Keeping this post short so I can work on Thanksgiving preparations the next few days.
My journal page is a combination of collage and paint and meant for T Stands For Tuesday, Art Journal Journey (collage-with a twist), and the Simon Monday Challenge (Trio-Tastic). My trio - three shades of yellow paint for the background: Banana Yellow, Dark Yellow, and Yellow Ochre. I glued pieces of text and music washi tape to the page before sponging on the paints.
Wishing those of you who will be celebrating - a very happy and blessed Thanksgiving. My special prayer of gratitude is for the friends and family near and far including those of you I have never met in person. Thank God for cyberspace!
" Gratitude can transform common days to thanksgivings, turn routine jobs into joy, and change ordinary opportunities into blessings." William Arthur Ward
This is a simply incredible mug of kindness, right down to the realistic collage. You should also enter it in MM&M, since the mug has stripes.
ReplyDeleteI am so grateful that you took time to share these pieces with us for T this Tuesday. I hope you have a joyous, safe, and FULfilling Thanksgiving.
What a lovely cup :) very cheering. I am also grateful for the community and fellowship I've found online with people who are so welcoming even though we've never met. What a blessing! Happy T Tuesday

ReplyDeletep.s. thanks for thinking of putting the pumpkin roll recipe on your blog, it is very kind of you! I bake many American recipes and have measuring cups etc although I know what you mean - sometimes for me the ingredients don't translate very well :-).
Your art entry for the challenges is so nice. It is a busy time of year for many. I'm wishing you and your family a Happy Thanksgiving.
