HELLO!

Just having a peek to see if I still know how everything works..hope everyone's okay and still out here in blogland. Will be getting around to visit you soooooon.   
So have the kettle on, or maybe a glass of wine would be nice.  Only time I've been in here is to dust and vac.  My computers gone mad loading up. So much out of date {bit like me} lol. Tried the printer too and had to replace all the inks!! Going to look around and familiar myself with everything again. Ashamed to say I've been buying cards 😳. But, with the change in weather I'm determined to start Crafting again and entering Challenges.


Love to  ALL

HELLO PEEPS!

This is the first card I've made since July.
Christmas cards were bought ones.  I knew I had to make this card especially because it was a special date. The reason why I've not been about is my husband died in October.  I'm grateful that he was able to stay at home with back up from the medical profession.  Grateful too for good friends and family. My MIL still can't believe it's happened. I'm going to try and ease myself back into card making, I've first got to try any remember what I have and how to use it again! Took my five minutes to remember where I stash my signature! and another ten to remember how to get it onto this card!!

These stamps are C.C. Designs.  Julie is the National Membership Officer for the Vikings. So I just had to buy them. Trouble was I wasn't sure which to use?  So I ended up using the set!  Coloured with Copics. Sentiment Computer generated..
