Hi Everybody!

Today we are starting a new challenge at TIOT -

🕚 It's all about time  🕑

As always you have 2 weeks to link to us, and projects of all formats are welcome. Don't forget to hop over to our blog and see the lovely pieces from my teamies!

Blogger is playing up at the moment. The photos keep disappearing, so I hope they will be visible. I made  a mixed media piece using painting, collage, sewing, stamping and more :





And a piece for Tracey's challenge at AJJ:



Some funnies, thinkies and photos:












The harvest moon:




A spooky moon from Sunday evening:






Have a great day, take care,

  6. Your TioT page is outstanding. I absolutely adore the clocks you chose. All so very different, yet wonderful. Beautifully done, Valerie.

    That's also a stunning entry for Tracey's theme, too. It's like the birds are looking into the windows and seeing the beauty of the colors of October. Thanks for sharing this on AJJ, too.

    Love the moon shots and the beautiful autumn colors in your town. Cute funnies, too.

  11. Such a fabulous mixed media page! Loving all those different clock faces cascading out of the man's head - perfect 😁. The autumnal colours and framed images are gorgeous too, as are your autumnal photos with those pretty colours in the sunshine. Your harvest moon and spooky skies are such a treat too. Thanks for sharing and Happy wishes! Hugs Jo x

  12. Sewing and stamping, collaging and amalgamating, painting and more. What a busy woman you have been, Valerie. I stamped my feet a couple of times to scare a stray cat from the backyard. Does that count? Yesterday morning we had frost here and I had to scrape the windshield on the car. That was foot-stamping weather. Nothing to sew, however, no collages to create. Miriam has been the creative one of late, working on new quilt patterns and designs, and selling up a storm in her ETSY shop. Yesterday we had an appointment with the bank to go over our vast holdings and tax implications and all that esoteric stuff. It's great because the young lady we now deal with has gone from a lowly teller when I first met her about a dozen years ago to a certified financial advisor. She is quite charming too, and fair of face and form. I am sure she will have a grand career. It's already Tuesday, and I will be going out the door shortly to meet my Tuesday group to conduct them on an ornithological ramble to stir their hearts. Then, a large group has signed up for another walk I will be leading for our nature club tomorrow. Many of that group will be total rookies,eager to learn, full of questions, amazed at what we will see. I will bask in the glory of being their guru, if only for a couple of hours. Then, I will come home, make lunch for Miriam and me, and do the dishes. That will knock me off my cloud in a hurry! Hugs and kisses. David

    1. Hi David! I like to keep myself busy, stops me thinking about housew**k! Stamping your feet on the ground is not quite the stamping we indulge in! I am sure Miriam does all of the sewing at your place, while you are left to stamp your feet and scrape ice and make lunch! Have a lovely ramble, I'm sure you will be able to enthrall your acolytes with dozens of bird names and types, and they will be amazed at what you know, as I always am when I read about you adventures. Have fun, and don'T break the dishes when ou do the washing up! Hugs to you both!

  14. That is such a clever take on time. Wow. Wow. Wow. I LOVE the clocks and the head. You outdid yourself with that one dear Valerie. And your AJJ piece is amazing also. I like how you used a window. Very clever also. And definitely perfect for Tracey's challenge. The moon shot's are amazing as well. I love the Native American meme you included too. I hope you are having another beautiful sunshine autumn day today like in your photos, and hope all is well. Hugs-Erika

  23. I can't believe it's another TioT challenge, time (no pun intended) is definitely running away with itself this month. Love the theme, and a clever composition with all those elements. Your October theme windows are quite eerie with the girls face and ravens a waiting.. I nearly choked on my hot chocolate at the Broom stick show off haa haa!!! Hugs Tracey xx
