Grandparents are Precious

Grandparents are Precious

Hi there! Thanks again for joining me. Took the kids over to Oma and Grandad’s this morning, had some of Oma’s good ol’ German potato soup, and left them there.

Just like the good old days, when I used to drop them off with Mum and Dad, so that I could go do a show, an exhibition or a workshop. So here I…

Advent Day No. 17 and some fresh snow…

Hi there! Thanks for stopping by. Wednesday already ! Oh boy! Christmas Eve is looming fast here, and I haven’t written a card yet!!! I am rubbish, I really am.  What an ambassador for a stamp company! But this evening I shall get my act together…. Here’s a little Christmas offering, in anticipation of this Big Freeze which is supposed to be descending on us in January.  Hands up who believes it…. Used a Deckle-edged die,  which is very unusual…
