Leonardo, tea and coffee

Hi Everybody!

Hope the new week will be a good one for you.

Not much change here - cold, sunny and frosty weather,

which I have only been able to see from my balcony,

and my ribs are still very painful. Patience is not my strong point!

For Art Journal Journey, Erika's lovely theme of

'Tel me a story', I have a hybrid page

honouring Leonardo da Vinci.

I wish I could have heard some of the stories that

he had to tell:

Tuesday is also T stands for Tuesday at Elizabeth's blog,

so here a big welcome to all the nice ladies

of the T gang. This piece is also meant as a reminder for

TIOT's 'Anything but square' challenge, and you still have a week 

to link up there.

I made an 8" tag, which was first painted and then collaged with

tea and coffee and other paper napkins. The finished tag was 

sewn onto some blue/beige linen, which I fringed out, and then 

onto corrugated cardboard.

Need I tell you which of these drinks is my fave?

I had a rare visit from my friend Sarah last week, and we baked a cake 

together - I gave the instructions and she did the work! We made a 

cappuccino marble cake.

Here it is fresh from the oven:

And here with cappuccino glaze:

Yummy - help yourselves:

The sunrise was wonderful again:

And now the 2nd amaryllis bloom has opened:

Have a great day, take care,

ad thanks a lot for coming by!
