I’m here again…

 What do you know, it’s just about a week later and I’m here with a new quote from Colour Me Positive to add to my little book. 

A Clarity stencil + Twisted Citron distress ink, a “Face “ from my bit box which I think might be a Julie Fei Fan Balzer image and the quote is written using a proper old fashioned pen and nib + Mont Blanc green ink



This second one is a quote I had tucked into a pocket…. 
I have lightly stencilled in the back of my book, stamped a feather wreath which is then coloured with pencils and written my quote around the outside circle , not particularly happy with the initial T nut I can live with it!

Burns Night is here

 ….. And so am I! Despite the weather warning for yesterday, which was only amber for our area, we can honestly say that we got off lightly as we only had rain, strong wind at times but most importantly we had no power cuts. I took the opportunity catch up on some crafting by finishing off making the alphabet koins that I had not yet done, got my valentine card made & started to transfer a load of quotes to a Commonplace book rather than having them on assorted scraps of paper. 

I’m using a small square book for the Colour Me Positive group this year and here’s the quote that was given this week…



I’m trying to neaten my handwriting so this is a good way to start in some practice! I have stencilled the background & added a magazine image of flowers.

Card time

 Some inks & watercolour pencils for another birthday card, it’s not required for a little while but I decided to strike while I’m inspired and also freezing cold outside! I just need to flatten it out and then mount it on a card blank.

I’m just trying to get here a little bit more often

 Wow it’s only been a few days….


Colour me positive brings a new quote 


And I took inspiration from a magazine to create a card for my neighbour’s birthday

It’s a New Year!

 I’m sorry to see that I have been absent from here for 2 months but I’m glad someone still pops in occasionally to see what I have been up to!

We had snow on the ground for the first 12 days of the year so the colours in this one reflect that fact!
