Good Evening Everyone, hoping you are all well, and good wishes and hugs to those who are not so good.
I have spent the day feeling really quite cold, I had to go out for an eye test this afternoon and I was wishing I'd put socks on, and I am really trying hard to resist putting the heating on. Is anyone else feeling the change in the weather. Early morning is beginning to feel quite Autumnal.
Thank you one and all for all the lovely comments on my last card and I would like to offer a warm welcome to my latest follow John, it's lovely to have you aboard.
I'm making this a short post tonight so without further ado, here is my card;
Oh dear it's a wee bit blurred,
Ah, the closeups' a little better, my image is from http://deliciousdoodles.blogspot.co.uk/ where there are beautiful images drawn by Teri. I won at Lili's Little Fairies a few weeks ago and my prize was digi stamps from Delicious Doodles and this was one of my chosen four. Please visit her blog as see all her wonderful images.
Now why I decided to use this colour combination is anyones guess, and if anyone can guess, would you please let me know as I'm quite baffled.

I can honestly say I've never had as much hair to colour, it was quite daunting to say the least and, as she is Celtic I felt it should be sort of red, thankfully, a You Tube tutorial came to the rescue, but it took me ages to do, I hope it looks ok. Unfortunately the way the glamour dust is showing on it, she looks as if she's going grey, but maybe faries do who knows.
Anyhow Folks, I hope you like her, and thank for your visit, I'm off to make a hot drink and get into my gownie, Good Night.

Been lovely warm day here and Im sat in a vest top at 10.40pm. Our heating will not be making an appearance until November if I have my way.

Hi Kate
ReplyDeleteThe temperature dropped a little here yesterday too and for a split second I wondered if I need to get something on with long sleeves!!! I am not ready to give up on Summer yet though!
Loving your card. Such a great colour combo.
Hope you are having a good week and your trip to the Optician went well (apart from the cold feet).
Love Jules xx
Hi Kate a fabulous card I love your new image! It is definitely cooler here but I am not giving up on wearing summer clothes, last year I hardly wore them! Susan x

ReplyDeleteKate, your right it's feeling more like the start of autum than a summer morning here today. I have put my trainers on this morning just so I can have socks on, nothing worse than cold feet.
Love your Celtic Fairy, you have got her hair just right, even if it was a pain to colour. Hope you have a good day.

Hi Kate,
ReplyDeletesuch a super image, and card. Great detailing as usual.
We are still having lots of great weather here in the South, but sadly could do with the rain your getting occasionally in the north. I need my water butt filled up again, as it's costing me money to use the tap. lol. and I'd rather spend that money on crafty items. lol.
Have a wonderful crafty day.
Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.
Good morning sweetie, this is stunning, hugs Pops x

Gorgeous card Kate. xx
ReplyDeleteI am a little late Kate -- your card is so pretty and I think you did a fabulous job on her hair. Now if you want to see grey hair, you should look at mine!

How pretty! I just love the beautiful colors in your embossing. The fairy image is lovely of course. Such mystical and pretty creatures I think we ought to see more of them in paper crafts.
ReplyDeleteBest crafty wishes!
