I needed to make a few Christmas cards to send home with an overseas guest, one led to another and now I am all done - yippee! These two pictures show Christmas cards which feature playing cards from a pack I purchased several years ago and did not do anything with until now.

My gift cards, ready to put on little end-of-year gifts at school.

Last year I bought cards for the first time in almost a decade, and regretted it, I am so pleased to have these all ready to give and send. Now to complete some swaps I have due, and have somehow left to the last minute again.

My Art-of-the-Month for September from
Bevlea. A beautiful montage inside an equally beautifully decorated tin.

Beautiful bookmarks purchased from
Carole in New Zealand.

Charles: The best excuse for not ironing.

Yum! The beginnings of a red marsala curry sweet on my tongue and then so hot the top of my head was sweating and my lips went numb.

My Art-of-the-Month from
Debbi in August. A wonderful fabric collage now hanging in my entrance.

Today was wonderful I taught a jewellery class at school and the class were so interested in the art side of jewellery and the choice of found objects as a focus - bliss. I only teach on special occasionally as I find it takes the joy out of my personal creative time if it is also my work.
