T sTands for sTripes, doTs and sTress

Hi Everybody!

Here's wishing us all a good new week!

Today I am sharing a face with lots of dots, diamonds and colours - crazy, but I like it! I have made a few like this and will show them bit by bit, things are just rather stressful just now. This was painted with acrylics onto an A3 page:





And I magicked  some flowers onto it so I can link to Aimeslee's 'flowers' challenge at AJJ:


Some flower photos:








And this evening we will be celebrating Elizabeth's T sTands for Tuesday, where we share something drink related.

I can't find my drink pics today, so here ice and cappuccino from Café  Roma in Neuss taken some time back:






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

Weekend Post

Hi Everybody!

It's weekend - enjoy! I think many of us will be watching the coronation of King Charles III on Saturday, it will be a turbulent and exciting day.

For Aimeslee's  'flowers'challenge at AJJ I have another journal page made with a freebie from the Graphics Fairy. I placed the image on a hand painted background, and added the flowers, which were all hand painted. Then I added a sentiment, which is very fitting fot the world  just now:



And some photos from my walk today:










The blue fish reminded of the fish Erika showed this week:



Have a fun weekend, whatever you do!



And thanks a lot for coming by!

TGIF once again!

Hi Everybody!

It's Friday, and that makes me happy. Yesterday I had my appointment at the oral surgeon, and he successfully and skilfully removed the roots from my jaw. He gave me 2 injections and after a few minutes began the treatment. I never felt anything apart from some pressure and then it was done - all stitched up and ready to go. The weather was nice so I walked home through the park and took some photos, but by the time I got home I was all in and fell asleep in my armchair, where I stayed for the rest of the day. And before I went home I was presented with a 'hero of the day' award! Aparently, all patients get one. On the reverse of the certificate are tips and tricks to help if things get painful!

I feel fine now, albeit a  bit tired, and I'm happy it's over - I just need to go for a control visit on Monday. And I am looking forward to a  quiet weekend!

For Aimeslee's 'flowers' challenge at AJJ I have a quick journal page. The focal image was a freebie from the Graphics Fairy. I placed it on a hand painted background and added some floral embellishments and words:


And for Nicole's FFO I have some faces.

This one shows my sister with her son when  he was just a few weeks old. In the meantime they are both dead, so sad:


And another of my face creations:




And yet another one:


The tag is meant for Michele's  'hats' challenge at Tag Tuesday, and you have plenty of time to join in.  So get your thinking cap / hat on and join us! And we have faces again!



And I am of course linking to Gillena's Art for fun Friday.

Our local park is allowed to grow wild, and is only mowed twice a year - and the grass is used for hay. I love walking through here:













This house is on my way home:


And my hero's certificate:


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