Mental well-being

Woke up this morning and went outside to find aircraft spraying chemicals, two or three in the sky, Boris did warn us that he would be spraying a disinfectant and to keep our doors and windows closed. I don't know if i believe this, but what ever it was, I kept my doors and windows closed anyway. At this moment in time it would be quite easy for us to let our minds get carried away, if you have read George Orwell's 1984 you would understand. So to keep my mind healthy, crafting is the perfect antidote, using the creative side of the brain helps us to unwind and not think of things that we cannot change. Having Occasions to craft for and look forward to is a good excuse to get creative. So i've lined up a few I made for mothers today, with close ups and I will follow with a product list.

 Hero Arts Coffee Love Stamps and Dies

Altenew Big and bold alpha

I thoroughly enjoyed making these and I always find beautiful colour schemes on Pinterest, if you need colour combo's search for decorating colour schemes it also works well for card-making.

And before I go here's another in the same tones and colours.

Stay well and stay indoors xx

Mothers Day Ideas

Sometimes when im going through a creative streak I can make and make until I burn out. This was true when I was making my mothers day commissions, I just had idea after idea, then i felt a slump where i could not create no more.

This is just one of my favourites and I will post the others that I made, I used Big bold alphabet from Altenew with some gorgeous card from sizzix, and the big thanks also from Altenew, I really enjoyed doing this one and the person who received it was over the moon.

Hopefully be back later with more Bye for now 

Happy Mail

Hello hope you are having a good afternoon on this a dreary day, but i hope my next post brightens it up a little for you as i am totally excited about Lawn Fawn stamps at the moment, and i am also playing with Altenew as well which are totally genius for clean and simple fun cards.

This card is from the set Happy mail, correct me if im wrong and it also includes scripty sentiments. In the background i have used Argyle back drops which im loving as it goes well in any color. For a change im giving you the close up first.

 

Hope you love this card as much as i do thanks for stopping by
