Monday Post

Hi Everybody!

I hope you had a great weekend, and wish us all a good week. Today was cold and windy, but I went out with a friend for a meal and then we walked to the Rhine, which was cold and grey to match the weather! 

Today I have a piece to share for Alison's  autumn colours challenge at AJJ.

And a little bit of spooky has crept into it:

And I have a last tag for my seasons challenge at Tag Tuesday


Some thinkies and funnies etc:









Have a great day, take care,
And thanks a lot for coming by!

Thursday /Friday Post

Hi Everybody! 

Hope your week is going well. I have now got a nasty cold and cough on top of everything else, so I  am not a happy bunny just now. But these things shall pass - the quicker the better! Nicole isn't doing her FFO this week, but I still have faces so I am showing them. The first one is a stylish giraffe. We made something similar in a tastesr session some time back, and I have made another version of it. I will be linking to Gillena's AFFF:



And I played with some new stencils, which was fun:




Some evenings the sun peeks over the house and lights up the tree tops:


I had fun with this cat, too:



And some funnies, thinkies and pics by David Zinn:






Have a great day and a great weekend, take care,
And thanks a lot for coming by!

Hi Everybody!

Hope you all had a great weekend. I'm glad to say that I had a restful one, and spent my time reading, painting and sleeping, yes! And on Saturday I was out with Heike, we got some shopping and went for coffee, yummy. And they gave us samples of their delicious poppy seed cake, yessssssssss!

First off I have a spring tag for my seasons challenge at Tag Tuesday, which runs for another week:


And today I am sharing a journal page, it seems to be about dreams....


I may have shown this one already, but it's one of my faves:


And as always some funnies, thinkies and photos:





Some of my balcony visitors:



A fisher at work - the heron is so good at catching fish:





This blackbird - I call him Jack - comes ever day:


And last but not least, some Canada Geesefor dear David:


I have had to find devious ways to upload my photos as Blogger is not uploading them automatically any more, I hope this hitch soon gets fixed.

Have a great, new, week, take care,
And thanks a lot for coming by

Friday Faces

Hi Everybody!

This week has flown by again, and tomorrow is Friday ,and that means I will be linking to Nicole's FFO and to Gillena's AFFF. It was very hard to get photos up as Blogger is being very uncooperative just now, and that's putting it politely!

I have some various faces to show, starting off with Frida Kahlo:


This is a photo of me as a little girl together with my brother-in law, who was in the US army:


Another hand-made and stitched piece:


And this is the cover of a book I made for a friend:


And some funnies and thinkies:








Have a great weekend, take care,
And thanks a lot for coming by!

New challenge at Tag Tuesday

Hi Everybody!

Sorry I have been MIA but I was just not able to do much these past  2 weeks, but slowly I am getting back to normal, whatever that might be. At Tag Tuesday we have a new challenge, and I am hosting after a very long break. Many thanks to Sandie, Pinky and Michelle who kept everything up and running while I was down. The new theme is seasons, and anything to do with seasons is allowed.

I have a winter tag with Shaun the sheep, I always loved watching this even if it is a children's programme!




And I am re-showing this tag, as we so need peace n the world just now!


And some flowers painted long ago:




I would love to see you joining in with the challenge whic h runs for 2 weeks!

Have a great week, take care,
And thanks a lot for coming by!
