Friends are Like Seashells – Thinking of You Card

Welcome to my Corner of the World

A little change of pace and subject today I broke out the Friends are like Seashells Stamp Set for today’s card ~ it is a gender neutral set and great for a whole host of occasions. I have made this as a thinking of you card, (today would have been my dear Pop’s 93rd birthday and he is in my thoughts) which is a great sentiment if you want to send a ‘just because’ card or it will work for sympathy or for someone who is unwell and you want to give them a little lift to their day.

Flip over calendar ~ December Poinsettias

Welcome to my Corner of the World

Here we are – December 2022 – where did that year go?

Last year I had such fun sharing my flip over calendar at the start of each month that I have decided to do the same for my 2022 calendar. This was designed for a stamp camp in November 2021, we had such fun making them and my ladies have made me promise to do another for 2022.

I have spent the last few weeks designing the calendar for 2023 – I will continue to share them each month starting in January and I will share a card using the same elements to show that the designs can be used more than once!

So today I share Christmas Poinsettias and Pine Cones
