Happy Retirement

Hello My Crafty Blog Friends and Visitors

How has your weekend been so far? Some people get an extra day today. Which is nice. We have had a lovely weekend so far. On Sunday we visited our daughter and son-in-law to celebrate our daughter's birthday. We spent our time having walks with the dog and enjoying afternoon tea. They really do live in a lovely place with walks right on their doorstep. On Thursday last week we had our second jabs. This time neither of us had any side effects. 

On Friday last week our sister-in-law retired. She was the last one of our little group that was working so I had to send a card. 


The background is made with the Tartan die from the John Next Door range. I am looking forward to using this die for Christmas card. I did extend the die a little to make a larger card. 

I used a selection of Stencil dies from the John Next Door range to make the sentiment. 

The Stencil Alphabet die set was used to make the name. 


I know she loved her card. I think she had a good send off too. In a few weeks will be able to have a celebration. 

I would like to enter the following challenges:

Have a good week. 

Happy Crafting

Hugs Jackie
