Lambs in the meadow



Good Morning Peeps, hope everyone is having a good week and coping with the latest snap of cold weather.....it was -4 here again this morning and pretty white.

Just a very quick share and apologies for not going into detail, but not feeling good still, I ended up at hospital yesterday as the infection associated with my recent tooth and gum problems has taken on a life of it's own - the joys of MS and a compromised immune system.

This is one of the cards I did for a recent magazine article and I understand it's now on sale so I'm safe to blog it. I really should make a point of buying magazines as I never normally get to see what's in print, the US ones usually send a gratis copy but the UK ones don't seem to very often

Have a god day and thanks for popping in, I will be round as and when but it's slow going.

Glad the lambs were on your gorgeous card and not in the fields outside, they'd be too cold!! Hope your infection clears up soon, it must be such a drag!! Sending you cyber hugs, my friend. xx

Hope you are feeling better. This is a gorgeous scene and I also love your beautiful flower cards. I cannot get around each day due to my FM but do the best I can. The main thing is to relax and enjoy. xx Flora

Brenda yet another little piece of awesome art. I so love this as I can relate to it, having grown up on a farm where my Dad did a little subsistence farming with a few sheet, cattle, pics, poultry etc.

Sorry to hear your health hasn't been so good of late, hospital for a tooth is a bit much! Love your card by the way, Jx

So sorry to hear you've been in hospital again Brenda. Hope they can sort you out with some medication to ease the problem.
This is a fabulous scene you have created - and it won't be long before there are lambs in the fields (probably already in some places.)I miss having them in the field next to the garden and didn't see any last year.Boo hoo.

This one is gorgeous Brenda. It must be very gratifying to know that it was published (even if you don't get to see the actual magazine). Hope you'll manage to get this infection under control soon. Take care!

So sorry to hear about your jaw problems - those can be very nasty indeed.
The card is delightfully atmospheric & I love the colours of the scenery - not too different from the view across the fields walking along the Brecon Canal.
Take care of yourself & much love from me.

Jane said...

So sorry to hear you have been so unwell Brenda and I really hope things improve really quickly. There is nothing worse than tooth problems. Your card is so spring like, the lambs looks very woolly! Take care xx

Kat said...

Lovely peaceful scene Brenda. Not so peaceful here. Went to WRI tonight and the wind and rain was horrible. Bit slushy in the car park where we meet but water everywhere at home!

My niece got home from hospital yesterday and is raring to go. In spite of her MS when she's well enough she's never at peace. She does realise though that after a broken hip she needs to behave and not try to do too much or it'll just be worse for her. I sent her some of my baking yesterday so that'll keep her away from baking....for a minute or two!

Sorry to hear the infection due to your tooth and gum problems has turned nasty. Hope they've given you something to sort it out and you start to feel better soon.

Take care,

Kat xx

Dear Brenda so sorry to hear you hav not been good :( A close friend of mine also has MS and also gets infections very easy + they take longer to heal too. But I hope you feel better very soon.
Your card is lovely and reminds me that very soon we will be seeing lots of baby lambs in the fields soon!
