Wee Berry

Hello again my lovely crafty friends, hope you have all had a good week and are bracing yourselves for yet another storm....Dennis is on the way. Hopefully it will pass through quickly with minimum damage.

So onto today's offering, l coloured this little beauty up a couple of weeks ago, she is one of my all time favourite stamps and l love to spend a couple of hours on this one but l think l spent even more time pushing around papers and embellishments until l was happy.

Lavender House Mouse

Hello my lovely crafty friends - hope you all stayed safe. We were very lucky and it was not too bad here just a few hours of gusty winds.

Have just seen on the news this lunchtime a search team of 24 had to go out to top of Ben Nevis yesterday to rescue 4 foreign nationals that had got into difficulty - no winter kit and 3 wearing trainers - when will people learn, you would not even wear trainers in summer up there. They are putting other experienced climbers lives at risk. Absolute lunatics.

I am nice and cosy in my craft room today, so thought l would share this card l made at the weekend. When colouring this one of my green pens decided to leak so to cover the blob l put in some grass - hey presto covered !

Love Is In The Air

Hello my lovely crafty friends, hope you are all staying safe in Storm Ciara. We had strong winds yesterday, today is very grey and windy with a bit of rain mixed in but not as strong as we are expecting - hopefully we will be lucky and it bypasses.

Friday l went to the theatre in Inverness to see The Buddy Holly Story with my grandson and we both loved it - a great show and all the cast were amazing.

As it is the week of love l am sharing this adorable little cutie from LOTV.

Vintage Christmas

Hello my lovely crafty friends. Hope you are having a good week and managing to fit some crafty time in.
Just back indoors after taking my fluffy boy out for his walk, we are very lucky to have woodlands just over the road so he can have a good sniff around. A nice day so long as you are wrapped up warm, no snow yet this winter.
Today l am sharing a vintage christmas card, l love this stamp and just added a little touch of green to lift it a bit. Another one for the christmas box - determined not to have to buy a single card this year.

Hummingbird

Hello lovely crafters. Well, it has been a week since l ventured back into my craft room and l have to say l am enjoying myself again.
Not much excitement this week but l am looking forward to going to see Buddy in Inverness on friday and my 12 year old grandson is coming too as he loves his music.
Today l have used a stamp that has been sitting in the 'to use for the first time' basket. The stamp was challenging to colour as it is a large one, l am happy with the colours l have used and the paper matches perfectly.
 The weather has been a bit miserable this week but on the up side it is getting much lighter and spring not too far away.
Thank you to all for visiting my blog over the last week, so nice to see many of my blog buddies still here.
I have cut out the hummingbird to give it some depth and make it look like it is hovering over the hibiscus.

Here at Last

It is hard to believe l have not been here for so long, my last post was October 2018. I only made one birthday card last year and not a single christmas card. I have lost all confidence in my craft room and decided it is time l got back in there as my stash is just gathering dust.
 I have gone for a clean and simple card to get me started, using this gorgeous Penny Black stamp designed by Mo Manning.
