Choir




It was a beautiful day yesterday, we spent most of it in the garden tidying up before the weather changes, it's totally satisfying to see the effects of your hard work, I've still to pick the apples and pears from the trees, this has been a great year for them, but will leave that as long as possible, then some will be cooked and frozen and some made into chutneys. My diary is also pretty full for the next 2 weeks, meeting with friends and relatives I haven't seen for a while.
Thank you for your much appreciated comments on my last few cards, I do enjoy reading them.

Today's card is another for the Christmas box which is filling up quite nicely.

Awww this is SO cute Meg… such an adorable image and I love the gorgeous papers and embellishments… the flowers and doily are very pretty!
I've just ordered a back issue of crafting magazine with a xmas die on. It looked a good one to make a few quick Christmas Cards, so can't wait to have a go. I've just started a tapestry of cottage in snow… find that very relaxing! I love apples and pears… they will make really tasty chutney… has made me very hungry now! Lol. Off to get my chicken curry... lemon cupcake for dessert!
Enjoy your time catching up with friends and relatives! ;-)
Love and hugs, Sue B xx
