Friends, tea and visits.

T stands for Tuesdays at.......

Bleubeard and Elizabeths

We are always made very welcome with a drinks related post.
The cuppa was as usual close by on my desk.
I used a large stencil again, spraying it with water colours. After adding the  stamped three friends, I  used a heart stencil to add some texture. I rubbed this area over with gilding wax.
A random squiggle with a black pen around the edges and it was time to stop.

This week I have also made a tag

for Valeries theme at

Tag Tuesday.






Simple layers with some random stamping.
It looks a bit like a coffee pot , but I think you know it would be filed with tea for me.

A selection of photo's from another of our trips over the Bank Holiday weekend
We visited Claydon House.
I have to admit I didn't like the interior [no photo allowed]
but the church was beautiful

Two photo of how the house looks from the outside now.
top photo  built about 1757














The house remains  in the Verney family  who live in the red brick wing
built 1827.

Florence Nightingale
stayed regularly here and had her own bedroom.
This is her carriage it was kept in the Mews.

The Fire Engine was also on show, I don't think it would be much use these days.

There were a variety of Artisan  shops in the Mew area.
I liked these wall plaques

As all good visits must come to an end, ours ended in the tea shop  for Cheese on Toast.

Tea day friends  I hope you don't get a shock,
 no tea , just water for me..

I will be linking my journal page to
Art Journal Journey
for Halle's theme......
Words to Live by.



Thank you for stopping by,
 I hope you are all having a lovely day.
