All Occasion Card Using Conie Fong Succulents & Cactus Bundle

Hello friends!  I hope everyone is doing well.  It is a busy time of the year; so please take care of yourself.  It is easy to get caught up in the holidays and neglect ourselves.  

I went out to drive my car last Sunday, because it is old and has to be driven at least weekly to keep the battery charged.  I had not planned on what happened next.  Lol!  I ended up at the beach and took a brief walk through the sand to the waters edge; which was really cold.  I then had lunch at one of my favorite seafood restaurants across from another beach.  I was gone almost 4 hrs.  It was a gorgeous day to get away.  I had not been to the beach in months or years.  I can't remember the last time I went and it was great to get away for a few hours.  I think I need to do a repeat of that day.  Lol!  

I created several cards before I started having issues with the smell from my markers.  I am trying not to color until I feel better; but it is hard.  This is one of my favorite - Conie Fong Succulents and Cactus Bundle.  It has 12 images and they are all gorgeous.  These can be used for any occasion.  

I sent out my Christmas cards early this year; due to the post office taking longer to process the mail.  That's when I heard that Canada postal service has been on strike for 3 weeks now.  There is no mail going in or out of Canada at this time.  I feel really bad for this interfering with the Christmas holidays.
