Dots and FLowers

I had to get in a couple more flower creations before May is over!

My first page is inspired by the **Art*Journal*Journey* and THESE nails.

Card going to my sweet aunt who sent me a great card and a little treat this week - she is a CTMH demonstrator and very creative!

The BAJ page focuses on praising God with shouts of joy, sweet words, and song,
Doodled the BAJ dots and stenciled the card circle.  The flowers are the To A Wild Rose from SU! painted with Arteza Gouache colors. Had to add in some fun ladies to jazz things up a bit.

New toys to play with on my second creations.  These were done for the **ART*JOURNAL*JOURNEY* challenge and the Teapot Tuesday challenge with was red, white, and blue but not patriotic.
Page and card made with new Rubbernecker Wildflowers in the wind and Dina K greeting from IO.

Love the sentiment from my friend Dina K.  It is at IO.  Such a true statement, but seems we humans can't resist looking back and forth too much. Here is a picture of just the card.

Praying for the U.S. - please join me!  We need prayer desperately.

    Beautiful thoughts, beautiful BAJ pages and that Rumi saying touched me so ... The Bible quote is lovely too. Your flowers are just magical as is the rest of your art.

    Hope you are well.

    Love,
    Monica

    Your card and your journal page are gorgeous, Nancy. I love the dolls on your card and the great colors combination on the page. Thank you so much for joining again my challenge at AJJ. Hugs, my friend.
    My prayers are with US and Latin America. Hope that this pandemic will end soon.

    These are a great couple of journal pages to wrap up the month with Nancy. The flowers are gorgeous and so are sentiments. Hope we get to see you next month too. Pretty soon that challenge will go live. Happy new month and thanks for joining us at AJJ. Hugs-Erika

    I'm always surprised by the beauty of Rubbernecker flowers. These are gorgeous and you've used them well. Love the card and the quote. Beautiful work. Pray without ceasing... always makes me think of Keith Green's 'Make My Life a Prayer to you.' We carry his light and his presence everywhere we go and although we can't go very far at the moment, we can 'go' online!
    My Intercessor group still meet weekly via WhatsApp and it works well. I tend to forget to pray for our leaders, yet it's a command and something I do when I remember. My heart goes out to country leaders at this time. It must be SO HARD to make decisions for the right reasons but as a friend of mine used to say, 'People must always come first!'
    We're praying for the unrest you're experiencing over there, that people will realise violence achieves nothing. But oh how I understand their outrage. God bless you.

Unopened Mail And My Grocery List

We arrived back from our Las Vegas trip last night so the only thing on my Kitchen Counter is unopened mail and my grocery list.  I have looked up the recipes for most the great food we ate (or wish we ate) in Las Vegas including Bacon Waffles and Chicken and Waffles - so my counter top should look awesome tomorrow (or as soon as I get a waffle maker).  We had lots of fun in Las Vegas but not as much as Crystal and Joey.  If we were still 21 we would have had a blast!  No luck with gambling - but I only gained 1 pound which is a miracle!

Christmas Mice

Hello Crafty Friends, Today, I am playing in some fun challenges with this cute card: The current House-Mouse &Friends Monday Challenge HMFMC #461 is Anything Goes with an optional theme of Pastels. I have some pastel paper in my layers. This card was made with ornaments from a SU! set, a cut up sentiment from RedLead Paperworks, and three mice I cut out of the Spellbinders Sew Sweet stamp set. The background was inspired by Jeanne Streiff's MIX challenge on Splitcoaststampers.com last Friday where she asked us to make a background using a die cut as a stencil.

T is For 10 Years of T-Day, Too much food, and The Art (Always the Art)

Hello Friends. Most of today's post is about celebrating 10 years of Elizabeth hosting T-day parties on her blog .  If you have visited me before, you know that I regularily participate in T-day where we all post something about a drink of any type (the drink can be anything including water and the post can be a real drink, words, movies, art, etc.) on Tuesday (or Monday lol) and link it to Elizabeth's T-day blog post for the week.   This year Elizabeth is asking us to post several things in celebration of the big anniversary.   #1.   Post a picture of something that makes the number 10. I used 10 art supplies that were near me.  I am starting to make more Christmas cards so these were right at hand.  #2.   Post our regular T-day picture/post.  My drink picture today is a lunch we had in Tybee Island last week during our Georgia trip.  We ate at Pier 16 .  Great food and service. It was our favorite meal during the trip. ...
