Hello...
I had one of those days this week, started off okay but gradually I could feel my stress levels rising...
So I pulled out my watercolours. Touching a colour loaded brush onto the wet paper is mesmerising and very therapeutic.
I'm no artist but a mish mash of colour always finds a home on my cards
I got 5 done including these 3
No sentiments but I'll probably send them as Christmas/Holiday cards
That's a new die and I really like how easy it is to make up a quick card...
...With your own artistic touch
Needless to say by the end of the day I was feeling much calmer
It's still raining here (heavily), the days are getting shorter but funnily enough the trees are still very green in my neck of the woods and flowers are still blooming...
I've a quiet afternoon planned whilst DH is off to enjoy the match. Whatever you have planned I hope you enjoy...
Till soon
