Hi Everybody!
It's a chilly day here today, which started out with frost and mist. I went for an early walk, and will stay home for the rest of the day, get the laundry done, and spend time in my arty kitchen, cooking and crafting.
I have 2 more pages from my journal, once again using pieces of JD tissues, stenciling, and some collaged pieces. The background was water-coloured. The sentiment was written by hand:
I am linking to Paint Party Friday
In contrast the cool, grey mist this morning:
Nature is the best artist, that's for sure!
Have a great day, take care,
and thanks a lot for coming by!
That fog has created some dramatic effects. But it does look a little chilly and a good day to stay home. Your journal page is so bright and cheery with those wonderful colors. Glad the grey day didn't inspire you to stay black and white in your art. I do feel like you got your art flow going for sure! Hugs-Erika
ReplyDeleteThose misty and frosty photos are fabulous, your must have frozen getting them! But it looks wonderful. And I love the great contrast to your colourful journal pages, which are very vibrant and bold. Have a fun day, cook yourself something good, and enjoy it! Hugs, Sarah
ReplyDeleteHello dear Valerie!
ReplyDeleteLove your fabulous journal pages, the sea theme and all the beautiful details with the stamps and tissues.
Like how you painting the background! Your work is always admirable!
Magnificent pictures from the foggy surroundings and the frost on the branches and the grasses! It looks so mysterious!!
Thank you for sharing this beauty of nature! Wishing you a warm and relaxing day! Hugs!

DeleteI like the Sea Queen's advice on the colorful page. The pics you took of the hoar frost are very dramatic and eerie. Looks very cold. best to stay inside and follow the Sea Queen's advice. Enjoy your day

ReplyDeleteI can feel the crisp air in your misty/frosty landscape. What a refreshing walk that must be!

DeleteFröhlich kreative Seiten hast du da gestaltet, die Meerfrau gefällt mir besonders. Deine Nebelfotos vermitteln eine geheimnisvolle Stimmung und auch die frostigen Fotos sehen super aus. Hier bei uns war es auch feuchtkalt bis regnerisch.
