Keep calm and .....
Yet another set back this week for my Mum. One of the meds. she was given gave her hallucinations which in turn scared us a lot. These progressed over the week until they went from amusing to scary and frightened her. Once the meds. were discontinued she gradually returned to her old self. Phew!
On a positive note I have been making cards in abundance. We have lots of relatives as we both come from big families and lots of those relatives live around the world so I try each year to make cards for birthdays, wedding anniversaries etc in advance! I have a list next to my work desk and as I make cards I look to see who it would be suitable for and then cross them off the list. I always write out the card, address it and put the date of the occasion on then it goes in date order on a little cupboard by the front door, ready to be stamped and posted! It works for me, especially as we are tending to spend 3 months in Australia most years. My daughter posts them for me when we are away along with all the Christmas cards I also need to make and address in advance.

As usual, on the day, our son was going to a friends engagement party and asked me to make a card! Just noticed the tiny glue mark that wasn't easy to see when I made it! Amazing how the imperfections are highlighted when you touch up your photos!
I love the Martha Stewart punch around the page sets and made lots with this particular one. It's called Cherish and you can buy it from sirstampalot.co.uk
