Hi Friends!
A short and sweet post today. Hope your December is going well so far. Have you been sending and receiving cards yet? I have sent six so far but I have only received one to date. Perhaps the price of stamps has really put people off sending them this year.
I had a lot of arty plans involving participation in various daily challenges but unfortunately have been struggling with an ocular migraine since Saturday, so I need to rest and also seriously limit my screen time, so I am now behind in all of them! If you’re wondering, yes I am still on crutches – I am so tired of saying that btw – but at least when I look back on these posts it will be a reminder of just how long this has gone on. I am joining the Tea ladies today so here is an old photo I discovered when looking for something entirely different! It’s -4C outside today so I am definitely in need of a little hygge.
Today’s art . . .
These are the only Christmas cards I have managed to make so far and they have been sent to my RL friends a few weeks ago, so I know they have been received and so safe to share. The cards are collaged and feature the old Retro TV die by Tim Holtz/Sizzix, but they are cards with a secret as you will see from the short video below.
Let me know what you think in the comments below. As always, thanks for reading and Happy journalling!

Happy belated T-Day,

Sorry to read you are still on crutches and you now have a migraine. I learned a new word: hygge. I had to look it up. I can understand why you need it! It’s also an amazing reference to T this week, too.
I adore your cards. I would send you one if I had your address. HINT. I really love the cats. And I love how each is the same,. yet different. Thanks for sharing your hygge and drink,as well as your cards with us for T this Tuesday,. dear Elle..
Those cards are so lovely! Just manged to finish mine, too. Hope you feel better soon and get off those crutches.
I hope you’re feeling better. Your cards are very cute and very clever! I didn’t see that coming. Well done, you. Happy T Day
It’s only 8 AM at my house as I write this but a little hygge would be good.And a cup of something warm too instead of my cold protein shake. Grin. Sorry to read you’ve heard those headaches, NOT FUN. Lovely cards too, and fun festive T day photos.I hope your week improves not just with the headache going away but in all other ways and you have a super T day. hugs-Erika
Ack. Glad or sad back when I had my arm “off” for over 6 months there was no internet. But I SO read you….Think a bit late here for Christmas cards.
When I´m over my “creative crisis” I´ll send cards just any time 🙂
Happy T-Day and well wishes to your health!
I suffered bad migraine over years > acupuncture was the solution….
