Hello again,
Welcome to 2021, may this year be a Happy, safe and healthy year for all of you and your loved ones. I hope to be able to spend more time crafting and in blogland this year, although that may depend on the physio and how my body reacts to it and the travel involved getting there and back.
We have begun this year with new Covid rules here in NSW, we all must wear a face mask in any indoor places, shared cars, public transport etc. with a $200 fine for no compliance. I think today in the Sydney basin there were 3 cases of community transmission, related to a patient transport worker who transported a returning passenger from overseas. I don't think that I would have believed if someone told me that I would enter a bank wearing a mask and get served without the security screens being activated.
I hope you have all had a wonderful, if quiet Christmas and New Year. I have already made a start on this years Christmas cards, with some lovely new Australian papers and dies. These will be kept aside to head over to our English and Scottish relatives at the other end of this year. I have used up several scraps of various silver papers, I think I like the mirror card ones best. Birds featured- Pink Galah, White Cockatoo, Laughing Kookaburra and Currawong
I have also found and had the time to ink up the Clearly Besotted stamp and die combo I won in Di's Snippets Playground Christmas draw in 2019, it went missing when our ceiling leaked all over my craft cupboard and I only found it again in the last few weeks.... so my Christmas card count is off to a good start, 5 cards in one week...
What I used:-
4x 12.6x 17.8cm (C7) card blanks
Francheville Designer Squares 'Jocelyn Proust' Australian Wildlife paper (Spotlight)
Silver paper/card scraps
Various scrap papers to co-ordinate with the patterned papers
