Thank you all for your sympathy over the phone mis-hap! Luckily:
I am sure you're not surprised that my screen saver is Kew!
also, the goodies arrived last week too...and I used one of them on a birthday card
(I know,another one!)
I need to get this written and in the post in the next few days
Julia is also thinking about the WOYWW 11th anniversary - her post here
in case you missed it has some ideas.
Now to find a project to work on!
Till next week, happy WOYWW, stay safe!

Morning Helen. So glad your phone is up and running again. They might be talking about easing lockdown, but who knows... we might be in this situation for some time yet! More projects finished wouldn't be so bad would it?? I'm loving that background - both the one on your phone, and also the one for the birthday card. It's gorgeous. Well done.
Take care of yourself. Stay safe. God bless.

Love the new goodies Helen and that background is lush. It sets off the silhouette of the flowers on the card perfectly. Glad your phone is back and fully working again. Stay safe and happy WOYWW. Sarah #5
So glad the phone is fixed, loving the diecuts on your page. Thanks for the visit BJ#2
Now I could make good use of those new goodies too Helen, what fab sets WoywW can be a dangerous game when fellow bloggers share goodies like these. Looking with one eye again!! Fabulous card, how striking do those white flowers look against your background. Happy WoywW & yes I need to make some space on my desk for sure, so difficult whilst sharing it with my Daughter right now.
Stay Safe ((Hugs)) Tracey xx
Glad to hear your phone is OK again, and how lovely to put Kew on it as the screen saver! Lovely picture with the magnificent glass house and all the pretty flowers. I hope it isn’t too long before you can stroll among them again. I have never been to Kew but reading your posts over the years, almost feel as though I had. Your background is just gorgeous with that juicy colour, and what a beautiful card you made. The new stash made me smile because the third one looks like Coronaviruses!!!
Happy WOWW,

Happy WOYWW. I bet you are missing Kew. It would be wonderful to walk around there now, with fewer planes going over and no crowds. Love the card. Given me an idea for a scrapbook page. Ali x #13
Happy WOYWDW
love the card, and all your new stash and as you said just knew your screen saver would be KEW
Stay safe and well

Yep, you may not have mentioned the word itself, but this is enabling in all its glory!! I’m frightened of the style of the stamps until you use them, that background is a gorgeous foil for the wild flowers. I omitted to say about the UFOs for week 572....you don’t need to do more than one (!), and don’t forget to take before and after photos to show us! Presumably if you go into the office it’ll be staggered days so that you can all keep your distance? I don’t know, but all of a sudden this talk of lifting the lockdown has me wondering what I’ve done with the time. You have to contemplate your commute and that routine again....good thing it’s now summer daylight hours. If you can resist going back for a while, it would help me feel you are still safe.....
That is a nice card Helen, I would never have thought of using that stamp like that. I need to look at my stuff again obviously.
Glad the phone is sorted, life without it sucks.
Hugs, Neet 4 xx
Well done that local shop for fixing your phone so quickly! I don't know how I'd do without mine now. Like the birthday card, the bold colour for the background and die cut all work really well!

Morning Helen, am enjoying seeing your FB Kew posts that pop up on my feed. Nice goodies, and you've made a lovely card. I love those flower die cuts - so useful!! Read somewhere you might be going back in to work but I personally hope we have another couple of weeks before they start relaxing too much. Stay well, stay safe, Happy WOYWW Cindy #18
Aww Helen, glad your phone is fixed. I Love how you have used those stamps - really makes the die cut pop.I will NOT look at those stamps !! I have too many on order!! Take care xxSoojay#22
Lovely card Helen, and always fun to receive new stuff. Although in the last couple of weeks I have had an issue with most online orders. Of course Covid 19 blamed for every mishap. Stay safe and good to see you are able to keep the Kew connection happening via your phone.

Hi Helen, I missed last week - glad you got your phone sorted. Love the birthday card, purple is my favourite colour! Great background to it. I really need to be more adventurous! Have a lovely week and stay safe and well, Heather xx #20
Hi Helen, oh I do love that Seth Apter set, I feel a purchase coming on!Love the masterboard you've done with them. The circles one is fab too, oh dear, this might get expensive, rofl! Have a lovely week, Stay safe, Hugs, Shaz #8 X
OOh what a cool shot for your screensaver :) Love how those big blooms pop on the page too Helen, ~Stacy #27
Hi Helen! I love that contrast of the white flower on the background you made - so lovely (I may steal that idea!). Your new stamps look awesome, I want to come over and play! Have a great week, stay safe, Lindart #28
Lovely card Helen and a happy hello! I am back and trying to catch up with all the goings on! Have a lovely week,
hugs from Cardarian
Hi Helen, love your background and the die cuts in the foreground. Glad you got your phone sorted. Have a good week Angela # 29
At the uni we are being asked to prepare to teach on-line next academic year so who knows! Love the card - it is really striking. Happy WOYWW! Stay safe and take care, with love and God Bless, Caro xxx (#17)
Thanks for your visit, Helen, and I'm glad you liked my paper towel backgrounds. If you keep several going and make sure you use matching colours to your work, they don't turn to mud. I've got a pizza box full of them now and every now and then I get them out and stroke them! I should start using them...

Hi Helen, loving the card. Great collection of new stamps too. You've done more than me this week, Mr Mojo seems to have gone walkabout but I have had a few distractions. Wishing you a very happy wwoyww, Angela xxx
Glad your phone is working! Seems we can't function without them!
And a perfect screen saver for you!
Great background! The white floral die cut is wonderful over it!
Thanks for popping by and have a wonderful week!

Glad things are working out. I love that background to what I’m guessing is a journal page. Gorgeous! I was never really a purple person, but this is very nice. Have a great week! Dorlene #33
Great card Helen! Glad the phone is all fixed again. x
Thanks for the visit Helen. Love your masterboard. I'm a big fan of Seth and the Paperartsy. They are hard to get here, but such fun designs. Missed last week (a really frustrating week) Now simple things keeping me OK ! Stay Save.
I'm glad to see you are still managing to craft, I didn't know about your phone mishap but i'm glad you've got it sorted and no it doesn't surpise me that your screen saver is Kew gardens.
Loving the new crafty goodies I keep thinking I should treat myself as I'm not exactly spending a lot, but I keep window shopping or filling a basket and then deciding against it - I'm a nightmare lol
Have a great weekend

Sorry for late visit don't know where time goes. Good work on the phone and why not Kew as a screensaver. Lovely cards.

Hi Helen
I'm really late getting round this week, really sorry. The beautiful weather distracted me.
I'm glad you got your phone fixed and I see you have those TH wild flower die, that's a beauty isn't it, one of my favourites.
Doesn't look like so much will change after the news today, will you have to go back to work? My Sister has been told she must work from home until at least 9th July. She works for an Insurance Co.
Hope you are having a good week. Take care

Sorry for my (very) late visit, time seems to speed even in lockdown! I love those Seth-stamps, I myself have two little sets but am always drooling over his stamps when I see those (not much budget to buy though...) I love how you created that card! Have a nice week dear one, stay safe! Love from Holland. Marit #25
Phew! The phone (and Kew) all back and operational...
Lovely new goodies, and I love that background you've created for the die-cut meadow flowers. Such a lovely card.
