How are you all doing? Are you managing to get everything you need? We are fine we even did a bit of shopping last week for two older couples who aren't going out . The delivery slots are so difficult to get. We have told them to get in touch if they need anything else. On a positive note I have managed to get Attendance Allowance for both of my parents. My mum gets the higher rate and my dad the lower. The payments were backdated to when I phoned up and asked for the forms. Every little helps.
I don't know if you are like me but I am finding it very difficult to craft at the moment. If I do manage to make something I am usually not very pleased with it.
A little while ago I made this little feel better card.
I seached through my scrap box and found this background made with Distress Oxides that I had never used.
The banner was cut from a scrap of white glitter card. Both the banner and the sentiment are Crafter's Companion dies.
The splats/fireworks are the stamen from the Cornflower die from the John Next Door range. I have found that if you layer a 2½ wide strip across the middle of the die you get two small flowers and all the stamen. Because of this I had lots of stamen left over (I still have). I do like how they look on the card.
Is anyone else doing Barbara Gray's SHAC-Shack? It is at 10:00 every week day on Facebook. You sketch along with Barbara for an hour. I have done all of them and I can't believe what I have doodled so far. I have learnt so many tips and techniques already. The films are on YouTube as well.
I would like to enter the following challenges:
Stay safe and well.
Happy Crafting
