About Me

Welcome to my blog

I started this blog in April 2012 so I could join Challenges. I am now on some design teams. I hope you like my cards. I started stamping in 1995 but my cards are still mostly cute.
Thank you to those who have joined as followers and to those who comment.
Unfortunately because of spammers I have had to put moderation on the comments. I will approve them as soon as possible, this also means I don't miss any.
I don't always get a chance to reply to all comments but I read them all when I approve them and I really appreciate you taking the time to give your comment.
The lovely banner was made especially for me by Amanda at Faery Ink Art & Design when I won her first blog challenge. family:";">http://faeryink.com/product/granmargaret-fairy-digital-stamp/

Farm Quest Country Christmas 6 - anything farm/country Christmas

Farm Quest Country Christmas 6 - anything fam/country Christmas
https://farmquestcountrychrismaschallenges.blogspot.com/2024/03/fq-country-christmas-6-anything-goes.html 

  I had my four weekly eye injections for the macula degeneration yesterday.  Unfortunately when I had the tests before the injections the glaucoma pressure had gone up to 33 in my right eye (normal is 12) so I have more drops also I have to have a different injection in my right eye for the glaucoma next Thursday.  The last one didn't work so hopefully this one will.  If it doesn't work I may have to have another operation on my right eye.  I hope not.  I have already had 3 operations on my right eye and two on my left.

I can't see very well but have tried to make a digital card.  My hands are too sore to make handmade cards.


I used WondersArtist coloured clip art from Christmas Ranch Watercolor clip art bundle
Borders from Digital Scrapbooking Studio CU Border shapes by Valentina's Creations
Sentiment from We are 3
