Hi sweetie , gorgeous cards as always! Sorry for the distinct lack of comments lately I've been ill. Good luck with the fair too.

WOW - those sentiments are fantastic, given me a chuckle this morning. I love them both but the santa wins for me too, love the colours. I'm sure these will sell for you. Glad your Hubbys anti-bs are working, the only thing I would say to watch out for is the infection spreading upwards or for any weeping, but he's hopefully on the mend. Good luck for tomorrow :) x
Two more lovely cards Coops, love the Santa one, he's great

Morning Nic..
Ooooh gorgeous Christmas cards... both! You should do well at the fair tomorrow...fingers crossed!
I just read your last post too... sounds like your hubby has cellulitis which I've had... it's nasty, but does go with the antibiotics. I was told I had to keep my leg up as much as possible... above my hip level, so if I lay on the settee, I had to have cushions to prop it further up. Hope that helps!
Hugs

These are gorgeous Nic love them both the images are so cute and have been coloured as always beautifully. Caroline xxx
Great cards, but Santa is my fave. Love the sentiment and soft colours. Hope hubby is better soon and the craft fayre goes well. I take sentiments too but can't stand peeloffs. I use printed sentiments. I could send you my template if you like, saves reinventing the wheel. Let me know.
fab cards as allways coops,wishing your hubby better,Good luck with the fair. sue xx

Oh Nic! I love these two cards!! Both the stamps are divine and your elegant card layouts and muted colours are delish!! Love them both to bits!!! Hugs, Wends xxx
two gorgeous cards again, loving these unconventional christmas colours you're using! Good luck with the fair xx
Love them both. Fabulous unique colors for Santa & great paper piecing on the second. hope Hubby gets well soon.
lovely cards, Nic. I especially love the paper piecing.
Hope your hubby soon recovers. it's dreadful when dr's don't know what it can be... hope they have tested his blood. I knew someone whose husband nearly died because he had a sore and fire red leg and nobody knew what he had. Until they tested his blood and found out that he had an infection that made him nearly die!!!! ooops, I better don't tell this, don't mean to scare you!!! Fingers crossed that he will be well soon!
Hugs, Alessandra
