Birds of a feather....

Hi Everybody!

It's weekend - enjoy!

The weather is not quite as sunny as it was the past 2 days,

but it's a bit milder, so that makes up for it. I was able to have a short

walk again. I wanted to pick up some lovely shells and feathers

I saw, but can't bend down yet because of my ribs.

 I will find some another time!

For Art Journal Journey, Erika's theme of 'tell me a story',

I have 2 pages in my 2nd new journal,

which is already 'old' and nearly full!

The first page is a heap of words, you have to make 

the story yourself! The 2nd page is about childhood

 memories, I used to love watching my aunt cook 

and bake, and being able to 'help', and

lick the spoon....

I am in a tag phase just now. This one is about 10", and once again

made of recycled cardboard, partly peeled. I covered it with a mix of Golden crackle paste mixed with sky blue paint. The Euro shop recently 

had a variety of expensive brand names in crafty stuff for 1€ each, 

which was great. I roughed it up with a palette knife and 

added some Frantage EP. The other colours were added with

Gelatos and a water-brush. The birds are from a serviette,

which I pasted onto thin card and then fussy cut. 

The red berries were made from small balls (Pentart),

painted red, and the eggs are larger balls painted egg-shell blue

and then crackled. The nest was embellished with a remnant

of Christmas decoration band and some feathers.Then

I sewed it to an old calendar page.

We once again had a wonderful sunrise, enhanced by

dark clouds:

Have a great day, take care, 

and thanks a lot for coming by!
