TGIF - FFO & AFFF

Hi Everybody!

This has been a very busy week, and tomorrow I have an early appointment at the doctor's , so I must try to get to bed a bit earlier today.

My first piece today - also with a face - is for Erika's 'It's on the calendar' challenge at AJJ. I re-used an old 10" tag on the calendar:





And this is a drawing I made from a photo of me, several years back:



And I love this one.


A smart dog:


And Heike is back home, we went for coffee / hot chocolate today. I missed her while she was in hospital:


Look at mother cat:


This is a new painting, painted over an old collage that I didn't like. I'm not sure if I like this one either, perhaps I will change some parts, or perhaps not - we shall see! Definitely a WIP






I am linking to Nicole's FFO and Gillena's AFFF:

Have a great weekend, take care,
And thanks a lot for coming by!

Midweek Post

Hi Everybody!

Time has run away today, so no time for bla bla! I have another piece for Erika's It's on the calendar challenge at AJJ :

Once again I used the old calendar. The background was stencilled, and then I used a photo of my little winter birds. I wrote the text and added a few little embellishments:






And a few thinkies / funnies:








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

T sTands for Coffee, Frost and snow

Hi Everybody!

On Monday evening we will be starting Elizabeth's T sTands for Tuesday celebration, so here a warm welcome to all of the nice ladies of the T Gang who visit here.









On Saturday I went for a walk - with a short break by Bakery Bolton before I walked home. I was surprised to see the moon in the sky at 2 in the afternoon:



In the evening the moon rose higher, it was a lovely evening:


And in our little town the carnivalists were already having fun:



The metal pole against the wall shows the height of the floods The highest one is almost as high as the wall, that must have been awful:



And before I forget, I have a messy collage (it was fun!) for Erika's 'It's on the calendar' challenge at AJJ. I found several old calendars - unused - and they are coming in handy just now:







Have a great, new week, take care, keep warm!

This and that for the weekend

Hi Everybody! 

Here's wishing us all a happy and relaxing weekend!

Today I have another piece for Erika's 'It's on the calendar' challenge at AJJ:


And a mix of photos/thinkies/funnies:




Taken from my window/balcony:



On my window ledge:







This isn't mine, but I would love it:



And the last one is a drawing I made from my dear dog Struppi, back in the early 1980s, time flies:


Have a great weekend, take care,
And thanks a lot for coming by!
