My Christmas cards

Not a great welcome for my new follower as I am being a bit bah-humbug and moaning about our freezing temps, I have missed visiting you all but between helping prepare kilograms of onions and shopping, on the understanding that we are going to be under siege, has taken the wind out of my sails. Cards not all done yet but I feel a wee halo rising above ankle level. Sending all my crafty pals a hug and hoping you are all staying warm and I will visit you all again soon. Please feel free to giggle as  I am now showing you how I like to see my Christmas cards.

    Good on you Flora to get the envelopes prepared, half the battle. Can I ask what the onions are for?

    Over the summer I was saying I couldn't find any onions that made me cry any more, anyway I managed to get some really sharp ones, 10 kilograms for £1.98 in Lidl and I have prepared some for freezing to use in all sort of stuff. I am very partial to onions especially bhaji.

      The cards are in the envelopes and going in the box tomorrow, I decided early this year to make most of my Christmas cards using the Thomas Kincade CD and it seemed still fitting to do so even though he had passed away. It is the first time I have thoroughly used a CD.

    Hope it gets warmer for you soon. Congratulations on having your cards ready to post. I still have more to make. We are having a heat wave here in Sydney.

    Well done Flora, that's how I like to see my Christmas cards too. I have 99 done now and hoping to get the inserts in them tomorrow. Unfortunately I have to type out my labels as I lost my label programme due to having to replace my hard drive earlier in the year. Still I'm better than usual!!

    Good for you Flora, great job done.
    I have a few made but I am not "Sending" many this year. I have donated some money I would have spent on card plus what I would have spent on "Postage" to one of the Charities Hazel and I are raising money for. I feel it will be put to better use.

    By the way just leave the coconut out of the Truffles and add a few more biscuits instead. Done that before when I have run out of coconut.
    Happy Crafting
