Good morning everyone. I'm supposed to be heading out to meet my parents today, but that might have to wait until tomorrow, again due to the weather. It's always either snowing or blowing with unbelievable wind chills, so I haven't seen them since December.
Yesterday, the sun actually shone and we had a balmy (hah) -8C, or -17C with the wind chill. Thankfully, the neighbours plowed my drive again, and I actually ventured out. One does have to go for groceries sometimes, and the mail....after all, there could be crafty bits there!
When someone becomes a Great Grandparent for the first time it is exciting, but it can be a little disconcerting too. After all, one never thinks of themselves as getting older...do they, but that new title.....yikes!
So I thought it was a good excuse to send a card, and I'm sure this pretty image will bring a smile.
Supplies used:
Image from Lacy Sunshine - Willow
Corner stamp from Stämpelkällan
Paper from American Crafts - Enchanted
Spellbinders die - Floral Ovals
other - paper candi, ribbon and peel-offs
Some challenges for my card:
