Life is like ...

Sorry, I haven't been around for a few days, I don't seem to have much enthusiasm for anything at the moment!  I did manage to have a play with my Stamperia Patchwork collection and make a couple of cards though.


I used several of the papers along with a frame and a fussy cut topper, I also fussy cut the little tea bag and the sentiment.  This is a fabulous collection, I am also in the process of creating a Mini Album with it, it's taking ages though!


Thank you for visiting my blog today, your company is much appreciated - please leave a comment so that I can come and visit you.

Such a pretty card Pauline. I know the feeling about not being so motivated. I think everything tends to take longer when you feel like that too. Look forward to seeing your completed mini book in time. Hugs, Shabneez x

I have felt the same way, Pauline! So I totally understand.

Your card is soooo cute. What a great tea cup and super papers. It has a warm and positive feel to it - something we both probably need. I want these papers!!! Hugz

I love the measuring tape around the top of this cup! What a cute card and perfect for those friends who enjoy sewing! I admit I'm slacking as well and don't visit/comment as often as I once did. I think we're allowed, so don't feel bad :)

This is gorgeous, Pauline, my mojo comes and goes as well, but you've done a fabulous job on this card! I love the teacup and I love the sentiment! Beautiful papers too!

I wish I managed to make something like this when not feeling for doing anything. Love the rustic feel!

Witchcrafted Life said...

The final dregs of winter can be a highly draining, challenging period at the best of times. Add in more than a year of contending with a global pandemic and it's beyond easy to see why so many of us are feeling like our mojo has gone MIA as of late.

I'm deeply sorry you are experiencing this, dear Pauline. Please know that my thoughts, revitalizing energy, and understanding are with you around the clock.
