Di's BIO:  {I have been drawing since a child and studied graphics at College many years ago, I now work as a Medical photographer part time but my love was always drawing. I started cardmaking about 4yrs ago when I bought my daughter a cardmaking kit which we did together, but I’m afraid I got the bug! My daughter preferred scrapbooking. I then started looking online at other blogs and this then became my passion and I loved sharing my cards with like-minded people.  I love stamping and loved finding images, but sometimes I could not find what I wanted so I started to draw myself. This then has become my second addiction and I have never looked back, I love thinking of new images, and its just fabulous to see others take them and make them into beautiful works of art. Long may it continue! }

Here we are again with LHOSM - I missed last challenge I couldn't upload my card - I had the same problem the next day with House Mouse & Friends but I managed to but than on the challenge blog the next day. I suspect Goggle/Blogger is playing games again!!!

AUTUMNAL COLOURS

I've used one of the hAnglAr 'Attitude' girls and coloured her with copics. I used one of the last piece of Maja autumn papers - boo-hoo!!!  After un-packing by craft stuff when I moved I managed to fine some old Petaloo flowers I'd forgotten all about - now you will be seeing them frequently until they have been used up!!!

Right - back to cleaning - I had my wood burning fire sorted out including having a new flue - all though the room was covered with dust sheets soot appeared everywhere.  I'm on the third day but still soot is trickling down but at least I now have a lovely hot fire!!
