Journal Page and Inchie

Hello Everyone. Thank you for dropping by on this very windy day here on the UK coast. I am off to the dentist for my next to last appointment so fingers crossed that will be it for six months.

At Art Journal Journey the autumn colours theme is going so well with beautiful pages to see, if you click on a button they are all together and well worth a visit.

When we visited my daughter she had got a few wallpaper samples and this is one she didn't like so I brought the piece home to use for something. Well here is the something and I used a stencil for the cornucopia and paper flower and real leaf.

Every Inchie Monday has Nymph as their subject of the week

Back to my daughter again for inspiration as she used to go fishing and made fishing flies, Some of them were little works of art and this one is a Nymph Fly. The hooks always made me cringe but she did catch some nice fish that we could cook.

That's it for now though it looks like being another crafting day when I get back from seeing the dentist. I have been so often recently we are almost related!

Have  a lovely day

Chrissie xx

    Enjoy the dentist - I only have one more visit for a check up in December. Lovely journal page, I have that cornucopia stencil, too, in a stencil book. Thanks for joining us again at AJJ, hugs, Valerie
    By the way, nobody likes that new railing along the Rhine, the old one was so much nicer.

    Daughters are some of the best sources of inspiration. I like the first piece, but my absolute favorite is the inchie, with it's bright colors and significance. Blessings, my friend!

    Sorry about the dentist, let's hope this will be it for a while. Love the cornucopia, looks very autumny. That inchie is so cool. Nice that your daughter inspired you this week.

    Stunning fall page, and I love the idea of using a fishing lure for the nymph. Never even thought of that one...clever!

    A brilliant "something" making use of that textured wallpaper - your cornucopia looks gorgeous against it. Very clever work on the Nymph inchie.

    Great idea to use the wallpaper, and the fishing lure reminds me of my son, who also makes his own .

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
