December's coming for Diary Day


Diary Day and  the first week in December coming ever closer.
I used similar colours         for the stencils as were on the pre-printed page.
Then I created an arty tree using strips of washi tape.
The stamped[ Kate Crane]  angel was water coloured and fussy cut.

A last page for  Erika's theme Vintage and Modern  over at
Art Journal Journey
A modern tree and fairy to start the festive month.
 Erika, I have really enjoyed your theme this month
and
a huge thank you to Susi who has been linking my pages  for me this month.


Its my last piece for AEDM day 30

A gesso, random stamp  and stencil background as usual in this kraft paper journal.
November seems to have flown past, where have the days gone.


Thank you for calling in today, you are always welcome here.

I hope my modern angel will fit into

Cats Under Caffeine


Cats under caffeine.

A gesso base  with lots or random stamping, the cat   stamps are. I think  Katzelcraft images
 but  like the others I lost the makers names ages ago.

I have created a fun journal page today to share with  friends

where its T day
and we are always made very welcome with a drinks related post.
 The cats would like to say hello to Bleubeard and Squiggles they hope you have a great day

My  photos today have a number of weeks between them.
This one   in September when the garden centers  hadn't turned their thoughts to Christmas decorations and there were pots of Lavender on the tables.

Today these centers are full of Christmas decorations, I went to  one not far away from us today, the cafe was full, so we didn't join the queue for coffee. However I took a few photos  of the model railway display as  it looked quite magical








My last photo is of these snowy white owls, I walked past them at first, they were  near  the back of  display that seemed quite cluttered to me, but I did manage to get them in my view. The wicker work reindeer looked  good as well , but it was impossible  to get a photo of him.


Thank you for your get well wishes  on tea day last week,  I am feeling much better and as you will have read, I was out and about today [Monday].



Happy Tuesday to everyone calling in .  I hope you all
 have a good day.




AEDM.... day 27
Art Every Day

If you have called in for my Try it on Tuesdays post,
 please scroll down to my earlier post.
I'm afraid I scheduled  it for the wrong time. this week

Winter Wonderland at TioT's


The new theme at Try it on Tuesdays ,is....... Winter Wonderland.

Please pop over for all the information and see how  we all  interpreted this theme.

This has got to be one of my all time favourite stamps and it has made  regular appearances 
on my Christmas cards for a few years.  I do not know the maker as it has rubbed off the wooden block,  yes I still have many stamps on wood blocks.
I embossed the card blank and layered up the image.
Mirri card is not happy being photographed and dull weather doesn't help either.
The ribbon isn't as bright as this in real life,
  but I think you will get the  idea,  that its all  about the  winter scene
that I was trying to create for this theme.

Thank you for calling in to see me today , you are always very welcome here.

Under the sea


Do you believe  there are mermaids living under the oceans.
 One thing I have learn't this month   creating my pieces for AEDM is not to spend to much time thinking of how I want  a page to look like and be a bit flexible with the outcome.
 If it doesn't look finished off  to me. I am able to add a digital extra,
 like the ship and splashes  on this page.
The mermaid I tore from a JD tissue, stamped the words .
As for the base.....gesso, random stamping and some stencils.
Thank you for calling in, I hope you have a great day.




I will be joining.....
