Good morning
At last the snow has disappeared here in Norfolk :-) It's my work Christmas Party tonight and a few of us are staying over. I am sharing a room with two of my friends, Jo and Sarah, so it should be good fun! Jamie is much better now but unfortunately Chris and Chloe have now caught it so I feel guilty about staying out overnight but Chris assures me they will be okay.
Today's card is another one I made for my friend. This one is for her parents and she told me that they don't do cute so it proved a little tricky at first because I love cute. Anyway I had a good look through my stash and found a sheet of Penny Black Stickeroos with this beautiful bird image and teamed it up with some Memory Box papers.

Awww this is lovely, I think it's perfect for the non-cute card lovers. Enjoy your party. Hugs xxx
Hi Lisa, This card is perfect for "non" cute lovers. My mum too is not a cute lover and like you I did struggle a bit, but found my old fashioned santa and that did the job. Have a lovely sleepover and don't feel guilty, just think of all the time you are there for your family and that you do need ME time to keep going. Merry Christmas to you all. Debbiexx
