I've been a bit quiet the last few days, my mojo did go walk about for a while but I'm also working on something that I can't show you at the moment. My card today was made a the beginning of the week for my mum's good friend and nextdoor neighbour who turned 80 on Thursday. I then popped out and put it through her door so she would have it for her Birthday. I made it using Heartfelt Creations Country Cottage Collection for the Hydrangea and I used the Tea Time Collection for the backing papers. The stamp and Dies on the card where used for the first time so just right for entering this weeks challenge over at the Allsorts Challenge Blog, who are asking for Something Old, Something New and also the NBUS challenge which is a new challenge blog (NBUS stands Never Before Used Stuff). Previously this challenge has been held but through someones personal blog,now it has been set up as a challege blog. You just need to use something that has previously not been used, I'm sure that there are lots of us using unused stash at the moment.
Thank you for taking the time to look and your kind comments which are always appreciated.
Take care and stay safe
Sue

Beautiful card and I am sure you made her day with it! What a super hydrangea you have created...so realistic. x
This is soo pretty Sue!
Such a beautiful delicate background image and that hydrangea looks so much like the real thing. Wonderful and I'm sure it was appreciated.
What a lovely card Sue. The dimension on that beautiful big hydrangea is amazing. I'm sure the recipient loved it.
Good luck with your secret project. I think a lot of crafter's mojo's did a runner for a while. Hopefully, once we've adapted to the new way of life, they will return!

This is a beautiful card. I am in love with that hydrangea!
Stunning card, I am sure she will love it.
This is more of a gift than a card, Sue, and I'm sure your neighbor will keep it on display! That hydrangea looks as beautiful as a real one! Thank you for sharing at NBUS. I thought it would be more fun to make new graphics and give NBUS its own place rather than just have it hidden in the depths of my blog. Take care and be safe! Hugs, Darnell
Wow--that flower is gorgeous! What a great card!
Wow, this is beautiful Sue! Gorgeous hydrangea on a pretty background.
