Smile....

Hello! 
I hope you had a good Christmas ... I did 

Here in the UK we are being battered by high winds and storms ... Fortunately where I live we don't suffer the floods ... just the high winds but many people  in the southern part of the UK have lost their homes this Christmas which is so sad

I'm staying warm and dry in my craft room for awhile ... In 2 days time it will be my son's birthday (where did all the years go?) .. Here's the card I made for him


I picked up some lovely papers and embellishments at TK Maxx last week ... I think these papers are by American Crafts ... 


The Thickers were included in the pack and I cut the camera out from one of the papers


Those balloons are from Crate Paper

I have a few birthday cards to do and it's a bit of a struggle getting back into it ...

I hope you have a lovely day

Till soon

I just got back from TK Maxx myself and I won't even start telling you about all the things I got there! And other places... Anyhow, that is a card that will really make him smile, I love it!

Here the weather has been terrible too, but like you we are all safe and warm, such a blessing... my heart goes out to all those that have suffered so much....

I'm glad you are safe and warm. The weather is really bad I feel so sad for the people involved.
At my place it's not that bad. A lot of rain and wind but okay. No flood or bad storms.
Hugs, Heidi:)
