I just love these cute characters designed by Sandra Dry.
They are called "Loupy Loo and Bobo"
Remember folks there is still time to enter the Blog Candy over at Kadoodle Blog and maybe these cuties will be living with you!!!
I am going to bed early tonight - feel really fluey and listless. Went to the Docs today and have a sinus infection too - Hrrrumph!!!
Today A Spoonful of Sugar have a sketch by my lovely friend Lim - How could I resist - Lim's sketches are always so detailed and great to use.
I have used one of my favourite colour combos and the image came from the lovely Dawny P and is coloured with Pro Markers!!! I'm getting ever so slightly addicted to them!!!
The papers all came free with various craft mags and they were great to use.
Will have to dash to work now - Back Soon!!! ...... and Yaaay!! it's sunny and quite warm (ish)!!!

As some of you may know my parents are mad hillwalkers !! Every year they do the Great Outdoors - Ultimate Challenge and walk across Scotland. I was looking through some of their photos and thought I would share them with you. I couldn't believe they were taken here in Scotland.
This first one was taken at Portmahomack in Tain up north.
These last ones were taken at Loch Clunie on the road to Skye - These blew me away - they look so haunting...
I forget how beautiful Scotland really is sometimes..
This last one I got made into a stretch canvas and am going to give it to my mum for Mother's Day. The company who did it made a fantastic job and you can find out all the details HERE.
Here is the original photo I sent them and below is the beautiful canvas - Speedy next day delivery too!
