Monday-Tuesday Post

Hi Everybody!

Hope you all enjoyed your weekend and are feeling fit and well. I am starting with a few photos taken last week on one of my walks:




I had fun playing with stencils, colour and collage:





And as Halloween is coming, I have 2 pages from my Halloween Journal:


And a nice cup of special coffee:


This was on my window on Sunday:
What is it?


So true;

I will be  linking to Elizabeth's TsfT on Tuesday.

I hope to get a new post up for the end of the week. 

Till then have a great week, take care,
And thanks a lot for coming by!

  4. Yes, wonderful, these are beautiful autumn days... and right, you have to take advantage of them... this beauty is very short.
    I really like your stencil work.
    A hug for you from Viola
    I wish you a good week.

  5. Whoop-de-doo, Valerie. Today we have cleavage! I shall have to carry my iPad with me wherever I go today! Actually this morning I am meeting a friend for coffee at a bakery where they make wood-fired bagels, so it will be lox and cream cheese on a bagel for breakfast. No cleavage though. I always associate wood-fired bagels with Jewish delis, with paunchy old men in yarmulkes, but this business is run by southeast Asians. They do it right too. The bagels are delicious. They also make a great sourdough bread so I expect that a loaf will be tucked under my arm when I leave. I’ll be checking for cleavage, and were it mid July I might find some, but not at the end of October at 3 degrees. Bagels and bread will have to do it! Hugs and kisses - David

    1. Hi David, I am so glad that I have filled your longing for cleavage, I thought you would like this one! And your deli with bagels, lox and cream cheese makes m mouth water. We have nothing like that here, unfortunately, or I would be a regular customer, but once a week I have my lox and creamcheese, yessssss! I can imagine that there is not much cleavage at this time of year!. Here it is relatively mild, but I still need warm clothes when I go out, and I would never show my cleavage at this time of the year! Have a great week, take care, hugs! xxxxxxxx

  7. It looks like you're having some nice walks. Mine have slowed down because if I take Maddie, she stops to smell so much now that she can't see where she is. But that's ok. And I'm loving your stenciled piece and wow to the Halloween art. It looks perfect. Have a spooky new week Valerie, and Happy T day if you join us with this post too. hugs-Erika

  17. Great photos of your walk! Yes, it's important to walk regularly. I try to walk every day but the last few days the weather has been so atrocious that I have taken the car for relatively short distances.
    I love your stencils. Do you make them yourself? really nice.
    I don't know what that bug is, sorry.
    Yes, buy art from living artists! That's a good one.
    Happy T-Day,
    Lisca
