Hi anyone that comes to visit, I haven’t posted in a while … Not that I haven’t been making cards, I just haven’t posted any of them because I’ve been lazy. Oh – and I bought a house that decided to have a several unexpected issues and I’ve been working to get those challenges resolved. I’ve decided to start posting all the cards that I’ve made over the past year. I did not keep track of layouts, materials etc. If I remember what I used, I’ll add that information. Please enjoy!

"Ringing" in the New Year

I have always thought of Christmas time, when it has come round, as a good time; a kind, forgiving, charitable time; the only time I know of, in the long calendar of the year, when men and women seem by one consent to open their shut-up hearts freely, and to think of people below them as if they really were fellow passengers to the grave, and not another race of creatures bound on other journeys.  ~Charles Dickens

Good Morning Friends
