Grandfather Xmas Card


                                         The weather in Perth is beautiful
                                         at present, so I have been very
                                         busy in the garden, So much to do!
                                         My intention is to have a beautiful
                                         garden for Christmas, but it is a
                                         lot of work. I've certainly used up
                                         a lot of calories the past few days!
                                         The card I have made is for my Aunty,
                                          who bedridden and is cared for in a
                                         nursing home, she is in a bad way and
                                         I'm not sure if she will make it to
                                         Christmas. The man in the photo is her
                                          father taken in 1913, Hector Coyne was
                                          his stage name. I made it with some SB
                                          paper and the poinsettia die cuts.
                                          I am entering this in the Make-it-Monday
                                          Challenge#65-Always anything goes
