Good Evening Crafty Friends and I hope everyone is well, but here is a BIG HUG if you're not, and get better soon.
Thank you all for the lovely comments on Moreen's gift bag, I do appreciate all the time you take to visit and comment, it gives me confidence in my crafting.
I've had some really nice days off, but I'm back at work tomorrow, so I'll not get too much crafting done over the next few days, so I've been trying to get a few made whilst I've been off. I would have managed more but, having to go out to shops fairly takes up time, I have only managed to have one complete day at home, then when I thought I didn't need to go out for anything today, I find that I hadn't got stamping card. How can that happen!! anyway, I picked up a few bits and pieces whilst I was in Hobby Craft to keep me going.
So, here is today's card;
Some of you may recognise the image as being one of the stamps from LC's Stamp club for February.
The stamps are really lovely and make me thing of spring.
I've coloured the image with Prisma Colour Pencils and inked around the edges with DI Shabby Shutters.
XCut dies, SB corners
Green Core'dination card
First Editions New Leaf Paper
Sentiment from Hunkydory
Lace, Butterfly from my box
Hobby House Pearls
Glamour Dust
I don't usually use a DL card blank, but found this topper suited the shape.
Alistair has now finished his story and had me editing it this afternoon, it's is really very funny in parts, but he and his friends took some chances all those years ago, so I'm glad he is here to tell the tale. I wonder what tale he will tell next, because if there is one thing my hubby is, it's a Storyteller.
I will love you and leave you now, off to have a tour around your lovely blogs, see you soon

Hi Kate
Your new header is fabulous. . . A lovely pic of Cuillin and your socks!
Your card is super and, indeed, very Spring like and making me long for spots of colour in the garden.
Let us know when Alastair gets published. Would love to read about his fangling!
Hope its a quiet week back for you.

PS. . . . .Another Nov meet up would be brilliant!
Kate I fine when cutting the aster die out of tissue you need to have about six folds and I only use the three big dies. Hazel xx
Hi Kate,
great card, and what a lovely stamp. Fabulously coloured with those pencils. You are lucky to have a Hobbycraft place near you. The nearest to me is Maidsone which is 30 miles away, and my local craft shop just doesn't stock most of what I like to buy. For one they don't stock distress inks or stickles, which you should be able to buy in your local craft shop. I always have to buy on the internet, but sometimes you just need to be able to see what you want.
Love your new look blog. One of my favs OWLS.
Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.
Love your new look Kate. It's fabulous. And so is your card. Lovely spring like colours. Hugs Christine xx
Hi sweetie this is perfect, hugs Pops x x
Well first of all I want you to know how much I miss the picture of you and Alistair! It's not nice to fool Mother Nature. I do love that cat with what I am assuming is your feet!
Wonderful card - beautifully colored and so well done. I am not ready for Spring - we still have not had a good snow!! I love snow!!!
Kate I owe you an e-mail and I have not forgotten. Wish I had some Oat Cakes about now!!
