Night Nurse

Hello everyone,

I hope you are all well out there in blogland ~ and keeping warm in this chilly weather in the UK.

We went on one of our Bearded Collie Club rambles on Sunday ~ we were so lucky with the weather. It just started spitting with rain as were sat outside the pub having a bite to eat, but very quickly blowing over.  Majik Beardie has been pestering me to let her have a go on my blog (seeing as how it is named after her), she has been inspired by the antics of Daisy and Holly on THIS blog here ~ so watch this space, might publish one or two photos of our ramble as well.

Today I have a retirement card to share with you ~ I made this for a friend who just happens to be the wife of the Scottish gentleman who 'Braveheart Bo' below was made for and yes she is, or should I say was, a nurse ~ I see a theme going on here.

As I had to colour the little uniform in blue, I have tried to tie the rest of the card in with this colour theme ~ by-the-way she absolutely loved it!

Hi everyone,

I hope you are all well.

We had an awful day weather wise here in Warwickshire yesterday (I think most people in the UK did) it rained and rained and rained ~ only clearing up at tea time.  There was a 'lake' outside our gates in the road because the drain that is there couldn't cope with the amount of water!

Today I have a Birthday card to share ~ made for a very good friend who just happens to be Scottish.  He and his wife are the breeders that two of our Beardies have come from ~ they show their dogs and every year at Crufts he wears his full Scottish regalia ~ I have photographic proof of this!  So, when I saw this image I thought it was perfect.

There is an awful lot of detail in this image and took me forever to colour it in!
