Good Afternoon Crafty Friends and Visitors, I trust you are all well, but for those who are a bit under the weather I'm sending out kind thoughts that you recover quickly.
Well half an hour ago there was a curtain of darkness over us up here, I had to go and put the light on to see what I was doing, then the wet stuff just poured down, now the sunshine is spliting the sky, and the worst of it all is that I have a whirrlygig of washing out. It can stay out for now!
Thank you all so much for the kind comments on my last card, I do appreciate them and the time commenting can take up, everyone is busy these days.
I have a few days off now and I'm always ready for them, I'm hoping to manage to do a little crafting, I feel I've almost ground to a halt with the card making, even on my days off there always seems to be something else I have to do.
I haven't much news, haven't been doing anything exciting, unlike my adventurous hubby, who always seems to be on the go, if he's not actally away somewhere, he's certainly planning something or other. I'm more of the indoor type, I like nothing better than, my crafting, knitting and reading, and I'm getting through some amount of books just now, all too easy with a kindle. The fact that you don't have to go out and physically buy a book, but click a few times and one arrives downloaded on to your device makes me forget that I'm actually spending money, although it's all done out there in cyberspace, and it all mounts up.
I been devouring 14th and 15th century historical novels, I'm normally a crime novel person, but I fell into the Wars of the Roses and I'm now facinated by all the machinations of the main players to take and keep the throne of England. What awful brutal times, especially for women.
Anyway, here is today's card;
I bought this digi stamp last year and I think it's one of Mo's
Prismacolour Pencils
SB Floral Ovals Die
Freebie Papers
Core'dination Pink card
Hobby Craft Pearl Hearts
Other Pearls from my box
Daffodil from Highland Hospice
Sizzix die leaves
Just one for my box, have not used a sentiment as yet, wait and see what occasion it might be needed it for.
That's all from me today, take care all, and enjoy your Sunday,

Kate, this cards reminds me of a post you put up last year of you feeding a lamb. This image is so sweet and I love your layout. No matter what you are doing enjoy doing it, you work hard and a bit of me time doesn't do any harm. I have been very lazy this past week and have enjoyed it. Hazel xx

Good evening Kate, I love that sweet image, your papers and great design.
Enjoy your time off, as you say there is always something crops up when you want time to play!!
The boys have taken up a lot of my time. Robert has taking a great liking to stamping and colouring. His colouring is better than mine.
Might get up to see you once John and I come home from our break in a few weeks time.

Hi Kate
This beautiful cheery card just sings Spring and would make a terrific Easter card.
Hate it if the washing gets soaked as I just have to wash it again. Got mine dried in glorious sunshine today, thankfully.
Have a great week.

So sweet Kate - Mo Manning does make wonderful images.
I am an avid reader to - Have read all about Henry VIII and his children - who took the throne when, where and how. I have also read about Mary Queen of the Scots. I too have a book about The War of Roses on my Kindle which I will get to -- I just finished reading one of the best books - THE BOOK THIEF. One of my favorite books is A TREE GROWS IN BROOKLYN by Betty Smith.
Back to your card - It really is pretty and I love the color yellow!
