How are things going for you? As I said last week things aren't much different for us. My hubby is still working from home. We are still shopping for a few people. I am growing so many things in our garden. Later on we will be able to have a salad! There are also lots of birdy visitors. We haven't appreciated our garden as much before. I am so glad that we have it.
A lot of you will know that I have been following the Doodle sessions that Barbara Gray does every weekday at 10:00 am on Facebook. Later they can be found on YouTube. I have been inspired to make a few cards that I have drawn the images for. This is the first one. I needed a thinking of you card for a lady from church whose husband died. He did have Covid 19 but it was his underlying health conditions that were the problem.
I made the lovely background paper. I found it when I was tiding. I have no idea how I made it. I would really like to make some more.There are a few sheets left. The candy in the corners is made with the Cogs dies from the John Next Door range.
I used my Double Pierced circle dies to draw the circle. This meant that after I had cut the circle out I could easily used another of the dies to cut a mat for the image. The pattern in the circle is one that we learnt when doodling. I drew the seed heads and leaves first with pencil and them with a Micron pen. Once everything was dry I used Distress ink with a brush to colour the image. I also used Distress ink to paint the border.
I hope the lady, I sent this too, liked it. I have no idea how she is coping. I think I will be making a few of these cards.
I hope you have a good week.
Happy Crafting
