Hi Everyone and a happy saturday to you all....yes Im back in the land of Blogging and its good to be back. I can't believe its been 4 weeks since I came on line and created a card.
The last fews weeks have been tough, for those of you that don't know...my dear grandad is not well and diagnoised with cancer and its now terminal. He's had his ups and downs the past few weeks but seems back to his old self this past week....and its so good to see him well at the moment. We don't know how long he's going to feel well.....and know that there's worse to come, but I've been trying to spent as much time with him as possible these past weeks...chatting about the old days and chatting out my nan (god rest her soul)
Well Im excited to be back with you all and what a week to come back. We have a real treat this week at Penny Black, the very talented Nat has created a gorgeous sketch for us all
Considering I haven't crafted for 4 weeks, Nat's sketch came so easy and Im pleased it didn't take me forever to put it together.....and I couldn't resist a Christmas card.
I just love Christmas cards....so prepare yourself as I'm sure you're going to be seeing lots more in the coming weeks.
