February Favourites

I did quite a lot of colouring while I was in bed with the flu, but I then find it hard to make cards with the images afterwards - so only two of those make it into my favourites for the month - although I also did both the dotting of the tissue paper for the first card,and the doodling after it had been collaged onto the background, in bed.

I had two choices of pictures to use for a header for March - one was of a thrush in the snow in the back garden (our big snow started on the 28th February last year), and the one I have used, which was later in the month and was taken as we crossed "the Vee", so I'm not sure if it's Tipperary or Waterford.

Snaps on the go

Still not carrying my camera because of my sore shoulder, but there were such beautiful cloud reflections on the way to work on Thursday that I just had to do the best I could with my phone. We're having unseasonably mild Spring-like weather here - normally I expect to be still wearing a hat in April, but not this month.

The last picture is very much on the go. We went down to Cork on the first Saturday in February. It was another bright sunny day and we had a lovely drive - especially as we got near Cashel and started seeing snow on the mountains. I think, looking at the map in the car, that most of it was on the Galtees. It was really beautiful - and all gone by the following week.
