How walking in nature and crafting keeps me sane

Hello and welcome to Amethystarcrafting, my name is Jane Allmark and I'm a UK Independent Stampin' Up! Demonstrator.

Life has changed so much during the past six weeks. Social contact has stopped so seeing my family, grandkids, friends, work and just going out for a coffee has all stopped.  This has been really hard and if I didn't have my little craft space and my crafting supplies it would have been even worse. I try and do some form of creative crafting every day.  As most of you know I make YouTube tutorials 3 times a week, and this has been a way of talking to people I have met through my channel from all across the globe.


My one piece of daily exercise is walking in a 3000 acre deer park on my doorstep and nature in all it's beauty does not change. With the reduction in aeroplanes and cars the air is a little sweeter, the skies are a little clearer and the trees are a little greener. There are always positives to be found in every situation.

This is a photo I took of one of the little deer enjoying the morning air.

Misty mornings with the dog.

So as you can see I am very blessed in many ways. Once I have been out for my walk I spend several hours in my little craft space and try and bring inspiration and ideas to everyone.

So join me in the coming days as I can show you ideas in simple to follow tutorials.
