At this very strange time in our lives, I find myself living with adult children and grandchildren, while my home is in isolation with family who have recently returned from overseas. We are pleased to offer our home, but as we fall into the vulnerable category, and they had to self isolate we are grateful to be able to live with other family members.
That brings my crafting to a somewhat limited range and I grabbed a couple of items that I thought would offer me lots of opportunity for variety. I've been wanting to use the lovely Botanical Prints Product Medley for a while as I'm fascinated with the beautiful stamped images included in the kit, but I also wanted to utilise some of the prepared images and cut outs that come with the product medley.
The first card I made uses some of the beautiful designer papers included in the medley.
I fussy cut the paper in the foreground after colouring select images with Stampin' Blends. The stripes are from another design from the DSP.
The greeting is from the Botanical Prints Stamp set that is included in the product medley, and it has been stamped with Memento Black onto one of the die-cut accents included in the kit.
One of my favourite accents is the copper coloured metal bees. They are so cute and add a lovely finishing touch to the cards.
In between helping with home schooling of a year 3 and year 7 student and playing lots of games with the children, I didn't get as much done as I thought. However I really enjoyed the time with family, so there are always some positives to come from any situation.
If you'd like to purchase any Stampin' Up! products on-line, you can do so via my website
or
you can email or phone me and I'll place the order for you.
Stay safe everyone!

edited to note I am now home with access to my computer and craft room. Family is safely through isolation - yay! so I will be posting all all the cards I made with the suite while I was away.
