Some cards for my mother

For a couple of days I rather thought I would be making a dash back to Sydney because my mother developed pneumonia.  However my brother was visiting daily and he and my husband both assured me that they would let me know if I needed to return.  I also had daily bulletins on her progress, and she is recovering.  Fortunately they were able to care for her in the nursing home without sending her to hospital, though I left instructions that if she deteriorated at all they were to send her off immediately.

I made Mum a couple of cards.  The first one is a get well card, which I posted a few days ago.  Sorry the colours are a bit washed out in the photo - I took it in fairly bright sunlight through the window.


The second one is just to tell Mum I am thinking of her. I will post that today so that it arrives before I get home next week.  The stamps are part of a new set that arrived this week, and I love them.  They give a a little bit more variety to my cards.


Mum loves cards that I make for her - she still has the cards I have made since Christmas  pinned to the notice board in her room.
