My Card
Recipe
7" x 5" white base card
lemon pearlescent card - from stash
image - Birdhouses LOTV
e/f - Spellbinders
banner die - Sue Wilson
sentiment - rub on (extremely ancient stash!)
This was last weeks' card for my sister. My brain seems to have gone into lock down too because my mojo is definitely not doing very well right now and my cards are all fairly simple.
The post is taking longer to get to it's destination but I do understand why because my postman explained. Their work stations are so close together that it is not safe for them. Instead they have split and half of them come in for the early morning hours to do some sorting and when they go out on their rounds then the the rest of the staff come in to finish off the sorting and then go out later. Obviously it is now not possible for them to sort all the mail before they leave and that is one of the reasons why it is delayed. Plus absenteeism for people self isolating etc. At least that is the new temporary system in my area. I know some people are complaining but these people are carrying on working for our benefit and we should be thanking them and all the others - shop assistants, pharmacies etc, - for putting themselves at risk for us.
Why not pop over to the blog and check out what the rest of the team have made for teh challenge.
Take care and stay safe.

ReplyDeleteThis is a lovely cheerful card. My mojo has done a hike and not left me any instructions on how to carry on without her. Will certainly be giving her a piece of my mind when she does reappear!! Hugs Mrs A.

Hi Christine, your card is beautiful, I love these LOTV toppers and your design is so pretty, I'm sure your sister will love it.
ReplyDeleteOur post is okay, and we have a lovely little lady postie, and I think she is expecting so doubly grateful for her.
I've no time for complainers these days, our Keyworkers are doing a marvellous job keeping the country ticking over, a much better job that the governments. Keep safe, Kate x
Very stylish!
