Good Friends and Good Times

Before Christmas I went to Devon to see a friend and have a few days R&R.   Having left my job and being in the middle of working out what next it was great to receive an invitation for a few days away.  Scarily we first met about 37 years ago! 
Now anyone who lives in the UK or has heard anything about the weather here will know just how wet 2012 has been.  Devon and the West Country generally have taken an absolute hammering and the little town where my friend lives has had its fair share of issues.  The river has burst its banks more than a few times, chunks of the cliff have dropped off and the sea defences have to be improved.  Despite the problems the people of the town put a brave face on things and are extremely friendly.  We managed to get out all the days I was there and had a lovely time.  I also managed to get a lot of last month's blog hop cards done and my friend progressed her knitting.  We also went to see the Hobbit in the local cinema on its release night in the UK. 
This card is the one I sent to say thanks - she had to photograph it though as I forgot before sending it - what a friend!  I used a card and technique on Papercraft Planet as my inspiration along with the colours of her beautiful lounge.  The paper is Basic Grey and the snowflake is cut with my Cricut.

Thank you for checking in.  Have a great weekend.
