Changing my mind....

Hi Everybody!

There's lots going on today, so I'd better  get started

straightaway. It's Elizabeth's T stands for Tuesday today. so

I would like to give a warm welcome to all of the nice ladies

of the T Gang.

We are also starting a new challenge at TIOT 

💝💖Hearts and flowers💖💝

As always you have 2 weeks to join in and projects of all

formats are welcome.

My piece was made with a collage onto corrugated

cardboard, using scraps of serviettes etc., and stitched with a heart. 

I placed it inside a photographer's paper frame, 

embossed with pearl structure paste and with added flowers:

The only problem was, I decided that I didn't like it. So I took the

corrugated piece out and used it as a cover on my second new journal:

This means that I have 2 journals with more or less matching covers:

And what about the paper frame?

I found another vintage photo from my dear Erika (taken in 1916), and

put her into it. I think the vintage style fits better:

I added some stitching and some natural flowers,

picked here from a tree in the front garden. I went over the stitching and round the photo with some gold chameleon way from Pentart:

And we're still not finished! I have my last piece

for Erika's lovely theme at AJJ. A HUGE thank you to Erika for all the lovely pages she made, and to all the lovely ladies who have supported 

us there.

I am leaving AJJ in order to have more time for myself. 

I will also be teaching two art classes each week at a 

local art school, for the next 8 weeks,

 and am looking forward to that very much.

And you can help yourselves to oat cookies,

extra delicious with molasses, cinnamon and ginger:

I went for a coffee last week at the Einhorn, (unicorn) and it was good:

Have a great day you all, take care,

and thanks a lot for coming by!
