Grandad's Christmas card
(come New Year card/frame)
No Christmas box this
year as my dad (aka Grandad Leigh) is not coming over to visit this year
because he's in the middle of moving so his presses will have to wait until the
new year. We thought we'd make a more post-friendly collage card instead. Eilir
chose pictures from old cards and cut them out. He rejected most of the ones I
picked (the only one making the final cut being the goose that he deliberately
stuck upside down). He did the gluing and chose the tinsel border, but
couldn't be bothered with attaching it, so I got to do all the stapling. He
wanted tinsel borders on both sides, so we decided to make it multipurpose and
made the flip-side a photo frame with a New Year message underneath (we were
also hedging our bets here in case it didn't arrive in France in time for Christmas!).
Our excuse is that New Year cards are more the French tradition for festive
card giving anyway ;-)
