Allsorts challenge 590 - My lovely garden

 Good morning - Helene has chosen the theme for this week which is....

My Lovely Garden.

For my card I have used Woodware - Flower Garden stamp.


                              The papers are from Bloom and Grown collection, quite old now.
                                    Coloured with ProMarkers, sentiment Craftwork Cards.
I did paper piece the flowers.

Now for the winner of the Tutti die.
Thank you to all of you who left lovely comments on my blog and I did have some who left comments but they did not enter the challenge

I was unable to use Random Org as those eligible for the draw did not run in a set order. So instead I had to use Random Chris (Hubby)
There were quite a few that entered more than once and I did include each entry number.

The winner of the die is entry...
Number 91 - MAMAWCINDY

Cindy please leave a message on my blog with your address, I will delete it after reading it.

We are back in lockdown again from midnight Monday night. Soul destroying, why are there so many idiots in Calderdale?

Thank you for popping by and any comments that you are kind enough to leave.

A gorgeous stamp and beautifully coloured. I’m so sorry to hear that you’re going to be on lockdown again, and yes, it is soul destroying! To be honest Kath, I don’t think it will be too long before it’s the same for all of us. It’s quite shocking how fast the figures are rising but I can’t say I’m surprised with all the pictures that you see of the town centres at night. Also, the schools are back now and that was bound to make a difference, despite when the government says. It just feels like it’s never going to end at the moment. Thank goodness that we have the internet. Take care Kath and chin up buddy xx

Another blooming(!) beautiful card mate.

Sorry to hear you're being locked down again. I saw your ward of Calderdale was unrestricted at the 11th Sept update. Feel for you.

Sending lots of virtual hugs,
Sarn xxx

So sorry to hear you're on lockdown again. I guess it's hard to get people to just care for others and that's why it's spreading againg :(

Lovely card Kath.
Rossendale also has more than it's fair share of idiots too. Resigned myself to continuing to live how we have done since March. x

Beautiful card, lovely stamp and papers, love that vibrant blue of the paper-pieced flowers.
So sorry that you're having to go into lockdown again, it's really frustrating for those who have been sensible and obeyed all the rules to see others behaving irresponsibly- leading to lockdown again- why won't they get the message!
PS It wasn't MY throat I would have liked to offer to the wolf (with or without the red roses!) but I did have someone in mind during those cold showers.

Yes! Lock down again.. I really can't do anything more than I've done for the last 6 months! Even have long hair and short nails now. Not been since anywhere much since March. Bowling completely out of the window for all year too.

It is soul destroying Kath and I wonder more and more if things will ever be the same again. Not that I've been far since shielding ended, but the mention of it starting all over again plays with the mind.

We've not seen some of our boys since the early part of the year and I really do wonder when we ever will, I find it quite distressing, as even if we can't hug and kiss anymore, there's nothing like seeing hem in the flesh. I'm not really moaning as I know it's just the same for you with Jude and you hoped to go visit this year I think.

As always your paper piecing is precision and the bright blues make a lovely contrast with the greens.

Your paper pieced flowers look so pretty in that shade of blue which goes perfectly with the green. A lovely card.
I'm so sorry to hear about your local lockdown but as others have said, probably coming to us all pretty soon.

Mervi said...

Very pretty Kath. Xxx

Diane said...

Just a stunning design and colors Kathleen.

I am sorry to hear about the lock down again, there are idiots everywhere, here a lot of them won't wear a mask which just makes the situation worst.

Hugs Diane

So sorry to hear you're in lockdown again.... if only people would act more responsibly then maybe the world could start getting to grips with this.
Wonderful card, such a lovely stamp and fabulous colouring xx
