My Dear Friend Nance moved to Tenn four years ago - we visited this summer and had a grand time. I still miss her - she was my crafting buddy and we were employed together for 15 years.
This Thinking of You Christmas card is going to be sent to her. We are both Tim Horton coffee fans and we enjoyed that beverage almost daily while working together. Thanks for stopping by and have a blessed week.
Gail !~

Lots of great details on your card Gail...I love the texture from the ric rac. Thanks for joining us at Poppystamps!
ReplyDeleteIt doesn't get any better than receiving a one-of-a-kind homemade Christmas card. Your friend will be over the moon.
ReplyDeleteI love that you used the plaid behind the trees die. I really like that look, and I wouldn't have thought to use a plaid there. Thanks for the inspiration, and have a lovely Thanksgiving.
Gail that plaid looks amazing behind those snowy pines!
