Happy Christmas to each and every one of my blogger friends and those who visit my blog. Sending you all love & good wishes for the Christmas period.

First Impressions can tell it all...Just like a hall or entrance door can tell us a lot about a property/ resident/ home and the individual that lives there too. Is it neglected? Is it colourful? Is it adorned with pretty flowers?
Is it inviting? Is it hidden? Is it welcoming? What's your first impressions of these???

This evening I went through my bag of old greeting cards, mostly birthday cards which I have received over the years, I kept all the older ones and special ones, but cut up all the others. I am going to start making my own greeting cards from these cutouts. Here are some of the cutouts below

I also came across some birthday cards my mother sent to my dad before they were married, here is one of the prettier ones which I like, they are married almost 40 years now.

I also discovered this really old card which my great grandmother gave to my grandmother for her birthday. After a chat with my dad, he informed me that my great grandmother passed away in 1969 which means that this card has to be over 40 years old, it is so pretty with the blue ribbon on the side.

I'm really glad I rooted through all my old cards this evening, I came across alot of them which brought back many happy memories. I love receiving greeting cards :)
