Peacock!

Good Morning Friends and Visitors, and Happy New Year to You!

I hope everyone is well and not being affected by all this awful weather, it looks devastating and I can't imagine what it must be like to have your home ruined by flooding.
We here in Inverness seam to have a micro climate all of our own, and by and large we have had not too many bad days, New Year's Day was beautiful, bright and sunny, lovely for a walk.

I've been on holiday since before Christmas and will be going back tomorrow, sad but there you go, but I've had a lovely break and feel rested.  I will now be starting my reduced hours, a whole new phase of life for me, I wonder how it will go!

Thank you all so much for your comments on my last card, I do appreciate them all. I've been trying to keep up with your lovely creations, but appologies if I've missed anyone out.  Not been doing all that much in the way of card making myself, I think I overdosed last year.  It was good to have a wee break from it and getting some knitting done.

I've also been setting up my new laptop, and I am getting used to it, not easy as it's Windows 8 and I can see why people don't like it, it's very strange to use, so different from the old PC which is XP, but I'm just taking my time with it.

I think when I was cleaning up the old PC, I must have deleted something that's made me loose my lovely Blog Heading, haven't a clue what I've done, but it's gone, so that is something else to sort out.

Anyhow, I do have a card to share today and here it is;

The Peacock die is by Tattered Lace
SB Rose Creations
All other dies are Tonic, Decorative Wreath Rings
First Edition Rose Garden Paper
Kanban Rainbow Coloured Card
Centural Pearl card in Ivory
Hobby Craft Lace
Dazzler and gems from my box
Glamour Dust in Crystal

This is the first time I've used Tattered Lace dies and I think they are lovely, I will be having more when the bank balance allows.

Is'nt this a strange one.... I began this post on the new computer and got to the bit where I was adding the photo to the page, it uploaded fine, then It wouldn't transfer to the paded when I clicked to add the photo.  I've had to finish this off on the old computer. any one any idea what I might be missing out on the new computer?  all help gratefully received.

I hope you like my card, wasn't too sure of my colours and felt the peacock didn't stand out all that well.
That's me for today, enjoy whatever your doing
