I would just like to say a warm welcome to my new followers, waving to you. I would also like to say I have been so busy that I haven't got round to leaving you all some love lately. I did try to catch up in my lunch hour on my iphone but experienced white screens which some are saying is due to your internet browser but on my phone it's Safari, so not sure if its the same problem?
It's Wednesday, half way through the week and I can honestly say I knackered, don't know why but I haven't been sleeping well lately, too much on my mind I think. I have some personal stuff going on that I haven't wanted to bore you all with, my Mum's been ill, my Mother in law went into hospital boxing day but she's doing well now and sadly my Brother-in-law being diagnosed with kidney disease to name but a few.
I have to go straight to the gym tonight, I've been so busy I only managed twice last week and I really need to make it 3 times a week, I want to get extra fit as I'm aiming to do the London to Brighton Bike Ride in June, yikes.
Today over at Crafts and Me we have a challenge that I haven't seen very often, actually I'm not sure if I have seen it anywhere at all, anyway, Gina is challenging us to use those "Pins". I have used our new artist Zindy Nielsen's "First Snow", Wow I love these images and I also decided to her colour black and white. I used all my grays ranging from C9 through to C00.
I have only used one paper which is an embossed vellum by Papermania, very beautiful and it glitters too.
I hand drew the little trees at the back just like in Zindy's original.
Hope you like it and as always I look forward to your comments.
