Pop-Up Insert Card

Afternoon peeps. Lovely and sunny here today but I am told by others in my apartment block that it is a very cold wind.
My card today is using some of the new set of dies that I bought last Sunday.

Strumin' Sidney(Tony)

Good afternoon folks. Well the snow hasn't arrived yet that was promised, it will probably wait for me to go shopping tomorrow and Friday. It is always bad weather when I have my two shopping days. Lol!!

Today's card is for my hubby's 72nd birthday(he is a lot older than me) Lol!! I will add the insert and more to the front of the card when he isn't about. He is always at my elbow and if I put too much more on the front now he will guess it is for him. I have until the middle of April.

Special Niece - Jennifer

Afternoon peeps. The sun is trying to peep through here at the moment and so far we haven't had the next spate of snow that was promised. My card today is another commission from the lady in my apartment block but this one is staying in England but she still doesn't like them too big or bulky if she is posting it.

Special Daughter-in-Law

Hi sweeties. Hope you are all well. We have just had our first snow fall here in Hertfordshire UK. More is expected in some areas tomorrow. My card today is a commissioned one from a lady in my apartment block. It is going to Australia so I had to keep it as flat as possible. Not sure if she will be pleased about the hat?
