It is Frustrating

I would love to be able to leave more comments but for some unknown reason every so often (usually once a day) after writing a comment and clicking on publish a message pops up. "Opps something went wrong refresh and try again."  No amount of refreshing, rewriting the comment or anything else will get my comment published.  Worse yet once the "opps" message has appeared it seems to happen with just about every other comment I write in that session!  I've asked google as it seems to be a blogger thing but no help.  The Caches are emptied at least once a day, I'll log out then log back in sometimes that helps sometimes not.  It could just be that this tired old MacBook is taking to long to send the data but for now it and I will just have to limp along together.  So if you have been wondering why I've not visited or commented this might be the answer.  I am sorry I love returning your visits and am often blown away by the work I see that you have done.

Here is a card I put together yesterday.

 Cardz 4 Guyz #267 has the theme of By the Water which inspired this.   First a piece of smooth card stock was baryered with Big 'n Juicy "Waterfall".   The brayer was run in different directions to get a sort of patchwork of blue/blue green.   The stamps are all from a set with a magazine and were stamped in different colours of Memento ink.  First the heron on the left which was then masked.  Next the river banks, all one stamp giving a wonderful sense of the river flowing into the scene.  Lastly the fisherman in his dingy.  I used my new tonic stamping thingie for this which allowed me to stamp the image multiple times and get a deeper cleaner impression.

Chameleon pens in greens, a little pink, some beige and lastly yellow added colour to the scene.  Leaving this idyllic picture of leisure by the water on a clear blue day.

Couple of other challenges that played a part are;

Try it on Tuesday - Hello Spring.  The last couple of days have been much like this blue and calm.  If this continues I can imagine that over the Easter break fishermen will be taking advantage of the opportunity for a little solitary fishing.

Inkspirational - #235 Fur or Feathers of course this is the feathers of the heron.

Once again apologies if you have not had a comment from me it is not because I don't love what you do, I do it is just the unidentified gremlins in the system.  Stay Safe, Keep Well, Wear Your Mask & HAVE FUN
