ATC

Sorry was again behind with them, but am happy to say have caught up...

This one was for the September 'Things that make you smile' theme which was set by Donna and I was to send to Val... the reason I chose the snowdrop was because when I see them it brings back memories of my sister and I always trying the first one to give our mum a bunch of snowdrops. But not sure how and why it started, but if I see them today I always buy my mum, sister and myself a bunch. The photo was of the one and only snowdrop that I had in my garden this year, lol...


This one was for the October 'Autumn' theme which was set by Val and I was to send to Alma. The idea came when reading a post on Do-crafts about how Alma loved to go for walks and kick the fallen Autumn leaves as a child. So I cut a load of leaves out using sizzix and spellbinder dies, then just dropped them onto the card and glued them where they laid...


The last one was for November 'Nature in Winter' theme that was set by Fiona and I was to send to Carole. It was NOT allowed to be Christmas related as we have that to look forward next month. while thinking of winter, thought of the bare trees and snow, then remembered the stamp set I had...

p.s. the above comments are not intended to be negative - I'm just not in a good place right now.

Hi it's Maria said...

thanks sue...xx

and I didn't see it as negative, as life whatever it is, can get in the way and if crafting is a way of helping us through them, it's lovely to get back to doing it, hugs...xx
