Yesterday I borrowed stamps from Lei and stamped off some images.... this first one I did in the soft brown, blue, pumice stone and Victorian Velvet... so far only made up the brown here~
I used a CB folder for the tree trunk background. A very simple and quick card. Great for a male birthday.
I also borrowed a Stampin' Up set called "Lovely as a Tree" and did the big scene - stamped a reindeer in the front of the trees and Merry Christmas on it... still to put it together. So a few images ready to make up when I get the time.
Had a great time last night, - about 40 of us from all the groups meet and shared a lovely meal. I managed to catch up with some ladies I haven't seen for awhile... we all go to different mass times....both have girls that Emma was at school with... Not such a great end to the evening as the All Blacks lost to Australia by 2 points :-( so sad faces around...
Have spent the day getting things organised for later in the week. I am having a little operation on Wed afternoon.... spending the night in the hospital after having an Ablation..
My surgeon does not want to do a hysterectomy due to my risk of clots so we are hoping this will fix the issues I am having.... Taking a few days off to recovery - but back to work on Monday...
Thanks for stopping by...
