How are you getting on? I hope none of you have this nasty virus and that you can get the supplies that you need. What truly strange times we are living in. I am pleased that we are allowed out for exercise so I should still be able to walk. Recently we walked to our local Bronze Age burial mound. It is so strange that it is there. The mound is unimpressive when you see it but it has been there for a long time. There are some other paths and tracks I would like to investigate in the local area. I also have some seeds so I will be able to grow some flowers.
We wanted to lend a Beatles CD to our friends who are the Beatles fans. I also had a book to lend. So I decided to make a card to go with them. I have actually been finding it hard to craft. Which is strange as there is so much time, maybe that is the problem.
I wanted to make a pretty card with a lattice background. All the dies I used on this card are from the John Next Door range. I cut the lattice three times to make the background. I also cut the Ivy Spray four times.
I cut the Cornflower die four times in white. I made up the flowers and then I inked the edges with Distress Ink.
Because we love our friends and miss them I chose to use this sentiment.
You would not believe how many Snippets I used on this card. Everything apart from the mats and layers came out of my extensive collection of Snippets. It is strange but however much I use there always seems to be more.
You should have seen us deliver this we rang the door bell and ran away. What strange times we are living in. We did message our friends so that they knew it was there.
I would like to enter the following challenges:
Stay safe and well.
Happy Crafting

Very pretty, love the flowers. Thanks for joining us at The Unicorn Challenge Blog for our "Flower Power" challenge.
Wonderful card Jackie - I so love the zingy citrus look! And how right you are, it's called Parkinson's Law - the more time we have the more our tasks expand to fill that time. Right now I'm really struggling.
Hugs from afar
