Fuchsias!

Hello and hoping all's well with you today and that you've enjoyed whatever you've been doing.
I've just been pottering about in the house  catching up with bits and pieces of housework, nothing too taxing.

Thank you for the lovely comments on my last post, you are always so kind and I do appreciate each and every one of them.

I have a card tonight, one made a few months ago but only getting around to posting now;
Stamp and die from Taylored Expressions called Blooms. Stamped on to black watercolour card and water coloured with Altenew Metallic paints. Sentiment by Clearly Besotted stamps, embossed in white onto black card. A dotted embossed background and a few sparkly gems.
I'm entering it into;


Well that's me for tonight, so take care of yourselves and see you soon,
