Hello Everyone,
Greetings from a cold, wet and dreich Scotland. Just the kind of day to escape to my room to do some crafting, you'd think. Well, that's what I thought until I spotted the basket of ironing just nagging away at me and so here I am at long last ready to snatch some scrapping time.
I did grab a moment or two yesterday to stencil this background. This will be the next page for the Nicole Jones class I'm slowly making my way through this month. Needless to say, I'm way behind but there's no time limit on it so I'm not getting to strung up about it. The metal stencil is something like thirty years old. If I remember correctly it's a Laura Ashley stencil which I bought to create a border of shells on the bathroom walls of the apartment that was my home back then. The photos are lovely but they are a bit of a puzzle. I cannot remember which of the many beaches we visited in the 1990s where this one is ... hopefully, it will come to me while I'm putting the page together.
I did receive a pizza box of goodies this morning. Only just unpacked it and spent a minute or too oohing and aahing over this beautiful collection from Echo Park, Day In The Life. As it covers the twelve months of the year I'm thinking I should save it for 2022, but then I might just start it in November as that's my birthday month. Decisions, decisions.
And now the kitten bit. No not the latest delivery but Silver never misses the opportunity to inspect the inside of any box. She had her surgery, for spaying, a couple of weeks ago and has made an excellent recovery. She's back to climbing the big fir tree in the front garden. Trouble is, she can't always get back down so it's usually me or our grandson to the rescue! There's never a dull moment when there's a kitten about.
And so finally:
These are so apt!
Isn't that the truth.
