Hello Everyone, I hope all goes well with you. October is fairly settled in now, up here anyway, and unfortunately today is a damp dreich day, having to put lights on, not desperately cold though. However, according to the Daily Record, a Scottish newspaper, Scotland has to be plummeted in temperature and with snow. Not, that anything this particular paper can ever be believed, but we'll see.
I have a birthday card for a young man,
Not much on the news front, been living quietly, getting on with my knitting, trying to get socks done for Alistair's two friends. Awaiting needles to arrive, I thought I had every size of knitting needles, until I went in search of No. 5, I have 5.5,4.5, but no 5, and they are difficult to find. This is for a hat for a friend for Christmas, so I hope I can find them, as I'm a slow knitter.
Anyhoo, bored you enough, so it's lunch time so off to find food, take care and keep safe, and see you soon,

Hi Kate this is a stunning card. I love it. Take care. Hugs Jackie
Your card is gorgeous. I love that you white embossed the image and put the beautiful colors around it.
Love it Kate…a great background and a stunning stamp….
It’s been pouring down here all morning as well,not too cold but dull and a bit depressing,I am watching the tennis and doing a bit of crafting…sitting cutting out decoupage….take care xxx
Lovely jellyfish design. Hope he likes his card,
It seems some sizes have disappeared, I am going to buy my sister in law a complete set of needles as she wants them fir Christmas, when I looked at sets of needles on the internet there was no no 10 and although I did not go into every number I don’t remember seeing size five. Also they seem to be bamboo niw. Some wool will not knit on bamboo, I think it might be a case of buying them separately and putting them together as a set. Have you tried Amazon they sell knitting needles, or my local shop down here he does online order's, Mike might be able to help you his shop is called The Hive in Shepton Mallet. I hope you find a pair.
A beautiful card Kate and I love the Pixi powers in the background as they work together perfectly with that stamp. Wet and windy here today but quite warm, which is all a bit odd. Hope you don't need to wait too long for your new needles x
Ooooh, that jellyfish works so well with that fab background x
The jelly fish looks fabulous, love the explosion from the powders and your freehand dashes around the edge. A very striking card for a young man Kate x. I hope you manage to get the size 5 needles x.
The Pixie Powders make for a perfect ocean inspired background for the Jellyfish Kate.

A great masculine card Kate. Love the jellyfish image

surrounding water. Love this technique. Hope you are able
