Kits for lockdown or isolation – Don’t stop Crafting!!!

Hi everyone, I just wanted to say hello to you all and see how everyone is going?  Are you all crafting away if your in lockdown and isolation.  I have been busy in the craft room but still working as nurse.  My in house classes are now kit classes and will be doing some more videos and Facebook lives.

Today I saw a post in a card making group of a lady who is staying with her Mother and all her craft supplies at home.  I asked her if she could get a kit delivered to her Mother’s house that was reasonably priced and had everything included.  I was thinking about how some of my ladies who come to class don’t have craft supplies at home so I wanted to share a kit that is on the clearance rack.  All you need is a pen after purchasing the kit.  Totally fabulous for someone to take on the go as well.  It is on sale for $12.40 so a absolute bargain, to make 16 cards.

Hello baby elephant cards

Hi everyone, how are you today?  Im wanting to show you a few cards I have been making for new borns.  I was supposed to be doing a market but in the environment we live in it has been postponed to November, then we will make it Christmas market.  I need some baby cards and just love this little elephant.

For the first card I made a wobble using the same technique I used for the Birthday Bonanza toggle.  I chose natural colours for this card and then went onto do some coloured ones pictured below.  I stuck to a pastel theme and as soon as Ive finished blogging I will be making them in all colours.

How cute are the adorable Twins ❤

Seaside Spray and whisper white, very classic baby colours.

Purple posy and whisper white again super sweet colours for new borns.

I just want to reach out and say if anyone wants some fabulous craft interaction at this time, come and see me on Facebook, we have our group which is mainly class people but we do a lot of sharing and advice.

Thanks for stopping by the look at my cards, click on the images below if you wish to purchase something or even just clicking will take you to other ideas.

Have a lovely day everyone,

Hugs Lynsey xx

Easter 2020

I utterly love Flirty Flamingo the beautiful rich colour of the pink and especially against the blue.  How are you all doing in this awful pandemic.  I hope your all keeping safe.  If you like me and work in health then keep up the fabulous work my fellow crafty health care workers.

My in house classes are suspended until further notice, I posted a video on my Facebook page explaining my personal reasons but I haven’t stopped creating.   I have seen these bunnies online but I haven’t been able to work out the original source to give credit too.   I have used a couple of retired products and I am encouraging everyone in my group to show me your creations using what ever you want.

I hope you all stay safe, and remember its the last week of sale-a-bration so if you want to receive some free products head over here  to have a look at the specials or drop me a line.

Have a good weekend and stay safe everyone.

Hugs Lynsey
