I went to a very poor Christmas Bazaar on Saturday, it was so bad that I wished I'd stayed in bed instead of walking into town on such a cold and frosty morning. However, there was one item which made the trip there worthwhile. Somebody was selling card blanks and I got a pack of 10 very nice quality cream card blanks for £1.25. This led to a frenzy of embroidery over the weekend which, so far, has resulted in five completed cards.
A brown squirrel, a black cat, and a green (!) rabbit.
Followed by a black terrier and, for a slightly more festive feel, one in red.
The timing of these card blanks couldn't have been better as I'd completely run out of them at the end of last week. I sought and, indeed, on this occasion, I found.
The cards are lovely! Love the bunny. What a great idea! Sorry the bazaar was disappointing though, never mind there are always the charity shops! I am missing the car boot sales already.

Hello Elizabeth
Have just discovered you en route from Nicky at Vintage Magpie..
I think your cards are charming...
I was intrigued to hear that you lived in the centre of Bath.. I lived in a flat above the store Jolly's for 13 years.. it was an amazing home.. I now live in another part of town..
