Pink flowers

It's been a while since I have posted anything. My mojo is definately MIA at the moment. I think trying to be the best teacher that I can be under the trying pandemic circumstances has taken a huge toll. Here in South African we are finally seeing a little light at the end of the tunnel, as schools are slowly moving back to what we knew pre-Covid. I cannot tell you how pleased I am about that. 

Anyway enough doom and gloom and onto the challenge at hand

Double D challenges have these beautiful pinks to motivate us


and here is my card


I stitched the panel during our hard lock down in 2020 but finally got around to assembling the card.
Initially I added three dots made with liquid pearls to the bottom right hand corner but they didn't work properly so I wiped them off. Of course this left a mark so I covered it up with a second strip of paper.

I will also be entering this at CAS on Sunday where it is

Pink crackers

 These are the crackers I made this year.

My tables was pink and red hence the colour scheme


I added guest size soaps as the gifts inside.
Christmas for us this year was nearly 2 weeks late as my sister contracted Covid and so we observed the quarantine period.  

Inspired by these lovely ones
