A Saturday Sharing…

Hello hello! Grace here.

I hope this finds you well, feeling balanced and calm… and perhaps even crafty.

Just when you think you’ve been hit by the last of the waves, another one comes for ya! Hold your breath! I have a pretty rough bout of COVID at the moment. Rough is a bit of an understatement, but this too shall pass. And the year shall start to look a little brighter soon! Perhaps if we get all of this sadness and sickness out of the way in the first chunk of the year, the Spring & Summer will be just glorious!

I dragged my sorry behind to my computer and spent a happy afternoon gathering your artwork and getting some work done. Please make it worth my while and enjoy these absolutely INCREDIBLE cards I found this week on Clarity Worldwide and Groovi Worldwide. My top faves of the week! I’m sure you’ll agree. Got a cup of tea or coffee? Good.
Let’s enjoy these works of art together…

Such insanely great artwork! Every card spoke to me, for one reason or another, and is a card I would be more than chuffed to receive. Wouldn’t you?

“That’s a framer!”

I hope you’ve enjoyed this little Saturday artwork gallery. I’m going to go and rest a bit and hopefully, this will clear soon. I hope you have a wonderful weekend, whatever it is you’re up to. Stay safe!

Don’t forget that the super talented Tina Cox will be on Create and Craft this afternoon, at 1pm & 5pm. Not to be missed! It’s going to be an epic show, with some of the BEST Groovi plates. Hope you’ll join us!

And a very cool Sunday blog tomorrow too…

Travel gently, friends.

Lotsa love, Grace xo

    Dearest Grace thank you so much for choosing these wonderful cards when you are feeling so poorly but hopefully they cheered you up. As usual the parchment cards are just amazing and blow me away. It was also nice to see Gills take on the fabulous tutorial that Jane did – I really must give that a go. Hope you feel better soon – the Gray family really have been through the mill one way and another but things can only get better. xxxx

    Grace, so sorry to hear that you are poorly with covid. Hope you recover soon. I had it in September and nothing I want to repeat. I think you must be at a low ebb with your grandad passing and the worry about your mums illness. Thanks For putting this beautiful artwork on here and hope that now you can have a bit of a rest to recover, xx

    So sorry to hear you too are now unwell. You are a chip of the old bloc as you don’t give in as you didn’t want to disappoint the crafters who had submitted inspirational artwork. Hoping you soon start to improve.

    So sorry to hear you have covid Grace. I got it three weeks ago. I played golf in the morning and was absolutely fine then about an hour later I was shaking uncontrollably and thought I was starting with flu. The next day I decided to test and was a very definite positive result. To all intents and purposes it has been just like having flu – none of the original symptoms like breathing difficulties, loss of taste or smell etc so it was obviously one of the latest mutations of the disease (and having all the jabs must have helped). It’s definitely something you have to treat with respect and rest as long as you need to and don’t try to do anything too soon. I hope it doesn’t take you too long to get back on your feet. PS lovely choice of cards this week. Take care xx

    So sorry to hear you’ve got Covid, so far we’ve avoided it but feel it will get us one way or another at some stage. Hope I get it and not hubby though because of underlying stuff. I think I have a sniffle – too much time with little people this week.

    Lovely cards as usually, well done everyone, a couple I hadn’t spotted on the FB pages too.

    Hope you feel better soon. Just read about your Mum’s great news this morning ! Hat to the ready ! X

    Such beautiful artwork again Grace. I hope you are feeling improved by now if not better. I think your immune system must be very low with all that’s been going on in your family. It’s a new week and a bright day here in England – I’ve just been on the Clarity Sale and completed my first order. When I’ve more time to sit and browse I shall be going back again (hubby thinks my order is complete he he he).
    Stay safe and do as your Mummy says – Travel Gently xxxx
