s birthday is on the 12 October and I am making her gift this year, will show pictures when finished.


As for cards well I have a couple to show you. 

This card is commissioned and they wanted to incorporate things that he was interested in through his life 


thought I would start on Christmas Cards 

 

I have had this stamp for ages but never used it so decided to play

 Well best go and start dinner both Sarah and I are dieting so something low in calories me thinks


Bye for now will do another post when I have made some more cards

Your commissioned card is fabulous Alison, it's nice to be able to make cards that are so personal, your other two cards are sweet, I especially like the fun penguin.
I hope you all have a lovely evening, happy birthday to your husband.
