So kind and thoughtful dear friends.We had a coffee beforehand then went for lunch and to a couple of shops as Shannen needed a few bits. I've not been home long so a cuppa and a rest is in order with my hubby and Hunter the dog.

It's all appointments lately. Onwards and upwards eh...

Autumn colours

Hi all,

Thank you for visiting and all your lovely comments on my last post. You are so kind.

I've been playing with my inks and my friend's stamps again. All stamps are indigo blu. I did a resist back ground with their leaf stamp and white embossing powder.

Today I've been to my friend Julia's house for a cuppa and a catch up which was nice. She's not been keeping so well so it was nice to be able to get out and take her some flowers.
