    Swap Tea

    October 18, 2011 - By 
    I confess…this post is scheduled.
    I am enjoying some late evening tea in my cute, “new to me’ chickie mug, while writing this post. Tomorrow…well today as you are reading this is just too busy for …much like so many Tuesdays.
    Why is it that Tuesday is the most filled day on my calendar?? …Frustrating.
    I did want to share some fun mail I picked up the other day though.
    I got my color swap pages from Dianne. Fantastic pages.
     Love this watercolor bird.
    I’ve been ito watercolors myself these days.
     Fun fabrics and trim…love it!
    A combo of watercolors, fabric and stitching…
    truly calling my name.
    Seriously!
     Doodles that I envy…
    Plus some fun tags…
    Feel free t drop by Kimmies blog today for the other Tea Tuesday posts…I know I will be later.

    Sneak peeks

    October 15, 2011 - By 

    I can’t show all of these pages but I really want to! They aren’t even finished and likely won’t
    be for a while.
    I injured my thumb on my right hand (dominant hand) in some way a couple of days ago, so I keep having to stop working on basically anything and ice it frequently.
    Oh, the frustration.

    Pages have landed in Cyprus

    October 12, 2011 - By 

    I’ve been anxiously awaiting confirmation that the package I sent to Cath in Cyprus had arrived safely.  I was getting very worried even though the post office assured me that things can get tied up in customs from time to time.
    Cath is another member of the colors swap I’ve been particpating in over the last few months.
    Her colors were yellow and black. Not my usual fair but that’s where the challenge lies.

     

     The photos are not the best…I can’t remember why anymore but alas…once they are sent off there isn’t much chance for retakes.

     

     This one is a kalidescope that I made from
    a photo of a marigold.

     

    These black eyed susans are from my in-laws garden.
    Thanks to Elizabeth 
    for the awesome yellow handmade paper!!
