GRATEFUL! This word was on my mind as I celebrated my birthday on December 24 and Christmas day. I am so grateful for blessings too many to count.
On my desk for WOYWW, the weekly show and tell link party I have joined all through out 2012, are Christmas and birthday presents that I have yet to put away. Here is a special pop-up birthday card from my son that I thought you would enjoy...
The year is coming to a close, and next Wednesday it will already be 2013! It's a good time to look back on this year's blessings and the challenges we have survived. I am grateful!
My dear blog friends and visitors, may the blessings of the Christmas season be yours all through out the coming year!

Grateful indeed, there is so muc to be grateful for in my life. I love the card...if you deconstruct it , it probably wouldn't be too hard to replicate for someone with a lot more patience than I! The box of ink and nibs is beautiful...another direction for your artistic skills?
Fabulous card, and what wonderful presents. I'm happy to take any unwanted ones off your hands!
Happy WOYWW and a very happy new year,

Happy Christmas Peggy and belated birthday wishes!
I love the pop up card!
I'd forgotten it was Wednesday til I switched the computer on but of course I wouldn't miss out our fun for all the world even if life is pretty manic at ours today :-)
I've done the early prep that I can do for the party later[quiche, icing of buns, cooking of mini sausages etc] so there is just the last minute bits to go in the oven now. Now enjoying a quick bit of blog hopping and a coffee :-)
So glad to hear you had a wonderful birthday and Christmas day.

Happy Birthday to you and Lord Jesus! What a time to have your birthday!!! It must be a doubly special time in your house and family.
Your son's card is fantastic and he certainly shows he has inherited some of your creative talent.
Lots of love jo x
Genius pop-up card, and that looks to be an absolutely beautiful calligraphy set! Belated happy birthday, and wishes for a lovely continuing festive season, as well as a happy WOYWW!

#1 spot for your birthday, how grand isthat?

Merry Christmas!
I can't help but notice that you got a glass nib pen... I just bought one with my birthday money and LOVE it! You'll have so much fun, it's just a novelty to write with it and I've done some cool drawings (you get either a very very fine line, or by leaning it on the side you get half-controlled thick lines of ink).
What a super card. Belated birthday greetings and a Happy Christmas and new Year. Anne x #54
Ooh wasn't sure what the box of nibs were till I saw butterfly's comment...calligraphy ? Cool! Love the card. happy belated birthday and Happy New Year! Nan 44

A very happy belated birthday, Peggy! What a gorgeous pen and ink set that is, with the beautifully decorated box, and as for your son's card, well, that's just stunning! You must be thrilled with it. I hope you had a lovely day, and also a great Christmas.
