Cottage Window

Hi,

I hope you are all ok ?

On Saturday I did a couple of short classes with the very talented Faye, one of them I will be using for Alan's Father's Day card.

I made this card to cheer my neighbour up, as she has recently had a hip operation and as we both get lots of birds in our garden (including woodpeckars, nuthatch, yellow wagtail, goldfinches, robin, blue tits and great tits), I thought this was perfect for her.

Pet Sympathy

Hi,

I'm very sorry, but this is a sad post, especially for those of you, who are animal lovers.

There are times, when you buy a stamp set, but you also hope you don't have to use it, well unfortunately I'm having too - my lovely friend Nicky texted me on Wednesday, to let me know that her Boston Terrier 'Darcy', (who would only play with my dog Clio, so we used to try and meet up every couple of weeks for a walk), had been hit by a car and that the impact was too much for her, I must confess I burst into tears, as she was such a character.

Anyway here is the card I have made for Nicky and her partner Rob :

Punched : EK Success - 'Paw Print'

Paper : DCWV - 'Black & White Prints'
