Mothers' Day cards

Good morning! The weather seems to have quietened down, and I seem to have got my crafting mojo back. 

Yesterday was Mother's Day, and these are the two cards I made - one for my Mum and one for my Mother-In-Law.

Both use Hunkdory Peony Dreams collection, which I think came out in 2019. The first one was for my Mum. The topper is from "Blossoming Dreams", and the sentiment from "A Lovely Day". And I used a bit of pink Core'dinations, ribbon and pearls.

The second was for my Mother-In-Law, and this time the topper is from "A Lovely Day" and the sentiment from "Blossoming Dreams".  And, of course, a bit of Core'dinations card, ribbon and pearls.

Take care, and happy crafting!

A week ago...

A week ago, things began to change. I was scrambling to get to grips with how we were going to deal with setting school "work" from home, and watching the new avidly for any updates. A week on, and things are starting to settle into this new and bizarre reality. I have had good days and bad days. I have planned and prepared for my class out there in cyberspace. And I have tried - not always successfully - to switch off from work and from the news, having gone from watching all day every day, to switching it on now and then. I still don't feel in any sort of routine, and I had so many creative things planned for the week - but in the end, I didn't really feel like doing them.

And then, last Sunday was Mothering Sunday. Like a huge part of the population, neither of us could see our Mums, although I had popped in to see mine and drop things off on the Thursday.

Then in the whirlwind of the week, I forgot to share the cards I made. So, here they are.

This one was for my Mum, using Hunkdory Sending you Love - A Gift for you - topper and backing card. 

And this one was for my mother-in-law - using the same Hundory topper and card set.

Am hoping next week will settle more into a routine - and I will be able to do some more creative things.

Stay safe,
