Congratulations to all the happy couples!
When I hear wonderful news like this, I must express my happiness by sending a card. Everyone likes post, especially when it's lovely post, and I like my friends to know I am thinking of them throughout these exciting times.
So I nipped down to malarkey (my favourite card shop - ever) to get something lovely for the soon-to-be-wed couples. But I had a little bit of time to prepare for the arrival of baby Samuel so I made a handmade cross stitch card!
What a beauty! It took 3ish hours to make (I'm new to cross stitch - though thoroughly loving it) but it's so worth it! It was also pretty darn easy to make - and quite relaxing to sit and copy a pattern on a Saturday afternoon... or on a train, as I did with the majority of this... there were a few looks. *ahem*.
I just like the thought that they'll know my time and effort went into it and hopefully that should make it an even nicer card than it already is!
I like putting myself out there for occasions. People will always remember who has been thoughtful at these times and a kind gesture is always appreciated.
Never underestimate the power of lovely post!
