Thursday/ Friday Post

Hi Everybody!

The snow here has now disappeared and it's not so cold anymore.  as far as I'm concerned I could do without ice and snow for the rest of the winter! I painted a gnome for Jo's challenge at AJJ using acrylic paints, gold and bronze sprinkles and stenciled snowflakes. I am also linking to Nicole's FFO and Gillena's Friday art fun:






And some thinkies / funnies:







Have a great day, take care,
and thanks a lot for coming by!

  5. Your gnome is very cute, Valerie. Glad to hear that the snow is abating where you are and that conditions are a little more amenable to going outside. Here we are expecting a major storm beginning tomorrow and carrying on through the weekend. We had planned to visit Miriam's daughter and family on Saturday, but that will need to be postponed. We will hunker down until it's over. Take good care of yourself. Hugs and kisses - David

  26. Love your 'Gnomie' - bet he looks even more special with his sprinkles. The perfect subject for Christmas, I love those little gnomes and gonk type figures.
    Thanks for all the funnies/thinkies. I love the cat in his Santa hat.
    Hope you had a lovely Christmas Valerie.
    Special Hugs, Neet xx

  27. LOVE your gnome! And I'm with you. Our snow is melting and the temps way up in the 50s. I hope they stay there. They won't. But a girl can dream, can't she?

  28. Your gnome is delightful, Valerie! And the "yourself" message is truly important to embrace. Wishing you all the best in the coming year! Hugs to you!
