I think my crafty time has come to an end...it's back to work for me this morning.
I know it's been a very strange time and the uncertainty of what's happening is so stressful. I've had good days and bad days but on the positive side - I have absolutely loved having the extra time with Tom and Emma. We've done schoolwork, baked cakes, grown bedding plants, sunflowers and tomato plants, artwork, sewing, and lots of walks. I miss my family (my Mum and Dad), and all the things we do but it has been great to have the time to be with my kids.
Anyway...card time... This is 'Polar Bear and Penguin' from Lee Holland.
I've coloured them with promarkers and the background papers are from Lili of the Valley - Frosty Christmas. I've used Spellbinders snowflake dies and a Marianne Creatables icicle die. The sentiment stamp is from Lili of the Valley.
I'd like to enter the following challenges:-
Christmas with the Cuties - Anything Goes with ribbon and bows
Crafty Hazelnuts Christmas - Anything Goes(Option include a bear)
Simon Says Stamp - Anything Goes
Fab n Funky - Christmas
I wonder if I can get through the day when I can't get to the biscuit tin...... Thanks for taking the time to visit my little blog today and for all your comments and encouragement.
