I’m not feeling blue at all, but there are a couple of ‘Blue’ or ‘Frosty Colour’ challenges around and I thought I’d share some of my latest cards.…
More pink than blue, perhaps…
This one’s clean and simple…
…and this is a page in my journal from yesterday…
…which I really liked, so I made a card the same way. Just goes to show how much difference gesso and a bit of white paint makes. I changed the words because I wasn’t too impressed with the way the first two stamped when I used them. They are still there, but in gold ink, so you can’t see them on this. There’s a lot of gold on this card…mainly crackles but you can’t see them in the photo.
I’ll enter one of these into the following challenges:
Allsorts Challenge – No Patterned papers
That’s Crafty Challenges – Feeling Blue
Stamping Sensations – Cold and Frosty Colours
Addicted to Stamps – Clean and Simple
Try It On Tuesday – My Favourite Things
Frilly and Funky – Three of Something
Country View Challenges – Anything Goes
I’ll be back soon.
Thanks for looking!

Thanks for your kind comment on my blog - the quote is from vivalasvegastamps.
I like your reading bird a lot - and the fire-coloured card at the bottom of your post.
Hi Cath, love your cards, especially the Raven reading a book! Where on earth did you find that stamp? Would love to own one... I am just getting my new blog up and running and would love to have you pop over sometime for a visit! Hugs for now from very brrrrrr New Hampshire from across the pond :D

These are all so beautiful Cath! So pleased you joined us at Try It On Tuesday! Chrisx
Superb cards....the reading raven made me smile.
Wow! What a feast for the eyes! I loved seeing all the gorgeous blues and purples you did here and how the colors are blended so elegantly. I also liked the repetition of floral themes, which are so refreshing to see during January! Each card and journal page was original and lovely and I'm so glad you took the time to share your talents with us here at the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge Blog!
I love that first card...the color palette is striking. Gorgeous inking and coloring! The white pen marks add so much! Thanks so much for sharing with us in the first Frilly and Funkie Challenge of 2018: Three is Not a Crowd!

Each card is beautiful but I love the best what you entered into our January challenge at the Country View Challenges!
A beautiful card for our Frosty Colours theme at Stamping Sensations! I love it. Thanks for joining us and good luck!
Hoping to mail you but as yet found no bio/link, was just to say not sure if you realise you have a block set on your blog - that means should you be a winner you entry can't be lifted so can't be considered.
