Many of my regular readers will know that I took up walking (for my health) in August of 2019, I've been going out pretty much every day since, only missing the odd one here and there, and have found it both beneficial and enjoyable. I've also discovered many lovely footpaths and met some really nice people for (socially distanced, of course) chats since the pandemic kicked in. It never ceases to surprise me what I find whilst I'm out too ..... I KNEW we had a young monkey puzzle tree not far from me (they even added baubles to it at Christmas) but, as I walked past recently I was surprised to see such stunning flowers flanking it and simply had to stop and take a photo.
I was a lucky winner over at the A Bit More Time To Craft challenge Blog (for challenge No. 140) - thanks so much peeps.

I love a little soft stencilling with a focal image over it and both these cards are right up my street Kathy. I'm also a keen walker and agree that aside from the health benefits you get to meet lovely people and see amazing things. These flowers are wonderful! Congratulations on your win and have a great weekend. Vicky x
Cool card! :) Love CAS and your background :)

Hi Kathy, The background and stamp set go so well! Also, the matching envelope really finishes the entire look. Thank you for entering the Crafter's Cafe challenge. Looking forward to seeing you soon! Take care.

The sympathy card hits just the right note Kathy using those lovely leaves and pretty stencilling in the background, and then the elegant vintage car and red stencilling on the birthday card..such a great colour combination. Congratulations on winning over at A Bit More Time To Craft. x
I adore your vintage birthday card, Kathy! I do hope that old automobile has A/C, but I am doubtful! This heat is crushing me. How are you coping? This is what we wait all winter for, right? Thanks so much for joining us this week at The Paper Shelter Challenges. Julie O, DT member
