favourite things

 

Favourite Things.......

 was the theme over at Art Journal Journey this month,

 chosen by Erika.

Here we are at the end of the month and  I have at last  a journal page to add.

The starting point was this page with stamping and stencils, I added the stamp with the watering can and flowers and coloured them with water colour paints.

My  crafting time has taken a back seat for many weeks/months.

 Now I  will be trying to do what my husband would have wanted me to .....

 get out the paint, stamps, stencils 

and get messy again..

Sadly he lost his struggle with cancer and other complications in mid December,

 we miss him so much but are content that he is at rest.

Thank you for calling in, I hope to get back to visiting with you all soon.

One day at a time

Take care and stay safe.

Winter Blues at TioT's

 

There is   a new challenge theme starting today over at.....

 Try it on Tuesdays.....

Winter Blues.

Please pop over for all the details and information.

This was  how the page I used for the background  began in my digital journal.

 A winter snowy scene, looking  like the  small wood close to my home will look  now. if I were to go for a walk there.

We have had snow , it looks so white and crisp with the first glace and then the colours   of the   sky show through the branches of the trees and you can see the winter  blue shades.

Its been a while since my last post, thank you for calling in  today,

Stay safe and well.

The Meaning of.. time .... for AJJ

A new month and a new theme over at Art Journal Journey begins today.

Tracey is our Guest Hostess for December ,

 the theme she has chosen is----

The Meaning of....

Please pop over to the AJJ blog for all the information and details.

We are looking forward to seeing how you all interpret this theme 

Once again I have chosen to create a digital journal page showing the peace

 and tranquillity of a winters day.

 Time has stood still for a magical moment.

 I'm sure we all have special memories of such times,

 We loved walking in the local wood  with the dog on a frosty morning and if  we were lucky  

 the deer could be seen  among the trees. 

My family  takes each day as it dawns and make it as special as we can. 

  We cannot turn back the clock , my husband is   ill and currently  in hospital.

Walking in the woodland is not possible these days,

 but time has given us precious memories that  we will never forget.

Take care everyone and stay safe.

Remembrance Day

 

Remembrance Day

A day to remember all the brave men and women from all the countries of our world, who gave and still give their lives for the freedom and safety of others.

In this year of 2020 I would also like to thank the   folk  who look after our health and wellbeing,

 who are fighting  the silent pandemic  that has taken the lives of so many across the world.. 

A digital page  using  my page from2018    was my starting place, 

my crafting time is still very limited.

Stay safe and keep well .
