Around here...

Fishies...

I want to call these flame trees but I'm sure they have a proper name - anyone? They're gorgeous and such a bright red.

Small collage on wood...

Looking up from our garden last night...

More rain coming - when you can see it on the horizon you know it's time to run home (except Molly casually saunters along - she's too cool to run...)

Playing

I bought a job lot of old postcards on ebay and I've been having fun playing around with them -

I'm going to have them printed as postcards and sell them in mixed packs - I haven't made anything just to sell for a long time and I miss it!

A secret collage and my favourite Christmas ad..

I can't watch it without sobbing - but in a good way! (The 'nothing like Australia' ad has a similar effect!)

Triangular

Triangles! Love 'em!

Stars and leaves

We had quite an eventful weekend - what with this - it's not every day we drive out of our road to be greeted by armed police...

Our little village is back to it's peaceful self now!

I'm doing a lot of little collages at the moment, but I'm having real trouble when it comes to scanning them - my scanner isn't very advanced and it doesn't seem to like the colours of the paper I'm using - any advice happily received!

Better go and pick my little treasures up from school now...

In my sketchbook

Summer Rain

IF: Journey

This collage is made of bits and pieces I've accumulated on my journeys - a Spanish newspaper, a Norwegian stamp - some security envelopes and of course, a Boden catalogue!

Cultivate

This collage was inspired by a collection of eggcups on my kitchen windowsill that have little succulents growing in them

Happy weekend everyone!

Starburst

Hourglass

Half-term mayhem

Sunshine! And just in time - I have the kind of children who need three hours of solid exercise a day to keep them (and me ) sane..

That wore them out enough to give me a chance to do this - I don't know what it is but I love the bright colours!
