it has been quiet a while since my last post due to having jobs done on our house and a two week holiday to the canaries and sadly a bearevement which has left me with not much time to do anything but i did manage to squeeze this little bit of colouring in before i went away, and also complete the card that's now in my stash so i thought i should share it.
