Lady in Red

Hello all and I hope that you've had a good week and survived the awful weather? My thoughts are with those who are struggling against the forces of nature at the moment!  We had the most horrendous gales on Wednesday night - we live in north west UK - and at times it felt like the house was shaking. In the cold light of day we could see that we've lost quite a bit of the greenhouse and the felting on the garage roof - but thankfully we didn't lose power like so many. And at least we've not been flooded like so many others. I'm just hoping that it all gradually settles down soon and some sense of normality can return for people.

Anyway, it's time for a new challenge over at CraftyCatz - and this week our lovely DT Boss Carol has chosen the theme of 'Lady in Red' so we want to see female images and plenty of red!  Our sponsor this week is Rick St Dennis and I've used one of their images for my card


Now I'm not suggesting that I look like this in the morning - but there's probably something of a resemblance.... Just need to add a large black dog standing round my feet too.....
I've coloured the image with copics 

The papers were from stash - freebies with a magazine I think - and the sentiment is from LOTV. 
So let's see your 'red' creations - and have a look at the fabulous inspiration from the DT over at CraftyCatz. 
Back soon,
Kim x

    The weather is ridiculous Kim, such a shame for the heavily hinted areas.. Glad you didn't have too much damage.
    Your card is great. She looks lovely in red,
    Hugs Kelly

    Hi Kim, oh fabulous image and you've teamed it with a brilliant sentiment!! Wonderful bow as well.

    We've pretty much missed most of the bad weather - it has rained a lot but we're not flooded - it's also howled a lot with the wind, but we've also not had any damage caused either. So, all in all, very lucky.

    Hope you are having a good weekend,

    Sarah

    What a terrific card, Kim. That image is fabulous (even if she isn't first thing in the morning!) and your colouring is amazing. That bow is gorgeous too!
    Hopefully the weather is about to get better. Not too sure the country can take anymore! xx
