Hi Everybody!
Today is the last day of the Architecture challenge at Art Journal Journey, and as usual, I have made a collage of all the pieces I made this month. For many of them I made a trip down memory lane and used photos of the places where I have lived at various times. Do call back tomorrow to see the new theme!
This is the last of my A3 journal pages. The wall in the centre is a photo taken near the Rhine. The window and spiders were added digitally. I fussy cut some little spooks and let them fly around, and added some leaves, natural and embossed with Frantage.

We have had good weather for several days, so I have been able to enjoy my walks.
In spring the shores of the Rhine are planted with blue crocuses from one end of the town to the other. They seem to have got a bit muddled, and are blooming among the autumn leaves:
Somebody had picked 2 and laid them here:
We had another beautiful moon and a cold and starry night:
Have a great day you all, happy Halloween, take care,
and thanks a lot for coming by!
Wonderful new page and LOVE the collection of all together, Wonderful photos, too. Hugs, Sarah

Well done page, Valerie -- includes lots of interesting things. Love your leaves, 'cause I know how you created them. Always find weather veins so interesting -- if I had lots of space and money - I would collect them. Enjoy your day dear Valerie. hugs, Donna
ReplyDeleteI don't have the space or money to collect the, either, but I do have a lot of nice pics of them!
DeleteWonderful collage of your beautiful architecture pages Valerie and the Halloween one is terrific though the spider is very scary for me.
ReplyDeleteLove the photographs and I just had to save the anchor one as it 'spoke' to me for a future digi piece. Not sure what it will be about but I am sure it will appear in something. Thank you for sharing your wonderful pictures.
The crocuses are Autumn ones. We used to grow a lot of them years ago and they are always in delicate colours and seem to flop over. Love the blues ones which I haven't seen before.
Have a great day
Love Chrissie xx
Wooo! Fabulous spooky page! Love the photos - especially the crocuses and the berries! There seem to be more berries this year and I'm hoping that the old wives tale about that being a sign of a cold Winter to come is wrong! Have a great day! Chrisx
ReplyDeleteWow.. Deine letzte Seit eund Dein Collage sind ein Traum anzusehen!
ReplyDeleteWas für ein toller Monat! Deine Fotos sind einfach immer toll!
Endlich ist hier auch wieder Sonne... es wurde echt Zeit!
Schönen Samstag Liebs!

Hugs, Mar
love the ghostly children they're quite spooky! I'm off to the theatre today to see Rebecca. Happy hallowe'en! Xx
ReplyDeleteHave fun, wish I was going with! Hugs, Valerie
DeleteThat photo of the 2 crocus laying down-it is spectacular. I love being the arm chair traveler and seeing all your photos. And you saved the best Halloween piece for last-awesome wall. What a good theme for AJJ this month-I love how it worked with Halloween. Hope your day hasn't been too spooky!
ReplyDeleteThose children on your fabulous page look quite scary, loved all your pages on this month collage page.

Wonderful quote to go with your cool haunted Halloween creation Valerie!
ReplyDeleteYour last couple of creations make for a perfect finish to another great creative month at AJJ.
Can't wait to see what November has to offer.
I have heard of autumn blooming crocus but have never seen any...how beautiful they are in the meadow with the fallen leaves!
Happy Halloween! oxo
Wow just wonderful art. I love the Halloween piece. Glad you are having good weather. We are in a storm with heavy winds.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend

Your photos are stunning as always, your collage is a masterpiece and love the window frame in you page today.
ReplyDeleteHi Valerie, it's been a great month of art from you and all so inspiring. You are one talented designer.
ReplyDeleteGreat walking photos too. Have a wonderful weekend. cm
Love the collage of your Architecture pages, and the Halloween pages is fabulous with those children floating around.
ReplyDeleteGlad your weather's been good for your walks, lovely photos today - love those blue crocus, but how strand to be flowering now!

Great last Architectural piece, Valerie, I like the real wall and feel sorry for the poor little ghosts. Great poem too, I'm not going out tonight.
ReplyDeleteLoved the photo of the autumn crocuses and the moon.
I love that you do a collage of each month's pages and I recognize that beautiful brick wall. As a matter of fact I came across it in my files today since you gave it as a file a few months ago.
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Teresa
What lovely All Hallows Eve art! I hope you have a wonderful holiday. I love your photographs as well!
ReplyDeleteI simply adore the way you end each AJJ month with a gorgeous collage. I like that the photos are not all the same size. The photo collage website I use doesn't have that option.
ReplyDeleteYour children are quite frightening and it's the perfect way to finish the month.
I have never seen a crocus, much less one that grew in autumn. These are simply stunning peeking out among the autumn leaves. Hope you enjoy Halloween because it's upon you soon.
Love your final entry for the month. You know I love it when you combine your photos with your art ♥ Nice fall photos :) Once in a while my crocuses will get confused and bloom in the fall too. I think you have to have a lengthy cool down followed by a warm up .
ReplyDeleteFantastic collage to showcase your work during October - love it!
ReplyDelete'All Hallows Eve' is quite spooky with the ghostly looking children and creepy spiders.
Hope you had a good Halloween!

Wow Valerie, your collage is amazing and I love your photographs today xx
