Hello Everyone, I hope you are all doing well, and no one is suffering with these awful storms. Some if the news reports of the dreadful flooding is heartbreaking for businesses and homes, so I hope you are all safe. We have escaped it all in comparison to down south.
Thank you, all for all the lovely comments on my Penguin card, I do appreciate your visits.
It's coloured pictures today from this lovely Rita Berman book,
This is the first page reflecting the different countries and their landmarks. Coloured with Caran D'Ache Luminance pencils.
This lovely heart wreath is one of the drawings representing Portugal and flower festivals. I coloured this with Derwent Ink Intense pencils. Now I've had these pencils for quite an number of years and never really used them, I only had a few, but I've been watching some colourists using them and thought I would have a go, and think they are just lovely, although I do need a bit of practice with them. Anyhoo, I'm pretty pleased with how this picture has turned out, and have ordered more pencils which will make a full set. Hope you like the pictures.
We are having squally rain today, and it's so dark, I can hardly see the keys as I'm typing this, I hate putting lights on in the middle of the day, but I think I'm beaten.
I'm off now to have a journey through your lovely blogs, and then we are going out for a High Tea, we had booked to go last week but, the snow prevented us, so hopefully we won't have any today, although it is forecast for the Highlands, fingers crossed, but at least this time I've
got something to eat in, last week we had to make do with egg and chips, and I have to say they never tasted better, lol.
So cheerio for now and keep safe,

Hello Kate. Well, once again you have excelled yourself with this Magnificent colouring. Hope I get to Portugal in May this years as the last 2 years were cancelled due to COVID etc. A bit more hopeful of getting there this time. Enjoy your high tea, as it’s such a treat after a week of wind and rain. Take Care. Hugs Rita xxxx
Love the depth of colour on these beautifully coloured pages Kate, hope you don't get more snow tomorrow
Lovely colouring pictures Kate, I love the circular buildings one, it's so unusual and your colours make it very eye-catching.

The colouring book has some wonderful images in them Kate and you've coloured both pages beautifully. Interesting to read that you used the two different pencil makes and always good to buy more crafty goodies to make a whole set of pencils Kate x. I love the pictures and I love both of them as they are fabulous and absolutely beautiful x. Yes I think we are in for more squally weather...We've had heavy squalls today and sleet x. Hope you enjoy your high tea...? (and the egg and chips sounded yummy x).
So colourful Kate and nice memories as been a year or two since we've all been able to do that.
Glad you were not too badly affected by the storms, a few tiles hit the ground a bit swiftly so some repairs to be done, but nothing compared with what some got.

Stunning pages Kate. Beautifully coloured. Hope you managed to get to your high tea. Take care, hugs Flo xx
You have such a wonderful range of colouring books with some wonderful images and I love these designs with a journey through Europe, and I love the buildings in a ring with the pretty floral centre, and the heart shaped wreath of flowers is gorgeous Kate, and you have used the Inktense Pencils brilliantly. x
Sorry Kate, I put the above deleted comment in the wrong place have now put it with the right post.. having another senior moment...lol. x
Kate, what wonderful images you have colored them up beautifully. The first one is fascinating, I love it, lots of coloring... The second one of the heart is so very pretty. We hosted a young woman from Portugal when our daughter was in High School for a school year. Such a dear girl and we remain in contact with her and her family all these years later.
I also have the ink tense pencils and have hardly used them but I need to. I have the full set and the colors are beautiful. Thanks for the reminder!!
Hugs
Sue
