Blue Poppies!

Hello Everyone, hoping all is well with you today and looking forward to the weekend ahead. It will be just me and Teallach as Alistair is off first to Glencoe for a meeting with his climbing club and then down to Glasgow to see Jim and Karen. Puss and I will chill out, peace!

Thank you for the lovely comments on my last card, you are always so kind.

I've got a card today that I want to enter into ;https://caswatercolour.blogspot.com/2019/06/cas-watercolour-june-challenge.html


Hobby Art's Poppy Field stamp, embossed in white EP and coloured with Altenew watercolours. The thank you is a freebie from Creative Stamping magazine, mounted onto blue card and job done. I really wanted to add a bit of glitter and sequins to this but had to restrain myself.

It's just a short post this time around, so I will love you and leave you and wish you a good weekend whatever your plans, take care of yourselves,
