4 cards made today, all decoupage, one an oriental birthday card and 3 Christmas cards

I have spent a very enjoyable Saturday crafting 4 decoupage cards, I find cutting the decoupage out so relaxing, then I made them up into 4 cards.

     The first card is an oriental birthday card, am really enjoying this theme right now on 8" x 8" cards.

 
                                               This first Christmas card is 6" x 6"



                                                           This second card is A5
                                                       
 
The last card is A6

Just made one card this week

On Tuesday this week, we received a handwritten thankyou note for the handmade wedding card I made for hubby's workmate for his wedding 3 1/2 weeks ago, so glad they liked it.

Due to poor health and being in a lot of pain, I've barely crafted this week, but I have managed to make one birthday card, its the first of 10 I need to make for a customer. I used decoupage & backing paper sent in a recent craft goodybag swap and all other elements of the card are from my stash.
