Thanks so much for all your well wishes about my Dad (and us as a family!) It's stressful here, but the good news is that his condition is improving. We can but hope for a full recovery - fingers crossed! Keep those positive vibes coming!
So whilst packing to come and stay with my family I made sure that I packed my CASE study card and camera; I spent a couple of mins after dinner today trying to find a good spot to take a picture for you and this is the best I could do:
I couldn't resist CASEing the layout and the use of stripy ribbon. In fact the whole idea of creating a Christmas card was inspired by the ribbon. This is a first. I never make my Christmas cards until December. Could it be that I'm going to be super organised this year? I very much doubt it *wink*
I've no idea when I'll be able to post again or get inky. I'm wishing I'd remembered to pack some stampy supplies but I simply couldn't choose what to bring for fear of upsetting my other stamps. I am blog-hopping though and although not commenting, I'm admiring all of your creations.
Oh and if you find time to join us on CASE study this week then please do! I'll still be checking out your work!
OK we're off to visit dad now so I've gotta go!
Catch ya later (how much later, I've not a clue!)
