Thursday Post

 Hi Everybody!

Hope your week is going well. After the cold and misty weather from Tuesday, Wednesday was a wonderful 'golden' day, from sunrise to sunset, and I enjoyed it. Tomorrow arctic winds will be hitting us....But I enjoyed this wonderful day.

For Wendy's birds challenge at AJJ I have a 'scribble' journal page. I often make pages like this when I am watching TV,  or in the pre-covid days while sitting in a café. These pages are always inspired by what's going on around me or in TV as the case may be:








I enjoyed my walk along the Rhine, and watched men trimming back the trees to make them safe for winter storms:



Lots of glowing colours:






Looking down the Rhine:


And up the Rhine:



Not many booths at the Rhine market because of Covid:


I walked through the park, which was the moat in the old days:


And then up the ramp and along the bastions (fortified city walls):





I always imagine the watchmen patrolling the bastions in past times:




Huge fungi on a tree stump:



Looking from the bastion to the Rhine:


And the bastion leading back home:


Past the meadows:


Flowers on the street corner:


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

Midweek Post

Hi Everybody!

Yesterday I had several appointments and the day sped by much too quickly. Hope I get more done today!

I am sharing a very simple piece for Wendy's bird challenge at AJJ. The A4 background was made with a piece of wallpaper from an old sample book. I added some highlighting with a white pen, collaged some white flowers, and sewed it to a white background - finished!





And I have another tag for my 'pets' challenge, with a wonderful quote from 
James Herriot:



Early morning mist and frost - beautiful!

















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