T stands for today

Hi Everybody!

Today is Elizabeth's T stands for Tuesday party and is also

the start of a new challenge at 

TIOT 

*Use tissue*

I made a set of 3 little canvases (4x4") into a 

wall hanging for a neighbour. She wanted

something with yellow and green and

flowers. I used some small tulip

serviettes from my stash,

glued them with gel medium to

the canvases, and then gave the edges

a coat of paint - finished. I mounted them

onto a dark green ribbon with gold edges . I was

not really impressed with them, but the

recipient loved her hanging, so that's the main thing!

At this point I would like to welcome the nice ladies of

the T gang. We had snow this morning, so I was outside on

my balcony before it was light taking photos. I mounted one of them

onto a moonlit sky background, which I grunged up a bit.

I do feed the birds every morning, they are always

waiting in the tree, but the coffee is

just for me! I am of course linking to Art Journal Journey, Erika's lovely theme of tell me a story

Last week I cooked a huge pot of soup made from carrots,

parsnips and sweet potatoes, and spiced with

garlic and ginger. It was good served with a splash of sour cream!

My fave water glass has a black cat on it, she looks like my

Kitty did:

The clear circle on the other side of the glass shows the

cat again, magnified by the liquid:

And I love making patterns in my soup - perhaps

I'm in my second childhood!?

And this bread twist was delicious - filled with tomato and cheese,

and with lots of seeds on top!

My Scandinavian bird hopped down to have a look:

And the rocking horse came over too - I think she wants

to send best wishes to Elizabeth & her boys.

(The rocking horse was a present from dear Sabine)

And some photos from my snowy walk on Monday:

Photo bombed from a loudly squawking crow!

Have a great day, take care,

and thanks a lot for coming by!
