Good Morning to you All, I hope you are already for the Christmas celebrations. Our challenge for this week is New year, I dont normally make New year cards I do however make a few Hogmanay cards for my Family and friends that are up in the highlands. So ive made a couple for this weeks challenge. ive used my own template to make the Kilts, and a Gealic sentiment. Lang may yer lum reek, which roughly means long may your chimney smoke. sounds funny i know, its an old custom to give a piece of coal when you visit someone for good luck.
our sponsor for this week is

I want to wish you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy Hogmany

These are brilliant Kevin. I bought some Tartan card and some sprigs of heather to do some cards so you have given me some inspiration. Have a good one Kevin.

As someone of Scottish descent, I was thrilled to find your cards. They are simply gorgeous. Can you tell me where you purchase your plaid paper? I am located in the USA. You have such talent!
