Still Freezing

I've discovered that Katharina has designed the sketch for High Hopes blog challenge and I couldn't resist. I love these HH fishes they make a great couple and while I was in Spain I brought some swirly paper but it not paper but a very thin plastic film had to use it like vellum but I love those swirls not sure about the stripes but its growing on me.

Finding it hard to get back to the crafty flow, I've now have a CJ to complete too and I'm now two letters behind in my A-Z journal.

I've noticed there's no update about my Mum, so just to let you know she's back home. We went to pick Dad up to take him visiting the night before we went away and there she was sitting in her chair, looks like she has an ulcer probably due to one of the drugs she uses but she seems fine now.

Glad to hear your mum is feeling better. yes some medication does cause ulcers and takes the lining off the stomach. the doctors will put her on another tablet to protect the stomach.

This is beautiful and the two aquatic beings have been coloured perfectly. I don't think you have to get use to the stripes as it brings the whole creation together and grounds it. Warm regards
