JYC 3rd December


Welcome to Journal Your Christmas 3rd December

Today Shimelle's prompt is all about Christmas Greetings


I have not purchased my cards yet but will get them from the EllenorLions Hospices charity I work for. For  close family and friends I have made some cards which I cannot show on this blog yet as many of you follow this blog and you don't have your card yet! I love to give and receive hand made cards, but as we send over 100 cards I don't make them all!!

It's great to keep in touch with distant family and friends and so we type out a letter with all the years activities - a sort of round robin with photos attached. Then we add personal messages to individual cards. So I guess it's time to check and update the list and get organised.

We have received a fun Christmas card from our neighbours Amanda and Colin already and looking back I see they were first the last two years too!

I have made them a card and have just delivered it to them this evening.



I used Dasher papers from Basic Grey and the image is a new one from Penny Black called 'Gift of Giving'.
