Simply white

Hi Everyone,
well after a great 4days away in the Cotswolds, I am now trying to get back into routine with my crafting. Its quite difficult actually when you have just been Wined and Dined and driven around some of the loveliest places. No meals to cook or clean up after and Coach driver to do the driving...can't beat it!!
We have never done a coach holiday before, so decided we would try a short break one to test the waters. I think we will be booking some more,On the way we stopped at Banbury for a few hours, then  included was a full day at Warwick castle, what a fun day we had, A full day visiting Bourton-on-the water 4hr stay, onto stow on the wold, and Broadway.  our last day was spent in Stratford on Avon. A good time had by all, and missed the rain every day...whooo!!
Well now to crafting.. I have tried to do some catching up with blogging over the past 2days but sorry if I haven't reached you yet, I will try to visit you very soon xx
This card was a real struggle for me as I don't think I have ever done a white on white card before. I saw the challenge on Craft Room and thought I want to try that.....fool..lol




The only thing I could think of making was a Christmas card, that for a start was a No-Go area for me...lol     I don't do Christmas till at least November.. in fact it usually is Dec.1st before I get into Christmas cards. Well here it is, Catch you very soon. Hugs xx

    I'm so pleased you had a good holiday, it sounds lovely. Hubby and I went on a coach holiday to Belgium, I loved it, hubby didn't enjoy the travel as much as me but I loved being able to look at the scenery & sitting back and relaxing instead of driving
