New Freebie kit start again

Hello :)
I think I have a few more grey hairs ...just when I think one job is done the next one is creeping up on me !
You know I told about sorting those files into folders on my external drive last post? Welllll….. this job turns out larger than expected. I was looking for this "Resource folder" I had for years ...as far back as when I started designing. That damn thing disappeared. First thought : Oh no !!! My resources ...lost ! " But not to worry -I kept all the zip files. I smiled. But that smile soon disappeared. Just picture a 2 TB drive with a large folder labeled "Zip files" … How long have I been designing? Yeah.... more than 10 years.... see what I mean? There is a staggering amount of zips in this folder. It's like searching for a needle in a haystack. I have alone over 5000 font files , no clue how many Poser program files, PSP files, Photoshop files. How hard can it be to find some lost overlays and other resources ? (being sarcastic here)

But to more pleasant things now... I have been creative again.
Another botanical drawing on brown paper.
Ampersand for a challenge. This took me hours !
Greenery wreath in watercolor
And I finished this one not long ago - Watercolor Dreamcatcher for another challenge.

Besides all this I did a little spring cleaning and also planted more seeds.

And 3 years with a Fitbit, healthier eating and moving more is paying off. Here is the math : I am 2 1/2 kilos away from my goal weight of 75 kilos. At my heaviest I was 92 kilos.
My weight before I had Shaun ,when I was 23 years old was 73 kilos = if I loose 4 1/2 kilos more I will be the same size as 28 years ago.
I am definitely aiming for that as next goal :)

I should have taken before and after pictures , but as I was not doing a diet, just a life style change, I didn't think of that.

And it's time for a new freebie kit... this used to be a store kit , but now as freebie. Fitting in with the time of the year ...Mardi Gras. But can be used for Dress up parties and all sorts of fun stuff.






A really fun, bright and colorful kit :) 
More parts in my next post again.... now back to searching for those damn files :) 
Hugs Snowy

I love the Dream Catcher. It is really beautiful. Your work is really good Snowy. I'm impressed at how much you manage to get done. I'm trying to work up the courage to wash the dishes. hahaha. Congratulations on your weight loss. Don't go over board and lose too much. Be healthy. This kit looks quite interesting. I can't wait to see all of it. You have a wonderful week, hugs, Edna B.

Congratulations on your wieght loss. You are doing a great job there!!
And just as Edna says: I am kind of jealous even to read hbow much of everything you get done! have days that it goes not bad at all, but other days I just feel lazy, kind of tired, not really energetic.
should be coming back a more when weather turns to be warmer and sunnier, it seems to have effect on me.
Oh my, you have a terrible job to look for thbose files you want to find, LOL!
See, to keep too much stuff ion a drive isn;t always good either.
Always difficult to find a good balance in that.
well, good luck sweetie.
Have a wonderful week,
Hug
