    Hi everyone,
    Hope you all had a good Christmas! We had my mum from Christmas Eve until earlier today when I dropped her home. It was a very chilled couple of days - just how I like it and very much needed.
    JCS1 - so sorry to hear about your injury. Hope you are soon on the mend - take it easy x
    nmm - love the Elvis framed piece and the card is lovely too. Are you still doing a card a month for 2020?
    I will look to start the new thread tomorrow. We are seeing Little Women early afternoon. I will be sorting out some stash for the charity shop(!) as I have far too much and too little time :( My list for 2020 will definitely include another city scape or two - I have five more to do....
    In-laws will have their golden wedding anniversary in sept and ordinarily I would do a piece for that but given they have downsized I don't want to clutter up their new house. Might just do a card. I have time to find a design!!
    I am planning to walk the length of the U.K. from June to August so this will also limit my craft time.
    See you on the new thread tomorrow :)

    I didn't quite manage a card a month although I made up for it in December, i did complete all birthday and xmas cards i wanted to send, so i'll definitely do it again in 2020. Wow walking the length of UK sounds amazing, don't forget we have a date on either 26th or 27th of September ;)
