Welcome to my Corner of the World ~ blog post 1601!!
Good morning everyone ~ I have been absent for a few days due to my eye condition (see here for some background) Things are improving although it is still difficult to see clearly out of my right eye.

Welcome back to my corner of the world
Merry Merlot and Balmy Blue are not two colors I would have naturally put together, until I remembered there is a UK soccer (football) team whose colors are claret and blue !
I used the Tasteful Textures Stamp Set for my card today along with the Basket Weave Embossing Folder to add even more texture. ~ just love texture on my cards. This is a stamp set I have used quite a bit and I have put some links to those cards a little further down this post.
