When Times are Tough have a chat with Friends!-goodies to be won!

 Hi All

Join our current challenge here

Times are hard now but why not escape and have a chat with some Friends!

Here at Time Out we have been having monthly zoom meetings and yesterday we had our 4th get together.

Have a read and not only will you get a hint of our next challenge but answer our question and a goodies bag could be your's!!

9 of us made it-Sandie, Lynn, Joyce, Ishani, Stephanie, Kim, Shauna, Lisa and Nonni-have a look:



Teamies from all around the world chatting!

We don't just talk 'cards' we talk about anything we want and get to know each other more.
Here are a few things we learnt about each other yesterday:

-The Orchestra Performance was stressful but a success!
-the winter and summer clothes wardrobes are swapped every year!
-the Funky Fossil release is soon and hubby hungry as it is lunchtime where I am!!
-some Indian culture and little boys go to bed late!
-Beach house at the weekends!
-not crafting so much but sewing lot!!
-new kitten exhausting!
-their Parent's first date!
-rage crafting is a new thing and making woollen hats!

So now we know more about 'US' and in our next challenge you will see we want to know more about 'You' in card form!!

Question for goodies bag (pretty easy for most of you!!)

Which 2 team members are related and how?
Leave your comment below and we will do a random draw on Sat 23rd 7am GMT!!
Enjoy!!

Such a lovely post and so interesting. We use this type of getting together a lot lately, because we have so many lockdowns here.
I think Lynn and Sandie are cousins, so interesting to read your story, Sandie. My mum has the same condition.

What a fun way to connect with your teammies and great way to get to know each other! I remember reading that Sandie and Lynn are cousins.

The smiles say it all! How wonderful that you have - and enjoy - your Zoom meetings! I believe Sandie and Lynn are cousins. In fact, I think all nine of you are related - in your passion for crafting *grin*

We are first cousins :)

Lynn said...

Yes - first cousins :)!

Yes we are!

Lynn said...

So fun for us all to "be together"! I am thankful for this fabulous group of teammates!

How fun to get together through these weird and crazy times...such a great way to connect with laughter and tales. I didn't know you have cousins on the team...but I see that Lynn and Sandie are just that. I am jealous...no relatives of mine are cardmakers. Thank you for the giveaway. Not sure I qualify because I didn't know the answer, but it was still a fun game. Stay healthy and creative!

Awesome challenges, I believe Sandie and Lynn are cousins.

I see from Sandie's story on her blog that she is Lynn's cousin.
I like your tip about doing whatsapp voice messages for the group - perfect for when we are spread across the world.

Bios give it away...
Sandie & Lynn are cousins

Looking forward to another year of stampin fun. Zoom calls fill a gap and love that it lets us connect all around the world!! But looking forward to being face to face again...my son lives in Long Island NY and I haven't seen him in person for over a year!! Our trip in June was canceled because of shut down as well as our Thanksgiving and Christmas get togethers...it is sooo sad!!!

Vicky Hayes said...

I love that you all got together and had a good old natter about such a lot of different things! See how bonding crafting is even when we're not crafting!
Sandie and Lynn are cousins of course! Vicky x

I have a group of people in the apartment building I live in that get together via Zoom every Monday morning for "coffee". Our province is in a code red lockdown so we are not able to visit in person so this is a wonderful way to keep in touch & check to be sure everyone is ok. Our family also did Christmas via Zoom....not quite the same but better than nothing! Sandie & Lynn are cousins. Hugs, Renee

Donna said...

Sandie and Lynn are cousins. I love using Zoom. It's been more than a year since we've seen our sons and at least we can Zoom every now and then. Stay safe!

Carol Cel said...

That looks like such fun. Some of my friends also zoom chat - but we haven't zoom crafted.
I'm wondering what "rage crafting" is -- but I have some ideas. :)
Stay well everyone.

Anila Dikay said...

Lol... looks like I am late to the party...Sandie and Lynn are cousins... I remember Sandie mentioning it once while chatting. So great to see this virtual meetup. It would have been great if you had put the names in sequence, so we could see whos who...

Claire said...

Well I had no idea Lynn and Sandie are cousins! How lovely that you all had a zoom meeting together!

ionabunny said...

I am obviously a rubbish Sherlock cos I couldn't find the info in your bio's. Obviously not looking in the right place. But I see there are some good detectives here. Fun game. Glad you ladies had a chance to chat. Take care. Be safe. Hugz

Helen said...

It is wonderful that we can catch up even though we are separated, especially in these times. It is always fun and often surprising, to find out more about people as friendships develop. Great to see you all enjoying a catch up. It is a clever idea for this challenge and one that will be interesting to watch what is entered. I love joining is you challenges. Good luck for the new year and take care. Cheers :) :)

Oh how fun to see and talk together!! Life is so different now and this is how I meet up with my local groups as well. I'm glad your group can meet up this way so as to keep up all together!! Crafting is a passion and it helps when you have friends to do it with...even relatives!!
I would guess that Sandie and Lynn are cousins.
