2nd on the 2nd and more

Hi Everybody!

First of all I have a quick hybrid journal page for Alison's challenge at AJJ, where she wants to see pockets or tags on the pages. I used one of my tags - I have loads of tags I can use for this purpose! I placed it onto a hand-painted background. The floral corners, dancer and text were added in Serif:

For Elizabeth's 2nd on the 2nd I have a selection of journal pages made in 2015 for a 'time' themed challenge:

And a repeat of the old toys and other articles in the farm museum:

So many kids today spend their time playing with electronic devices, but never get to learn the wonder of playing with things like these and crating their own realms of fantasy.

Have a great day, take care,

and thanks a lot for coming by!

Weekend post

Hi Everybody!

Thanks again for all the good wishes. I am having a quiet and restful weekend, reading, listening to music and audio books, and in general trying to keep cool during these 'dog days'. 

I have another A3 journal page, made on a loose page, so I was able to sew the edges. the background was gessoed and painted before I collaged lots of napkin scraps and stenciled a dragonfly, I am linking to Simon Monday Challenge, art journaling, and to Paperbabe stamps, summer:

And some more photos from the farm, where they also have a wonderful collection of old farm implements and toys, which I will show another day:

Have a great weekend, take care, 

and thanks a lot for coming by!
