Monkey business and more

Hi Everybody!

Today the sun is shining, and it's a little less cold than it was

 this past week, even the leaves were frosted each

morning. Hope the sun is shining for you!

At Go Tag Thursday the theme this week is to use pink. I made

another many layered tag, using bits recycled from old cards

and calendars. The floral paper is from Gecko Galz, as is the

vintage image of the little girl. The embellies are all

from my stash. As fast as I use it, it seems to grow more

overnight - anybody else know this problem?

For Art Journal Journey, Hazel's theme of magical mystery tour,

I have an A3 mixed media collage, made in my art group

some weeks back. The background was painted with water colours

 and given extra colour with pastel chalks, the collage bits

were  cut from various magazines. I am also linking to

Simon Monday Challenge, make a splash.

I loved visiting our new relations, the chimps, gorillas and

Orangutans at the zoo. One big difference to some humans

was their social behaviour, which was exemplary:

 Food was thrown in through little windows at the top

of the room so they had to scamper about to grab it:

 The apes also get to make art:

I stood and watched this mother with her child for

some time:

Enjoying time together:

I will show more photos next time!

Have a great day, take care,

and thanks a lot for coming by!
