On a completely different note, what is going on with blogger and the pictures on my blog? I usually set them at 'X Large', but all my pictures are now squashed within the central panel and distorted so I've had to change them to 'Large' to get the perspective right. Hopefully when you click on them they still open in a larger window so you can see them clearly. Is anyone else having this problem?
Maybe it's the heat - phew it's been rather hot here for the last few days. A little too hot for my liking, now I know we tend to moan whatever the weather but it goes from one extreme to another. I'm a middle of the road kinda gal and would just like a warm, dry spell if the powers that be are listening :)

Gorgeous card, lovely image. I'm with you on the heat, low 20's is enough for me. I haven't had any blogger probs thank goodness
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous Christmas card Lorraine!! I absolutely adore that image, snowmen are so fun for the holidays. The soft colours with the pops of red really create a subtle yet festive feel on this one! Love it! hugs :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a cheerful card Lorraine...love that image,the red really makes it pop.....xxxxxx
ReplyDeleteYour card is totally gorgeous. I love it! Super cute image and so beautifully done. Love the black and white with a touch of red.
ReplyDeleteI have no problem seeing your cards and when I click on them I can see them in a larger version. I don´t have a problem with the size of my cards on my blog (I also put them on XLarge), but I don´t like that my pictures becomes unsharp as soon as I put them on my blog. This only happens on blogger :(
Hugs, Lisa
Such a beautiful Christmas card! I love the colour combo and your beautiful design.

Hi Lorraine,
ReplyDeleteoooooooooooooo! I love this wonderful card.
The overlay acetate is great, and those images are just so very lovely, and cute.
Not good with the heat also.
Not noticed prob with blogger pics yet.
Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.
WOW! I adore this image and the acetate is a brilliant compliment!
ReplyDeleteThe acetate overlay on your card looks fabulous and together with the restricted colour palette makes for a very stylish design :-)
ReplyDeleteI have no idea what Blogger might be up to with your photos but am happy to say that they still look great set to 'large' and yes, if I click on them it opens up larger...so it's all ok I think!
Big hugs, Kat xx
Hi Lorraine a beautiful Christmas card, super image and great overlay too.
ReplyDeleteAs for your blog I don't know if yours is the same as mine but I can change the perimeters in your settings to make columns wider, maybe that might help?
I'm enjoying the sunshine but don't spend much time in it. As long as it isn't raining I am happy.
Have a super weekend, hugs Erika. x
This looks so professional. Your layering is gorgeous and really makes that decoupage image shine.
