T sTands for This and That

Hi Everybody!

Here's wishing us all a good week!

Today I have a new piece to share for Alison's challenge at AJJ. I painted a quick, water-colour background, and added the picture of Beatrix Potter and her sweet creations digitally. Her bunnies, geese, mice and other creatures always remind me of summer:



 This evening we will also be celebrating Elizabeth's T sTands for Tuesday link parTy, so here a warm welcome to all of the nice ladies of the T Gang. This is the 8th anniversary of her tea party, congratulations!

Help yourselves to coffee:


I baked muffins for the party, help yourselves:




And some photos from my week, lots of clouds:











My balloon flowers have started to bloom:




Every evening the birds sit in the tree till it starts to get dark. Sometimes the pigeons claim the tree:




Sometimes the magpies win the race:



And sometimes it's the crows:





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

Weekend Post

Hi Everybody! 

It's weekend, enjoy! I'm planning on another restful weekend with lots of  reading, crafting and feet up time.

For Alison's summer country challenge at AJJ I have a hybrid piece. The backgrounds were hand-painted, and I added some flowers and some digital elements:



And I have a last tag for my vintage challenge at Tag Tuesday.  I used some DP for the background and stitched it onto 2 mats of scrap cardboard. The Leda stamp is from Lost Coast designs. I added some scraps as embellishments:




These are the last of the photos from my farm trip:



A large and beautiful house:


A tiny and very ancient church:





Seating outside, too:



More animals:








And we peeked in at the Riding Stables:




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