Not Just Cards Challenge Blog - April Challenge - Anything Goes - New Home Card

Hello My Crafty Blog Friends and Visitors

How are you getting on? We are fine. My hubby is now on leave. It has been strange today. We are still shopping for two older couples and I am checking up on an older lady who lives on her own. That is a well as trying to sort out the shopping for my parents. It is so hard to get those shopping slots.

The April challenge starts today at the Not Just Cards Challenge blog the theme is always Anything Goes. I made a card that I won't be needing for a while.


I do like to have New Home cards in my stash. In fact our Daughter and Son-in-Law are thinking of moving and were looking into this before the Corona Virus caught up with us all.  When I was shopping with a friend (remember when we used to be able to do that) and I spotted and had to have a huge roll of washi tape with houses on it. That is what I used to create the background for this card. 


Why not join in with our fun easy challenge. If you click on the logo you will taken there. 


I used the Heart of Hearts die set from Creative Expressions to make the big heart and its mat. The house die set came free with a magazine a while ago. The sentiment was cut with some Britannia dies. 


Well I did enjoy making this card and making a start on the huge roll of washi tape. 

On a personal note last year for my birthday I received a journalling bible. Well I hadn't touched the bible since I was given it. I did say that I have been following the doodling sessions run by Barbara Gray on Facebook. I have a lovely skill set of drawing skills that I can call on and  I used them to start my journal. I am going to start a page on my blog with my sketches. This really is something I never thought I would do. 

I would like to enter the following challenges:

Stay safe and well. 

Happy Crafting

  3. Hi Jackie, firstly I do love the card you have made, washi tape can be a very useful thing to have.
    I hope you will share your journal with us just to give some idea, I haven't watched Barbara on FB once, I said I would but just didn't so it will be nice to see.
    Its so good of you to help neighbours, shopping and trying to get it is ridiculous, I despair at times but fingers crossed I only missed one week when I couldn't get a delivery.
