Springtime miracles


Hello everyone calling in to see me today.



I am still slowly using up some mop up second generation pages in my journal,
the butterfly stencil was used here and I think you would agree that there was far to much colour on it to waste.
I even mopped up the paint that I was colouring the die cut flowers with. The sentiment is an old rubber stamp .

Each spring we see flowering miracles in our gardens  and perhaps take them for granted.

























The top two photos on the left  show some early  spring flowers in my garden . The pot  welcomes folk to my home on the front steps.


At last my photo with  reference to T Day over at

where we are always made very welcome  with a drinks relates post.
But this is work in progress and I will share it  soon, it will be a bit more colourful than today's page.


On the left is a photo of a digital collage  page I  have just shared my other blog  for a weekly challenge
 I try to enter. 
 It does have a cup of coffee on a tin. In case my coffee drinking friends  wonder I do occasionally  drink coffee . Coffee is the choice of my family, its me who drinks the tea.



My journal page at the top of the post  I will be linking to Jo's theme..... Hello Springtime  at

I am also adding a reminder for our current theme  at Try it on Tuesdays
Say it with flowers.


Thank you for stopping by, I hope you have a lovely day.

  6. OH WOW. Before I forget, I LOVE your pavers and the pot of flowers on your porch. I also am impressed with how you managed to save all that ink from the other butterfly. It's a beautiful spring inspired beauty and great for Jo's theme at Art Journal Journey.

    I think your tea cup is wonderful. So YOU'RE the odd one out who prefers tea. I also like your coffee inspired entry, too. You have a great amount of wonderful art and flowers today to share with us at T this Tuesday, dear Yvonne.
