Just in case you missed it.....

Hello friends
Yesterday's blog post went up a little later than usual so just in case you missed it....
my new website has finally arrived!
You can view it here.

Some more info regarding ordering, navigating around the site etc can be found in
yesterday's blog post too.

And, talking of the new website - thank you for all the comments and messages - 
you all like it, yippee!
My Amazon shop will be closing shortly as I want to concentrate fully on the 
website.  Elliott is going to be my assistant through all of this, health permitting - 
I thought it would be nice for him to have something else to focus on.  
He is going to design some new sliders/banners, something festive is on order I believe!

Yesterday, knowing we were starting the six weeks of treatment today I thought
it would be good for all of us to get out, take in the fresh air and walk...it was very cold though!
Greenwich Park, London at twilight.  Canary Wharf and the 02 in the background.
We all had to wrap up warm including Bella!
I like to think this is her country tweeds look....it is my clever Mum that knits her jumpers.
Now how about something crafty!
In this month's edition of Cardmaking and Papercraft Magazine the cover gift is festive metal charms, they are really nice and I got to make some cards using them.
Here is one card using the 2013 Snowflake Pendant and I've placed a metal snowflake 
charm to the middle.
The papers are Kaisercraft - Christmas Carol collection.

I intend to still blog as much as I can - so keep your eyes peeled!
Take care friends, keep warm and wishing you all a good week.

Hi Christine. Congrats on getting thevweb site up and running. I have only just seen yesterdays post and will be off to have a look around the new site after this. I subscribe to Cardmaking & Papercraft and saw that you have two or three bits in this months issue (I love the owl and the snowflake Christmas cards)Glad you had good walk yesterday. Sending my love and best wishes, I will be thinking of Elliott as he starts this stage of his treatment, and of course also you and Mitchell. Take care.

Hi Christine

Love today's card. I shall try and have a go at this one. I love your cards because they are not to complicated to do, but still look fantastic. I hope Elliot gets on ok today. We have a friend here today you had to wear a mask while he had treatment for throat cancer and he said wearing a mask was traumatic even for an adult. Hope that he gets on ok today. Love to you all and hope everything goes ok today.

Hi Christine, As I said in my email, I love the new website and it will be so much quicker to find things than on the Amazon site.Congratulations on that and, like everyone else, I will be thinking of you and Elliott over the next 6 weeks. I'm sure he will do a great job helping with the website too whenever he can. I look forward to seeing his designs. I have the Cardmaking & Papercraft mag so I follow you in that. Good idea for the snowflake charm in today's card. Take care. Love Gemma xx

Hi Christine, hope all went well today at the hospital. Your website looks great, I'm playing catch up with my blog reading so will take a look when I've finished. Sophie my grand daughter reminded me over the weekend that it's advent calendar time soon and she had a special one last year.......... Your box frame... It's already filled and ready to go......she' s so excited as this year she knows why the boxes are special and that each one is a day nearer to Santa coming ! Lynn xx

Love the view and your card looks great in the subtle colours. Bella looks toasty warm in her tweeds! Hope today went well and that Elliott will stay well enough to enjoy being your assistant. It's good to have something else to focus on in difficult times.
