Hi fellow bloggers and friends! I just had to get a quick post in before we are off, in . . . eeek . . . five days! And I haven't even thought about packing yet! I have been busy sorting things out for Mum to ensure things go smoothly whilst we are away. We have an electrician coming around the day before we go to 'upgrade' our trip switches, to hopefully ensure we don't have a repeat of our last return home!
To-days card has presented me with a few problems, mostly to do with the amount of shine on it! The first problem was that, with the amount of heat embossing on the front, the card warped badly. The second problem was that trying to photograph with the foil, caused so much glare that I had trouble with the exposure. But, gentle readers, I got there in the end! Sorry about the poor quality photos though!
I will schedule a couple of posts for whilst I am away and I will miss you all terribly!
Thank you so much for your visit today and especially if you have left a comment. You are all appreciated more than you know!
If you have a question, please be sure I have a way to contact you so I can answer, as a lot of you are 'no-reply' bloggers, so I am unable to reply via e-mail.
