Hello Everyone, I hope all is well with you and that you are enjoying your weekend.
We have a lovely day here and even managed a drive out to Nairn and I had a wee walk without too much pain. Very breezing though and glad I had remembered to take my hat....cold on the old ears.
I've not been around Blogland much over the last week, I've been out every day and and just not had the time, but I hope to get around to commenting on your blogs today.
I find I'm less in the house these days since I started with the aqua classes, and last week I met my friend and even went to see Emma, which I thought was really good. I'm a bit more tired these days too, obviously not used to exercise and my blood sugars a a bit up and down at the moment too.
Anyway, all will be sorted out I'm sure, and isn't it great that daylight is lengthening now, Spring feels as if it's finally on it's way. Which leads me into the card I'm posting today as it has a Spring theme and is for; http://sirstampalotchallenge.blogspot.com/2020/03/march-spring-florals.html
This little card sees the Chocolate Baroque Spring Crocus stamp, which I've water coloured with Altenew watercolours on Arches Watercolour paper. I found a card base that had embossed at some time and thought it would look good behind the painting, finished off with tiny pearls. A very simple card, but took me ages to paint, one thing with watercolours....patience.
Thank you for all the lovely comments on my last card, and the good wishes for my friends climbing adventure, you are all so kind.
Oh my, Alistair's' switched on the rugby...Scotland and France, he's obviously feeling masochistic, how often can one watch Scotland getting a hammering????
That's me for today, take care of yourselves,

Such a beautiful card Kate and a flower that we all associate with Spring. I love the combination of pink and purple too. Thank you for joining us in our 'Spring Florals' challenge at Stamping Sensations and good luck. Sandra x

Beautiful card. Love the crocus, first flower to appear out of the winter ground in the Spring! I have been dabbling in watercolors and you are right takes longer, but having fun.

These are beautiful Tulips Kate and looks stunning against your inky background, lush colour palette as well. Perfect for our Spring Florals theme at Stamping Sensations, thanks so much for joining in.
Hope you BS's stabilise soon, I find mine are always a bit up and down in the winter months, probably something to do with an excess of comfort food!
