Come And Connect With Me:
As usual very helpful, I mostly struggle with that.
Don’t know if you remind me….. it was a long time ago…
Can’t keep up now with your posts, but I had a quick look-through and I am pleased to see that you sign your artwork now 🙂
Btw, I left a message on skype should you ever be there.
Summer greetings from Germany

Hello Rena, I’ve missed you! I was just wondering what you have been up to the other day. I hope you have been finding time to get creative! Big Summer Greetings back from the UK. Sorry if you left me a message on Skype. I don’t really use it.
Thank you for popping in today though and I am glad you have been busy, hopefully it has been a good busy!
All the best
Kim
Hi Kim,

I have missed you too and hopefully I can manage to keep track now. The days are simply too short.
Hope to see you soon

Hiya Rena,
No sorry, I haven’t! I just don’t like Skype so I don’t use it. 😓

Have a fun day
