Use your scrappy strips or is that strippy scraps?

 Hi there.  My friend Suna chose the challenge at our local swap group.  And what a fun one.  Use up some of those scrappy bits we all seem to hoard.

I have a couple of baggies full of scraps and a couple of little containers with stamped and die cut bits and bobs.   I grabbed a real variety of scraps.  Some Christmas papers, some with foil, a strip of gold card -   quite an eclectic mix.  To make it a bit  cohesive I die cut the panel and ran it through my Cuttlebug with a swirl embossing folder.    My flower and leaves were in my container of pre-stamped and cut images as was my little hello die.  All I needed was to white emboss the sentiment onto a little scrap of black card.  Carol let me know it had arrived today and it was so lovely and bright on such a dull dreary day.   Glad it brightened her day. 

Auckland is into week 5 of our Lockdown level 4.  Hopefully we will have a lowering of the levels next week - not that Level 3 will be much of a change.  I will still have to work from home and shops can't open - cafes and restuarants are click and collect only - any sort of contactless sales.  I missing hugs from my little grandie.... we have been video calling her every few days.  The other day she read us her favourite story with help from her Daddy... not bad for just over 2 1/4.   

Isn't she so cute
