This, that and feathers.

Hi you all!

I am pleased to say it hasn't rained yet today, but it is hot and very humid. Just the weather for doing nothing! We had thunder storms all night, but the lightning did look pretty. I went to the doctor yesterday, and still have to wear my cast for another week. It got taken off, but only for 5 minutes. Next week I will be getting a removable support, which hopefully will be a bit more comfortable and allow me a little more movement.

I have managed to finish a double spread in my journal. I painted the background and did the stenciling some time back. As I can't cut anything with scissors just now, I looked through my bit boxes for stuff already cut out, and found enough to paper several walls, so made a small selection for these pages. I put some strips of tissue tape onto the background first, and then glued on some fragments of old letters, before arranging the figures. I needed the most time for the sentiment, I had to hold the stencil with my right hand, and fill in the letters with my left, and have frequent breaks in between - but I did it! 

I am linking to Paint Party Friday, hosted, as always, by Kristin and Eva.

At Soartful challenges the ladies want to see feathers and bright colours - get your shades ready! I scanned some duck-feathers I picked up a couple of weeks back in the park, and then had digital fun playing with them at Tuxpi.

Have a great weekend, take care,

and thanks a lot for coming by. 

I always appreciate your comments and support!
