John Denver

Occasionally I like to listen to you tube while I am browsing the internet and reading all your lovely blogs. At this very moment I have John Denver singing to me in the background. I love his voice and have done since I was about fifteen. I've always loved country music stars and never tire of listening to the likes of Dolly Parton, John Denver and all the old classic singers.  I'm not so fond of the  'hoe down' kind of music but there are one or two that I quite enjoy. Today I have a friend coming over for a games session.I think I will put one of my John Denver cd's on the player. We can play dominos and Rumikub while John gently sings his beautiful songs. Bu,t before that, I plan to make a few more cards. I have been making Christmas cards and Birthday cards for my stash. Yesterday I cut loads of backing papers for my cards. I have a stash of beautiful wallpaper samples and they have made perfect backing papers for layering onto cards. I discovered that the little dies that I use for cutting greetings work really well with the wallpaper samples. I am planning on cutting a few 'Happy Birthday and Merry Christmas's while I am in die cutting mode. Later today I will share a couple of pictures of the cards that I have made recently.

Here's a little John Denver tune to brighten your day. Close your eyes while you listen...…..

  5. Another John Denver fan here. He wrote so many great songs and had a wonderful voice. After the circumstances of his death, I find a lot of his tunes make me teary.

    Looking forward to seeing your cards. Great idea to make them ahead!

  7. Thanks for reminding us about John Denver. I listened to him whilst card making this afternoon. I felt quite teary eyed about some of the lyrics especially as he is no longer with us. I look forward to seeing the cards you have been making Cherie.
