Nan's Birthday

It's Nan's 91st birthday on Thursday... I don't get to see her nearly as much as I want to :(

Darn this not being able to travel much!...

Anyway, I decided to make her a cross stitch that shows a big hug so she can look at me and get a hug from me whenever she wants :) Second-best thing if you will...



I do hope Royal Mail don't kill it on the way!!!!! I didn't have a box so I had to send in a padded envelope...

Decided to branch out and actually use an INSERT in her card too...hope she knows how very special that is... people don't usually get one! :)




I'd like to enter it for the Pollycraft Challenge Blog's Anything Goes

Hope you like them

*hugs*

    What wonderful gifts. Your Nan will absolutely love them. I don't do inserts either! Did you print yours out? I haven't a clue how to do that on the computer at home, so you're very clever.

    There are more anything goes challenges to enter if you look at my blog at the Strawberry Grandparents day card.
