L for literature at the Alphabet Challenge

 

It's easy to guess which book I chose for the challenge, I am lucky enough to own a beautifully bound  limited edition,a present from my husband many years ago.  The film with Alastair Sim is also a firm favourite. I blanked out the greeting as the recipients name was on it.

Bah Humbug

This card was given to my elder son last Christmas but never blogged, he has a Bah Humbug attitude to giving cards, spends a fortune on gifts but point blank refuses to buy card. Luckily he has a sense of humour and this didn't bother him in the slightest, I think he was rather proud of it honestly.

Congratulations

My nephew is being married this summer and I have made a couple of cards which I think are suitable,this is the first though both have a vintage feel to them ,I will show the other at a later date.

The image was free from The Graphics Fairy there are loads of beautiful images there, it's well worth a look. Lace, pearls and flowers to finish.

Many thanks to followers old and new, my most recent being Sharon Goold I love to read your comments and appreciate the time you take to visit.

A fussier card today, I find vintage quite challenging, but love viewing this type of card in blogland the only way to improve is to keep trying.

This card and gift card are for my son to give to his fiancée for Valentines Day. Although he is thoughtful and caring cards and gift tags just aren't his thing. Hi likes to keep things plain and simple,(the card) I like a bit more depth and a little bit fancy for Valentines the tag)
