Monday Mix

Hi Everybody!

For Susi's theme of collage with a twist at Art Journal Journey 
I have another hybrid page. The orange background is part of a page in my 2nd new journal, placed onto a water colour background with a filter. Then I collaged the headless lady and the text, the blue something in place of her head is part of the background. The digital bits are from Mischief Circus.




Yesterday afternoon the wind chased the clouds across the sky:




And this lovely sunrise welcomed me when I got up this morning:


On my walk I saw some strange fungi:



These ones look like gone-off yeast dumplings:



Most of the trees have lost nearly all of their leaves:





The bridge is good 20 minutes walk away, but I zoomed it in 
and it looks like it's right here:




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

  3. Wonderful and fun journal page, love the strong colours. Great photos, too, and those dumpling fungi look like something dead and decaying - really yucky! Have a good start in the new week, hugs, Sarah

  5. Love / Believe / Magic - such great words and treats. Wonderful sky photos and the fungi are truly interesting. I can never walk past those weird ones without taking a photo. The trees around here look about the same. Last week's winds took a lot of leaves away.

  6. A real fun figure of the headless lady, its a wonderful journal spread.
    Loved the sunrise photos, though the fungi looks a bit suspect.

    Die Himmelfotos sind ein Traum, aber auch diese Baumpilze sind fantastisch gut getroffen. Fotojagd gelungen.

  8. Great new header Valerie. I love it. And its a really interesting page today. Almost feels a little like Halloween with the faceless body. :) And I find it amazing how November looks so different from October. I love the bridge photo today. Hope it was a great weekend. Hugs-Erika

  10. You find the best images to use for your digital collages. This one is almost spooky.

    Those leaves at the base of those trees make me wish our leaves turned colors other than brown. These are stunning reds, oranges, and yellows. You took gorgeous photos, and that bridge is incredible. Some of the fungi looked like scoops of ice cream, but also dumplings. Hope your Monday is wonderful.

  11. When I posted my comment, your new blog header came up. Seems those geese are everywhere, even on your blog header. Love how they are holding that banner/bunting.

  12. Wonderful page I think I will be laughing at that image all day. Fabulous new header as well.

    Terrific photographs-the fungi ones look like someone dropped their ice cream. My favourite is the lady with the bicycle and the wonderful things surrounding her centre stage. Wonder who owned the other bike that is laid down? Help I've fallen in the water moment.

    Have a great day

    Love Chrissie xx

  14. Your colourful AJJ piece is terrific. Great new header too, looks so fresh and that's a sweet bunting.
    As ever your photographs are wonderful, I always love the sky ones.

  15. A fabulous page Valerie! I forgot to mention your clever geese yesterday - a great header for sure! I love your photos and I am most impressed by your zoom - I only have a little 'Coolpix' camera…or my phone camera! I leave the long shots to hubby! The fungi does look fascinating! Hugs, Chrisx

  16. Wow what a fun, windy walk.
    You must have a great camera to catch that bridge.
    Love the background of your piece.

  17. Your AJJ piece is fabulous Valerie - and a bit sc-fi-ish - reminded me of a DR Who episode.
    Great photos - especially the fungi and the clouds.

  19. Your AJJ page is really funny...I think. It has been fun to see how everybody is avoiding faces....LOL
    Glorious sun rise photo.
    Some of the fungi look like melted marshmallows that got left too close to the fire pit.

  24. Love the faceless art today ♥ I haven't noticed mush fungi this late in the season but we have been extremely dry. It did rain last night ans is suppose to off and on all day so maybe I'll see some now. Mini and I got soaked on our morning walk this am. She didn't like it and I agree with her.
