Card Making in January

My life has taken a busy detour just now so I am unable to blog as often as usual.  My 'free' time is constrained so I am taking advantage of spare time at the weekends to enjoy making cards or other 'mindless' activities purely for enjoyment.

I used various techniques to produce the cards above and am pleased with their simplicity.

  5. These are lovely, Simone. However, I would argue that creating them was not mindless at all. Indeed quite the opposite. I recently watched this TED talk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CsbdCVZ-Z6U regarding taming the mind with zentangle. Remember how we were doing this "doodling" a few years back? Sewandsowlife has just posted ideas for relaxation. I would add creating small beauties like your cards to her list. In creating them I hope you gained as much joy as anyone would in receiving them. Happy Monday and week ahead.
