Hi Nina, What a great idea to use giant puzzle pieces. I’m off to the grandchildren’s play room to find a jigsaw although I might leave it up to you to explain why Peter Rabbit is suddenly missing his feet - he he he 😊

Good morning nina, this was a very royal sunday...the little crowns so delicate, the puzzle piece so lovely and the card , it reminded me of a period I used to wear my hear like this..long time ago( ha ha), Do I relate to hanging on to beautuful papers, oh yes I do, but I tell myself use them, because one day you will hardly know you have them and that's such a shame..

Before lockdown, I was still seeing Mambi Sheets at Michael's. They're usually the huge sheets though, not the paper pads. They're sold in the same aisle as the paper pads, but you unfold what looks like a 12x12 pad into a giant wrapping-paper sized sheet.

Hello Nina, I love this prompt. The pieces you've done this week are beautiful, I remember you doing the 1st jigsaw piece last year.....I couldn't find an old jigsaw in the charity shops for ages, I think us arty peeps must have cleared them out, got some now, so I'll be lying along this week. Do I have paper stashed just for stroking, of course but like you I'm being brave and using it now, otherwise why buy it to sit in a box? At least if I use it I can look at it and then buy more!!
