Kitty at the Well!

 Hello there, I hope all's well with Everyone, but if not sending out Hugs.

Just popping in with a quick  coloured picture. I seem to be concentrating on my colouring books at the moment instead of card making, anyway here is my latest offering,


And the colouring book it's from


This lovely book is one of  the first books I bought but haven't coloured much in it. 

So for this picture I used Derwent Chromaflow pencils, gel and Posca pens. Soft pastels for the background with Sickles  to give sparkle

Hope you like it. That's me  for now ,take care of yourselves,

Christmas Goose!

 Hello to you All,  hope life is going well and that you are enjoying the Summer which seems to be galloping by so quickly. 

We are off on holiday in a couple of weeks, just a few days to Durham and round about, really looking forward to the change of scenery, although I always worry about Teallach when we are away, but a friend and Damian will come over and look after him.

Thank you to everyone who left comments on my last post, I really do appreciated them.

I have my last Hobby Art geese card today,


Once again used Windsor and  Newton Watercolours, Posca and gel pens.

That's all from me just now, take care,

More Christmas Geese!

 Hi there Everyone, I hope you are all well and enjoying the Summer, which seems to be speeding by a a great rate of knots. Our weather is still a bit up and down, we just get used to a couple of days of sunshine and heat, then the temps drop and there's rain, well it is Scotland.

More Christmas cards today



Yes it's Hobby Art once again and water coloured with Windsor and Newton paints, gel and Posca pens.

I really have enjoyed making these cards and using the water colours.

That's me for now, take care of yourselves,

Fairy Tales!

 Hello Everyone, I hope all's well with you and that life is being good to you. Hugs and kind thought to those who are struggling a bit just now, and I hope things settle down for you soon.

I'm not doing all that much by way of crafting just now, but I did finish this lovely page the other day. It's a book that I've not coloured in for quite a while,


and here is the book the page is from


I coloured with Derwent Chromaflow pencils, which are Britain's answer to American Prismacolor, and are lovely to use. I've also used gel and Posca pens.  Elements Ink to make a background.

Thank you so much for the lovely comments on my last post, I very much appreciate them.

Just a short post today, I can't put off the ironing any  longer, take care,

Hello there,  how're you all doing,  well I hope. Just popping in with one of my Hobby Art Christmas cards, 


Another robin card,  well you can't have enough of them at Christmas time. 

Coloured with  Windsor and Newton  watercolour,  Stickles and Posca pen. I've used one of the Lavinia Christmas sentiment stamps.  A very simple little card.

Thank you so much for your lovely comments. 

Have a lovely weekend,  take care of yourselves till I see you again. 

Love and Hugs

Hello there,  I hope you're well.  

It seem to me that I'm posting less and less these days.  I'm certainly not making as many cards and it takes me longer to colour in a picture. 

Finding it easier to post on Instagram,  so maybe unconsciously I'm winding down my blog. Anyway,  we'll see.

Another Christmas card today 


Another Hobby Art image from years ago,  coloured with  Windsor and Newton watercolours Posca and gel pens with some clear gems.  Sentiment from Lavinia stamps. 

I've really enjoyed going through my Christmas stamps and finding old favourites,  and I've a few more Hobby Art stamps to colour. 

Thank you for your lovely comments on my last post. 

Take care of yourselves  and see you soon 

Love and hugs Kate 💖

Robin and the Holly!

 Hello Everyone,  hoping your week is going well.

We're back to being cold and wondering where the Summer has gone. As I'm typing this my hands are like ice. Had very heavy showers today too,  longing for some heat.  

Anyway,  just to fit in with the chill, I've got a Christmas card today, 


I've had this Hobby Art Robin for ages and felt that it needed an airing. 

I've used Windsor and Newton watercolour,  Elements ink,  Posca pen in white, Stickles in red. A Lavinia Stamps sentiment.

Thank you so much for your lovely comments on my last post. 

I'm away to stick my hands in the oven 😄 they might thaw out whilst I'm making dinner. Take care of yourself, 

Hugs Kate 💖
