A Cold Monday ...



Oh my goodness it is so cold here ... we have hail storms, wind, rain ... you name it!
I don't like this weather at all ... and I have so much to do before Christmas ... more presents to buy, cards to send ... etc., etc., 

Tomorrow is our last class for this year at Philosophy and as one of our group is leaving to go back home to London ... we are all going out to dinner ... I got a little book for him on Meditation and made him a card and matching envelope too 


Making masculine things can often be difficult .. so I stuck with a pocket card and a lovely image from Madebyjanet
And used plain wrapping paper with some sheet music for the present and the card


I think these look ok for a guy ... what do you think?

Have yourselves a warm and happy day ... I'll be back tomorrow with my DT project for City Crafter Challenge ... hope you can stop by ...

Thanks so much for your lovely comments 
Till soon

Quite a beautiful set of gift things, Ros! I think anyone would love these. Sorry about your weather. I am rather enjoying the cold and rainy here. It is not too cold at 41, but the storms and rain are welcome. I will be decorating the tree today, making soup and quite happy to be in. Have a wonderful evening.

This is perfectly masculine, Ros. The colors, the ship, the twine, and I love how you wrapped it in plain brown paper. He'll think it's wonderful too.
