The last week or so have been very challenging. In spite of studying Psychology for five years, dealing with a close relative with mental health issue is not easy. I lost my mojo and I found it extremely hard to concentrate on any crafting. However, I have managed to make the card above! It is tiny, and measures 2 3/4 inches square. stamped "Annie" and "Edward", 2 new Lavinia Stamps I got two days ago. (As ell as other stamps!) The star is also from LS. The wee cards are some new ones from LS. They are some of the new Scene Scapes cards from their new release. They have gorgeous backgrounds all ready printed, to stamp on. I love them! There are also some bigger sizes, as well as a new, absolutely adorable Scene Scapes pad of double sided paper. I know, I cold have taken photo's of all of those! Well, it's Friday (Fried-day!) and my brain is a bit fried today! Once I had stamped on the card, I backed it onto a piece of white SU cardstock. It reminds me of the old black and white photographs from years ago! Whoops! Showing my age here, lol! For those interested, I will be 68 in 13 days! Yippee, cake, champers and dancing for me! "Romeo-Valentino" was born the day before my birthday, so we share the celebrating! Ok, I recently bought a Postage Collage set of stencils and die from Waffle Flower. I have admired others cards made with these, (thank you Andrea!) and finally decided to get them. I think mine is the Snowman stencil. I've never used these type of things before, and I am really hoping I know what I am doing!
I have shed a lot of my recent stress, and even though my mojo still isn't quite back to normal, I am getting there. I have now sent all my Christmas cards, and just have a few left to hand deliver. I thank you for your patience while I navigate my way back to sanity! Thank you also to Andrea, who gave me some lovely positive feed back😊. Ok, that's me for today. Thanks for dropping by! Have a SUNSHINE day! Remember to always be your authentic self, and shine bright each and every day!
I love this sweet card, Sunshine! Being tiny makes it even cuter. :) I’m so glad you’re feeling less stressed and found some of your creative mojo. -Andrea
