I have something different to show you today and it is the card my Mum painted for us. We are so impressed with it. I wonder how she knew of my love for snowmen! 😂😂⛄☃
In February my Mum decided to learn to paint with acrylics and had four 2 hour lessons. Bear in mind my Mum is 88 and hasn’t painted since she left school at 15. Then came lockdown so she decided to teach herself using a book and Youtube. We have been amazed at how much she has improved from her first painting. This card will be one to treasure.

Well done to your Mum, that is such an achievement
What an enterprising lady. Obviously not somebody who will let a situation get her down. Amazing to think after all those years she returned to something and has done amazingly. This is a card to be brought out every year Marianne.! Take care Christine x
Well done Marianne's Mum - obviously it runs in the family! - love the textured scarf!
