Aud Sentiments challenge.

 



Welcome to a new Aud Sentiments challenge

We would like to see

Thinking of you/ Get well/ Sympathy Sentiments 

I have made a Thinking of You card.

Every week since lockdown I have made a card for my Mother in law who stays in a nursing home. It has been a very hard time for her as she is 92 and misses her family. My husband and his sister are allowed in for serparate visits each week. It will be nice if we can all visit at the one time again and have a good old get together, but we just have to  be patient. 


This is a simple card using dies, Promarkers, pattern paper and a brad all from my stash.

I am entering this card into the following challenges:-

Christmas!

                 I have had time to play today, this doesn't happen very often of late.

I do try to make a few Christmas cards throughout the year but things have slowed up lately. I have started looking after my grand-daughter two days a week which means an overnight stay. It has all been fun looking after a 15 month old again, tiring but fun.

So here is a card to add to the Christmas collection.

I find it so easy to reach for square and rectangle card bases, but this shape fits                    easily into a 6x6 envelope and it looks so much more elegant.
