Christmas is around the Corner*

*After seeing all the lovely christmas cards made by other Goy Friends, I thought it was time I started making mine.
The first batch are Tradional style and I used photos taken of the local Bridle Paths and Woodland during the snowy weather last winter, I also used a Depuage Robin theme to add interest, hope you like them.

Well thats all in this series will show more when I have completed the more abstract ones Im working on ;0)*

I can honestly say you have a wonderful talent for cardmaking, PP. You have made them all wintry and yet so interesting. The ones with your home/conservatory are so pretty.

I know your friends and family will love them. Better than any you can buy....and from the heart too! :)
