Oooooh Treasure!

 Hello Everyone, I hope all is well with you and that your week is going well. I've sort of lost the plot in terms of knowing what day it is. t's been a hectic time here with one thing and another, and them to cap it all I've had to sort out a new email address as my old one had been hacked. I was getting load of foreign emails through, fortunately I didn't open them, but what a pain having to delete them all day after day. Then another strange thing happened with them, that I won't explain as I just can't.

So the only thing was to have a new address, so I've spent all day, updating everyone I deal with and obviously important ones like banks, utilities etc. needless to say my brain is mush. I've not done it here, I had a look but I can't see where to do it, maybe some of you might know how it's done. I hate scammers, I'd hang the lot of them!!

Anyhoo I've got another coloured page for you today;


Another page from Johanna Basfords Lost Ocean book.

I just love this jolly octopus, well he would be having found all this treasure.  Coloured mainly with Derwnet  Procolour and Coloursoft pencils, some gel pen and chalk pastels for the background.Hope you like it.

Thank you so much for the lovely comments on my last post and also for giving the info for editing the photo, you see there is always someone who is blogger savvy and can help, in this case there was quite a few of you clever people.

That's me for today, I'm sorry I've not had the time to comment on your blogs and I think I've left it too long to catch up, so forgive and I'll try and get back into the grove soon, take care everyone,

Hi Kate, I had to change my email a couple of years ago and it was a nightmare. On Blogger look at your Reading List which is on the left hand side. Click on Settings, then click on Email. You will then be able to add/change your email address. Cute colouring page with octopussy and his treasure chest. Take care. Hugs Christine xx

Your colouring page looks like a lot of fun to colour! I hope you can manage to get your email sorted out. So many people hacking emails, and calling up trying to trick you into things. You have to be so wary all of the time. Take cate, and stay safe Xx

Oh Kate what a terrible time you have had, it's such an enormous task to change your contact details with everyone you deal with, I feel for you. I hope you have sorted it out now and can put this awful episode behind you. I agree with you regarding the hackers and the anguish they cause.
Another fabulous colouring page completed, take care.

Great page, much better seeing bigger pics. Sorry to hear about your email. I use mine in so many places can’t imagine changing it. You can change it on here in the settings.

I'm so sorry to read you've been hacked Kate and all the work involved in setting up a new email address, notifying everyone etc etc. These beasts are heartless and selfish to say the least!

Your colouring page is delightful and I hope it gave you some peace whilst colouring it

Take care

I adore that cute octopus Kate and love how you've coloured it with the two different types of Derwent pencils, and love the chalk pastels in the background. Johanna Basford does some great books. x
