Hello friends. I’m back with another of the sets in Clarity’s Barbara’s Big Blooms collection – this time I’ve gone with the A5 square Holly Leaves set.

Hello friends. There’s another heatwave on the way for the UK this weekend, so I decided to channel cooler thoughts with this week’s Christmas card (although I don’t think these snowflakes would last very long outside!)
