For My Husband


 


Yet again Blogger has changed some of the settings, I was getting used to it, then more changes. Complaining done with.

Thanks for your visit today and for your welcome comments. I don't buy many craft magazines, but when I saw the free Highland Collection with issue 190 of Papercraft Essentials, it tempted me. Some of the images and papers are gorgeous.

I decided to try a  circular easel card for hubby and was fairly pleased with it. I made it over several sessions as I am still uncomfortable when sitting for any length of time.

A really beautiful card Meg! I love it! I can see why you bought that Magazine. Gorgeous images and a wonderful easel card. Yes, blogger is infuriating, but I am slowly getting used to it now. At least I can now do or find a couple of things I couldn't before. Sorry it has been a while since I visited. Hope you are feeling a bit better with your back
