Let it Snow

Hello everyone I hope you are having a good day. For those who asked how the film, The Hobbit, went for us--it didn't. Our cinema is only a small one and they had been sent the super duper 3D version of the film and their equipment didn't show the film properly so the ticket lady advised us not to bother paying our money for the tickets. Oh well we will wait for the DVD. Not sure I could have sat still for 3 hours anyway.

At Show Us Your Twinchies the subject is Let It Snow. Hopefully it won't snow but it always looks nice on Christmas Cards.


I used a small part of an old Christmas card for the backing and a lovely little snow man I bought in a patchwork shop when we were on holiday. To this I add the text and some 'diamonds'

Love Chrissie xx

    Well by all accounts you didn't miss much Chrissie, my nephew and BIL went to see it on Friday and were really disappointed in it!!

    Glad you still managed to make the best of it.

    Great twinchie by the way.

    Oh my Chrissie, so much lovely work on such a tiny piece! Fab snowman! Such a shame you couldn't see the Hobbit, but no doubt you will get to see it one day. Take care, Ira xox

    Chrissie, that card just looks like 'fun'! What a clever idea, and so pretty, too.

    I do wish it would snow a bit, and everyone safe on the roads, of course. We could use a little winter wonderland.

    May you have a Merry Christmas full of love, peace, joy, and good health.

    Hugs,
    Marianne

    How clever to re-use an old Christmas card... your twinchie looks fab - love the little snowman!
    Oh, and I'd say you're spot on about the word "bleak"!

Tag and Journal page design

Hi All. Thank you for visiting today and I hope you like what you see here. A fine bright day but colder today so I may fit in a walk later though I had some curtains to make before I do anything else. At Tag Tuesday this week the theme is Diva. I don't always remember to show my tags for there as you need to be a member and and do your own posts on Tag Tuesday's blog. I chose Elizabeth Taylor as my Diva she was so beautiful in films but definitely a Diva in her private life. Art Journal Journey are still drawing me in with the artists inspired theme so here is yet another page for the challenge there.  This was inspired by Damien Hirst though years ago I didn't feel inspired by his work at all when I saw some of it for real at the Liverpool Tate Gallery. We had gone there to see the wonderful Rodin sculpture 'The Kiss' which graced the entrance to the Gallery. Then we strayed into the next part and a whole wall was covered in dots. It didn't look like art to
