Three Fishers..

 
It's strange how suddenly a memory comes into your mind. I thought
about my Music teacher at the High School and of some of the songs
she taught us. One was the Three Fishers and this is the chorus.
I was singing it for days so I thought I must make a picture
and get it out of my system!
 
And here's little Lucy with Martin. She loves her dad!
Isn't it wonderful to see a little recued dog so relaxed. It's so
different from when she first came to them. Frightened and nervous,
she didn't know how to play!
Now she hides her leather bones and can't remember where she hid them
so they all have to play Hunt the Bone with her! LOL!

Three Muses Challenge...Script..

 
The challenge this week is to use Script in our work.
This is not something new I've tried as I often include some writings
somewhere or other.
So just a simple vintage styled piece today.
The woman is another old photograph I found and have used many times.
Thank you so much for your visit and any comments you make always delight me.
 
Love and Hugs

My Pets...


How lovely to find a 100 year old photo of a child smiling! Found on Google so I extracted the child and put her in a fantasy background, seated her on a silk cushion, added her turban and pets and there you are. I was so pleased how this turned out.

Have a lovely day,

Pansies..

 
Pansies are for Loving Thoughts so they say.....
 
So today I'm sending loving thoughts to my little sister Jackie who has been
taken to hospital. They've given her 3 pints of blood so something is going on.
She's due for an endoscopy tomorrow so then we may know more.
Please keep her in your prayers.....Thank you  xx

Not My Day...


 
Here are a couple of works I did for an Altered Art challenge for Digitalmania on Flickr.
Sometimes their challenges are demanding and totally out of my comfort zone
but this is the sort of thing I love doing.
Hope you like them.

Well I've been to Chapel this morning and taken Algie. He just knows when it's time for the little service; a hymn, a reading and a few prayers. There's no wriggling in my arms, just quiet and he listens. How amazing is that!
 
When we got home I expected my groceries to have been delivered.
'No' said Freddie. 'They're not coming!'
So on the phone I get to see what's up. My credit card has been compromised and they wouldn't accept it. So next I ring the credit card company. Yes, this is the third time this year I have had to have a new credit card, with all the rigmarole of changing details on various sites I shop with.
The new card won't arrive until Monday and my cupboard is bare!
 
Still I have bigger worries......my dear son-in-law John is abed under doctor's orders.
Awaiting results of a scan to his back. He's been pushing and pushing himself for months and looks ill with so much pain.
My son moved something in the garden which 'turned round and bit him' and nearly took his arm off.
My Grandson fell off a stepladder which collapsed under him and he was lucky he 'only' got deep scratches and gouges on his leg.
So I am thankful today for small mercies........

3 M...Circles and Squares..


I have made a pattern this week for the Three Muses challenge of circles and squares from my own work, The circle of flowers I've had for years comes from an old kit by Lauren Bavin called Emily's Garden. I've just checked and it's still available at DSP.
 
Thank you for looking and have a great day!
Love and Hugs
