I hope that you enjoy this and that it inspires you.

Well, I do love a bit of heat embossing yiayia and maybe by the end of the month I'll have my craft room back but maybe not.

Lovely. I like being challenged to get tools etc out! Attachment 210683

I really like that Elaine. Another one to add to the stash! I should really get on and make a few more for shhh! you know when.

That’s beautiful Elaine. I love the clean lines , and also the flower.
The sentiment is lovely too.
Ellie.

I keep forgetting your challenges Yiayia. They are hidden away.
Should be more prominent !!!!
Ellie

It's funny, usually I can only see yiayia's challenge and not Nat's, I really have to search for hers, isn't that odd.

Love that crisp, clean card Elaine and that stamp is fabulous!

Well my Youngest DGS is flying the coup in Nov. He’s secured himself a job,
on the ski slopes in Jasper Canada, for the winter. He will just be 19 yrs.
He’s deferred Uni for a year, so he can go.
I’ve made a going away money card. I will put a cheque in, to help him on his way.
I’ve used Blue ,Cream and embossing

What a perfect card Ellie. Good on him. Grab life while you can

Oh, Ellie, that is wonderful news. He will have a ball. I do love a 'kid' with adventure in their bones. The card is just perfect. So - get the old Skype working girl. Then he can send you all sorts of things and speak now and then. Um, maybe that last bit is asking too much eh?:rolleyes:

Probably Yiayia, but he’s quite good at communicating with us.
We use WhatsApp. Whether he will be too busy enjoying himself, remains to be seen :lol:

Thanks Ladies.

Oh, I also use Whatsapp but I thought that if that was used internationally then you had to pay for it? Mind you, I have never tried it that way so I could well be wrong. Does anybody know whether that is true?

I will find out Yiayia. Don5 want to pay, if you can get it free !!
Ellie

Well, I do know that Skype is free because I use it all the time in Greece to call the UK. I would be very interested to know what you find out Ellie.

I’ve looked it up and it says.
WhatsApp is free internationally if you use Wi-Fi. You may be charged according to
your phone plan, if you use your Data......
But if you turn your roaming off and use Wi-Fi it’s free.

So I suppose if you can get to use Wi-Fi it’s free.
But as you say Skype is free. I have Skype so I think it would be
best to use that.
Ellie

Ah, that all makes sense Ellie. Think I'll stick with Skype. Everybody I contact from Greece is on that and that's what we are all used to. In the UK we all use Whatsapp. Thanks for taking the time to look it up. :thanks:

Fabulous card Ellie. I never have my roaming data on unless I leave the house and use Whatsapp. Sometimes I even forget to do that and wonder why my messages aren't being replied to.:rolleyes:

Great, doable challenge, nice work Elaine, great idea to make it a Christmas one, super themed card Ellie, that will be well received.

This is mine ..
