Do you sense a feeling of panic? My last chance to share another card using this stamp set. I wish it was staying – I love, love, love barbecues! Even in lock down, I don’t know where time goes! I find plenty to occupy my time, and yet time is running out and I haven’t […]

Slider Pop Up Card – Grace’s Garden
As we are into our eighth week of lockdown, we have progressed from “Stay at Home” to “Stay Alert”. The good news is that some shops like Garden Centres are now allowed to trade so long as social distancing at 2 metres apart is maintained. Just the time to break out Grace’s Garden stamp set! […]
