So in this strange time, I seem to have a little less creative energy at the moment, in part because I have been feeling under the weather but also becuase my normal routines have been disturbed with children and husband spending more time around the house than normal!
However, to help myself I decided on a little mindfulness cutting out and as I am on a mission to use up this paper before it retires too…it was a perfect partner. The images are quite simple, so perfect if you are new to fussy cutting. The card makes use of the images at the side of the paper too – so you waste nothing from the paper. I love the warmth of the very vanilla in this paper too – hints of sunshine and cheeriness that are all too needed at the present time 🙂
The video and photo really don’t do justice to the glossiness of the paper… it is difficult to capture – but has a shine and texture that bring the images to life. The slight cut away adds another layer of interest too – hopefully the recipient will enjoy it too!
I am also rescheduling my videos to later in the day – a change is as good as a rest – and there seem to be so many competing videos early in the morning that I am going to schedule mine for a later slot….it also gives me time to catch up and get the blogging complete too during the day if I have not had chance! So I am going to be (pretty much anyway) sticking to my Tuesday, Friday Sunday schedule – with the occasional extras thrown in for good measure.
I hope you are staying safe and well and that you are managing your own mental health with some mindful activities too
