I have though made a couple of cards (who got new stash for Christmas then????😁😁)
The ones made with the new stash will be shared as soon as the light allows - weather here is typical grey skies/drizzly rain and misty!
So in true 'Blue Peter' tradition - here's one I made earlier!
Another quick card - which was specifically made so I could use the sentiment as someone I know has had some bad news about a family member and now needs to make and store as many memories as they can in the coming weeks.
Purple shades are also not a colour I use very much but I like the blending of these - Shaded Lilac, Picked raspberry and Wulted Violet.
The Dandees are by Lavinia, heat embossed in white.
Blogland understandably is very quiet at the moment!
I have busied myself getting ahead with some DT makes so I won't be rushing last minute.
I hope you all had a lovely Christmas and thanks for visiting! x

A belated Merry Christmas and it sounds like you had a relaxing Christmas and I hope you enjoyed using your new crafty stash.
This is a lovely card, gorgeous colours and I love the poinsettia card in the previous post.
Best wishes for the New Year,

Beautiful. Beautiful purple.
Wonderful card Viv, lovely shading of the purples with the fabulous dandelions and sentiment xx
OOh I like this Viv...though it sounds like it could be sad occasion that prompted it's creation. You can't have been lazy if you have been crafting! My craft room is closed till......probably new year....jigsaws waiting!...and knitting....and cross stitch...oh and feeding hubby in between...lol! xx
I love the purple tones on the background and how you used white for the flowers, for a softer look. From your description your card seems to fit the occasion you made it for.
Beautiful card
Colour is perfect with the white embossing and for the sentiment. Sounds very much like our Christmas. Quiet and caught up on a lot of tv programmes we had stored up to watch. I have one card to make for a gd assignment so need to get going on that. Hugs Mrs A.
Lovely CAS design Viv and the sentiment is beautiful. I'm sure it will be appreciated by the recipient. xx
A really gorgeous background and a really lovely stamp. No new stash for me apart for a paper pad.

A lovely and thoughtful card, background is just right. Look forward to seeing what you make with your new stash. Dark and dreary here too, might try to make a card or two to lighten the day once I've put the Christmas stash away.
Love your card Viv and the colour is so pretty..We had a houseful Christmas day but nice and peaceful now!

Love that Dandelion stamp Viv, it's so beautiful blended in purples :)
A quiet, relaxing and wonderful Christmas my end Viv and I am playing catch up after being away and catching up on jobs x. Such a beautiful and thoughtful card x.

Lovely creativity...Popping in to say Happy New year and thanks for being a great crafting on line friend.xx
I adore that mix of colours Viv and a great sentiment to go with those pretty dandelion clocks. Why is it when there are masses of them in a field we love them but when they pop up in our lawns we curse them...lol. I'm looking forward to seeing lots more of wonderful creations throughout 2020...it has a good ring to it doesn't it. x
I love the gorgeous simplicity of this design Viv, and I bet the recipient was moved that you made it for them.
I hope you had a lovely Christmas and that 2020 brings all that you hope for.
Hugs
