Weekend Post

Hi Everybody!

I'm happy to say that the big frost has left us for the time being, and the temperatures today went up, and should stay mild for the net week, so that's good.

Today I have a hybrid tag for Wendy's 'cats' theme at Tag Tuesday. The images used are from The Graphics Fairy, Serif and Mischief Circus:

The weather was very changeable. First it was very cold and wet, wet, wet for 2 days:

The Christmas market being set up:

After that we had freezing mist:

Then the sun came out but it was extremely cold:

Look who went fishing:

He flew off when a dog barked:

The watchman on the castle ruins doesn't mind the weather:

But I love our little town in all weathers:

I hope the weather has been kind to you this past week!

Have a great day, take care, 

and thanks a lot for coming by!

Chilling!

Hi Everybody!

Wednesday started off here frosty and misty, but it was great to see the sun coming up through the mist, and it stayed with us all day.  So good after the cold and rainy weather of the past days!

Today is time for Rain's Thursday Art Date, and her theme is 'chilling'. This could be interpreted in various ways, but I decided to go with cold and chilling weather.

The first piece is a digital journal page using Victorian scrap images:

This is a combination of a photo (The view from my window), a water-coloured background and a vintage clock-face. The snow-flake edging on both pieces is from Serif:

I am also linking to Paint Party Friday and to Soma's Wandering Camera

And some photos of frost, ice and mist taken around here - you might need a hot drink to look at them:

Frozen spiders' webs:

The neighbour's roses:

A frosty walk with my shadow:

Ice at the Rhine:

Ice at the castle ruins:

Keep warm, have  a great day,

and thanks a lot for coming by!
