And another one....

Hi everybody!

Hope you are enjoying your weekend. Here in Rhineland we had sunshine, and the temps were a lot milder, so it looks like we will be having a few pleasant days.

This is another one of the Halloween she-art pieces I made last week. The background was painted, sprayed, and colour was added with pastels. I stamped some spiders' webs and bats. The witch is from the Gecko Galz collage sheet 'witchy women'. The frame around the witch is from Jessica Sporn's frames stencil.

At Moo Mania the theme this time is 'eyes', so I have put some eyes (Flonz crafts) and my text on a moo card. The witch, cat and hat are stamps from Close to my heart, and have been embossed with extra fine EP. I used less ink than usual on the witch, so she appears to be transparent. This was really just a bit of fun with left overs. I am linking to AJJ - she-art and Moo Mania - eyes.

Today I made the most of the good weather and went for a walk again, along the Rhine Damn, admiring the meadows and trees, and the ships and barges which are constantly passing up and down the river.

Then I spent some time climbing up to the top of the castle ruins, and admiring the wonderful view from the top - which in the old days was useful for watching for enemies and stopping ships to exert taxes....

 

This little motor boat was so quick that I only just caught it:

 

And as much as I like modern art, I think they could have found a better place for this piece than on the castle ruins....Perhaps he's supposed to be keeping guard.

 

And of course, there are dungeons....

 

But this was my fave pic today - somebody has added a graffiti to the public toilets opposite the church, making a smiling face - perhaps he was just happy to have found them on time. The light reflections are from the stained glass windows of the church.

 Hope that you have enjoyed your tour today - I certainly did.

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