Toadstools!

Hello Everyone, I hope today is a good one for you.
It's a lovely sunny day up here, but still a bit of a chill in the air, but with the slight breeze this morning, I'm hoping my washing will be dry. Oh the simple things of life!.

I'm still struggling along with my tablet, the laptop has been diagnosed with the hard drive needing replaced, only 18% healthy. However it's going to be less expensive than a new machine,but I'm missing it for blogging and there are obviously tasks it can't do that the laptop can, like linking up as I realised when wanted to enter the Rudolph Challenge. I also can't access my photos that are in my laptop files. Hopefully I'll have it back by next week .


More fungi for my latest card, this time from Woodware, and a bit of a mixed media with Spectrum Noir pencils,  Derwent Inkintese pencils and Altenew watercolours. Image embossed in Copper Wow EP. Paper is from Crafty Individuals, sequins, Star Dust and Glossy Accents. It wasn't how I intended, but how it ended up.

Thank you for your ĺovely comments on my last card, I do appreciate them.

That's it for now folks, take care,
Hugs,Kate xx 😉

This is so pretty, fab stamp. I can post from my Ipad and link but never worked out how to add photos! Such a nuisance being without a laptop, which is why we had two, but one hardly got used and always needed updating when we did use it and it was slower so sold it. Hope you get yours back soon

Hi Kate love your colourful mushrooms on this card. Hope you get your laptop back soon. When we had the internet problem the technician that came out said both mine and the Docs hard drives didn’t have much life left. Hanging on as long as we can as we are both using windows 7. Hugs Mrs A.

Sorry for your laptop, hope that the technicians will repair it sooner.
Lovely card, those fungi are so beautifully coloured and the glossy accents looks great on the yellow ones!
Here rain rain and rain... Climate challenges begin to show themselves also in Italy :((

Hi Kate,
what a very lovely card and that stamped image is so fresh looking and summery with all those lovely colours you have used.
Beautiful colouring as well.
It was quite chill here in the south yesterday.
So today I have put on a warmer top even though it's sunny outside.
Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.
