Hello there, and welcome back to this week’s #PoCoLo - a friendly linky which I co-host with Suzanne, where you can link any blog post published in the last week. We know you’ll find some great posts to read, and maybe some new-to-you blogs too, so do pop over and visit some of the posts linked, comment and share some of that love. Please don’t link up posts which are older as they will be removed from the linky, and if older posts are linked then please don’t feel that it’s necessary to comment on those. If you were here last week it was great to have you along, if you’re new here this week we’re pleased you’ve joined us.

I hope you’re managing to keep warm - it’s been pretty chilly here with the ‘feel like’ temperatures reaching -6 and much lower than I’d like. I’ve not been out much, but of course the day that I needed to go out was the day with a frost on the car, typical hey? It was so cold though that the frost scrapings hadn’t cleared from around the rear window by the time I was heading back again after midday - I don’t think I’m built for cold-weather living!

The reason I went out was for the first of a course of classes I’ve signed up for to learn how to make something respectable using Gelli Plate printing. It’s much easier than I thought, and a bit peculiar too and you can see just some of my first attempt creations in the pile of artwork below - they’re not bad, but some refinement will make them better! It was good fun though, and I’m heading back next week and will share more about the craft, and how I get on here soon.
