I hope you're enjoying your weekend.
It's a lovely morning here on the island, we've got blue skies, the sun is shining and this is the view from our bedroom window ..... we can see the sea!!
Yes ...... we're on our family Staycation.
We arrived at Ballarhennie House yesterday and the cottage is beautiful. It's so peaceful, and it has everything we could possibly need ..... including a cat that likes to make itself at home! We've just got Lauren and Alex with us here at the moment, and Chris and Myra will be joining us tomorrow .... it's going to be fun.
I'll share more pics with you during the week.
I'm playing along with this month's CAS Christmas Card Challenge ....... again! I must be getting the festive spirit!
This one is so pretty ....... and it's really quick and easy to create cards.
Simply stamp the image ..... I stamped directly onto my card base. One layer cards are great for posting
A little bit of sparkle to the branches with some fine crystal glitter, and a few splatters of gold and silver ink onto the background ........
That's another one for the festive box!
It's his birthday tomorrow (Monday) ..... I can't believe he's 10!!
