Change

The first part of the week was glorious, we sat out, wandered up the valley with the dog

Caught up with some friends....And then it got a tad cooler! Last night the Mistral started to blow & I got very little sleep - it even lashed it down with rain at 2am.

I did manage to stay up to date with my journal challenges & im here to share....
Journal 52: monochrome
 
A prepped page in shades of sage/ yellowish green. I added some scraps from a colouring book page and a drinks mat (which adds a little pinky lilac)

Art prompts galore time/vintage

An advert for old motorcycles, an old fashioned advert for a children's book that I've added to a black label that has a little doodling on it done with a white pen.

Colour me positive: Dream big
Another prepped page with stamping, ticket washi tape, a temple dancer from a travel magazine and a lady in a strange hat that I seem to think was from a packet of savoury biscuits! I love to wear hats & the bigger the better!

DLP where we are still out on a limb. This week we had to use a PAC that someone else had drawn on. As I had no such thing with me I used a piece of happy mail gelli print cut to ATC size, added washi, an owl from stash, doodles & stencilling, coloured the 2 wacky owls in the top corner & calling it done. This improvising lark is not easy when you don't have your full craft room available lol!

Every inchie Monday : bulldozer

Well of course...that was not going to be easy to fit on an inch now was it, so let's take a step sideways & see what a rummage in the scraps could turn up....a piece that I've cut from the horoscope page in the Sunday Times!  A bull dozing!!!

Hopefully this one will have given you a giggle. See you all again soon with more tales from the mountains.....
