Craftyduckydoodah Review of 2020 - part 1

Hello and welcome to part one of my review of 2020.  I have been doing these review posts for a couple of years now and find it useful to look back and remember what I have been up to.  Originally I intended to do just one post but in true Craftyducky style, more is best!

January saw the start of Sale-A-Bration (SAB) with lots of free goodies with every £45 order.  This particular stamp set proved very popular - who does't love a cheeky meerkat or two?

January saw my lovely Coffee & Cards ladies making calendars using one of my favourite stamp sets - Poppy Moments and some free SAB DSP for the background.

The good news is, its almost time for SAB 2021!  If you haven't got copies of the new Spring/Summer and Sale-A-Bration brochures let me know - there are so, so many beautiful new products launching on the 5th of January.

February Birthday Bonanza!  I loved making these two projects; I loved the colours in the DSP and the characters made it so easy to create cute cards for young and old alike.

I held my first Pick & Mix craft day at the beautiful All Saint's Church in Hartford towards the end of February.

Good company, lots of crafty project options and an amazing lunch made for a perfect day!

Lots of different projects on offer (hence the name), this little wreath decoration was the most popular!

March
Well, what can I say about March?  It started off ok and then the world turned to chaos with the arrival of Covid-19.

I was delighted to be approached by a lady who was writing an article for a French craft magazine who had seen this project.  Of course I gave her permission to share my work!

March saw what was to be my last in person workshop of 2020.  This workshop was so popular that I ran it 3 times before the UK went into lockdown.  I even have two ladies who are still waiting for their workshop to take place!

March was also the last time this year that I was able to hold a craft session at a local care home.  I certainly miss all the lovely residents but fear it will be some time still before we can craft together again.

This is Pat who is one of my favourites.  I have been keeping in touch with her and others, sending cards and little treats and I know they miss crafting too.

And finally, at long last I was able to find a replacement for my pink craftyducky.  The poor thing was slightly faded on one side after I left her in the conservatory and then to add insult to injury, she had an accident with her crown!  I was so relieved to find another!

I hope you have the best Christmas possible wherever you are in the world and that you stay safe and well.

I will be back on the 28th with a cute project for the final Stampers Showcase blog hop of 2020.
