I hope that you are all prepared for the cold weather that has been forecast, maybe the colours I have used here will remind you to keep your winter woollies to hand!
I don't send nearly as many Thank You cards as I used to - I usually send a text message these days but one of the people who gave me a gift this Christmas definitely doesn't text! For once I'm keeping it (fairly) simple!

Love the simplicity of this Chris, the use of the Circular Gelli plate really envelops what lies within and draws the eye. Don't forget to enter the Feeling blue Challenge over at That's Crafty it will fit in just perfectly! Warmest of wishes and even warmer for next week!!
Hugs Tracey xx
Beautiful card Chris. I love the colors. It feels like winter, but beautiful winter. And glad you had a great visit with friends. It sounds like you've had a few fun days. Hugs-Erika

Have a good start into the new week ahead!
So simple yet so effective (and not simple as you still had to work out what to do and how to do it.
Hand-written and hand-made thank-you cards are prized, I know, as I had two after Christmas which were most welcome.
That's a super background for the stamp you used. A wonderful thank you card Chris.

I always love seeing your cards, because they are mailable. This is a beautiful card, even though you consider it simple. I have a big Gelli plate and don't care for it. Looks like your stamping prowess extends to the Gelli, too. What a great way to use it.
Would love to join you in the Lake District. It sounds like a great outing.
Cute card indeed!
Your card is so beautiful! The image is fabulous . Thank you so much for sharing with us at Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge. :)

That is such a pretty thank you card! Love it! I am one of those who still sends thank you cards. Just can't bring myself to send an email or an ecard. Still send an "official" in-the-mail thank you even if I had emailed them to let them know it arrived and I was thrilled--LOL!
Happy Monday!! :)
Sometimes simple says it all and well ♥
Gorgeous card Chris. Clean and stylish. Happy creative week, Angela xXx
A wonderful piece of art, Christ.
