Smile On Saturday-Flat Lay
ODC-Adventure
These are just a few of the fridge magnets I've collected over the years. Stu and I have travelled to some very cool and interesting places. These are but a few of them.
The UFO Museum in Roswell, NM is quite interesting. They have great stories, photos and statues of Aliens. There is one section dedicated to "The Alien Autopsy." I'm sure you remember that one It is well worth visiting this place.
I lived in Albuquerque, NM for 15 years and it was quite interesting living in a city of 1/2 million. The Sandia Mountains, which are over 10,000 feet high are at the end of the Rocky Mountain Range sits to the east of the city and are worth a cable car trip to the top. You can see a very long way from up there. They have a great ski slope, a hiking trail and a good restaurant in case you're hungry!
Chaco Canyon is a fascinating place with such a rich cultural history. They have a small Observatory there and we got to see a star going "Supernova" through one of their telescopes. It was something I shall never forget.
We travelled through Oklahoma when we moved to New York State. I have never experienced winds as I did there. They were so strong I couldn't get out of the Jeep to pump gas, I would have been knocked down and rolled along the pavement.
We hiked the John Muir Trail In California and got to see the giant Redwood trees. They had been in a fire and you could see the burn marks 1/2 way up their huge trunks. The trees survived because of their size and height. It was incredible, to say the least.
When Stu lived in Arizona he spent time with his friend Ed in the Sonoran Desert. He said it's a sacred place and was in awe of the huge Saguaro Cactus that inhabit the region.
Happy Halloween to all my friends! —Love, the Grim Reaper
This masked Blythe doll is Plaid Parade, posing for the theme “Reaper” in the Blythe a Day group on Flickr. She made her mask and scythe quickly and easily from paper, cardboard, foil, and a stick—isn’t she crafty?! She’s wearing Milky Way Sugar’s stock dress and Daunting Drusilla’s tights.
One where I can hear the trees rustling in the wind, raindrops on the windows, pages of a book being turned, coffee being brewed, and the heartbeats of the ones I love.

A quick "hello" to all my Flickr friends... very busy presently with volunteering, crafting, baking, inviting friends... but no time for photography!
Hoping each of you is doing fine and preparing Christmas with a cheerful spirit...
My word for 2025 was "create". So far I've been continuing my adventures with watercolor as well as learning to do "doodle art" and lately I've been trying my hand at "hand lettering". They are all works in progress and each one has a different feel, but I've really enjoyed trying new things and creating art! This flat lay has samples of each style as well as the tools I use to create them.
Personal Challenge: Photography + Watercolor

23/31: Having done grey and pink, I thought I'd continue with the 'shades of series'. The magazine is called Picture Show and is dated 9th November 1929. I bought it ages ago with a view to frame it but never got round to it. It could well appear again...some of the inside pages maybe.

My most used hoop again with all the other purple things I forgot to put in the first one. I didn't realise I had so much purple!
This hoop flatlay series started with a challenge from Deanne Love on Instagram:
'Grab your fav hoop, put on some cool tunes, then GO! Collect as many things in your house that match your hoop 😊 Make some circle art, take a flatlay pic and share it
It has really taken off on Instagram myfavhoop with many people (including me) doing it with more than one hoop. There are now more than 500 photos created for Deanne's challenge.
A little bit of fun during lockdown.
Greet each new day with a smile!

This Blythe doll is Simply Guava, wearing Country Summer’s stock dress. The mermaid is a Lalaloopsy doll. For the “Travel” Blythe a Day group on Flickr.
I bought a poinsettia just before Christmas and it's been shedding its leaves since I got it. Can't waste them so they had to appear in a photo. Now, I know it's not the third today but I'd added the printers block as there were three leaves and three hearts...and I just wanted to use it.

My contribution to Photo Sunday (Fotosöndag) on the theme photo.
It’s also my contribution to Official Dogwood on the theme selective color.
O, thou art fairer than the evening air clad in the beauty of a thousand stars.
—Christopher Marlowe
This Blythe doll is Sea Sailor See. It took some doing to come up with a picture for the theme “Mork and Mindy”, but I finally chose a doll with similar hair (short, brown) to Mork’s and dressed her in a vague approximation of the spacesuit he sometimes wore. The background is a poster.
My contribution to Photo Sundays theme "Flat Lay" I just love to relax with needlework after a days work.

These Blythe dolls are my Candy Carnival twins, wearing their stock dresses. As you can see, one came out of the box with shorter bangs than the other one did. The background is a jigsaw puzzle. It was rather difficult, but I’m glad I stuck with it and finished it, because it looks great!

Thank you in advance for your views, comments, and faves. They are much appreciated!
As I wandered through the village one day, my attention was drawn to the sight of a Harley Davidson motorcycle stationed proudly in front of the town hall. What made this bike stand out was its captivating paint job—a rich, deep burgundy bordering on black, accentuated by a meandering brilliant orange pinstripe. Enthralled by this striking display, I embarked on a personal project in my workshop: creating a fountain pen that captured the essence of this unique design.
Beginning the endeavour in early December, I poured my creative energy into shaping what would become known as "The Harley Pen," a homage to the motorcycle that sparked the inspiration. Having completed the project this past week, there was still one final step. Similar to pairing a fine meal with the perfect wine, I sought out the ideal ink to complement my creation. With confidence in their selection, I turned to The Mailroom in Fort Langley. They always seem to have just what I need.
The Mailroom delivered once again. Today, "The Harley Pen" proudly bears the vibrant hue of Sunrise Orange ink, a testament to the beautiful pinstripe on that Harley. Now with ink flowing smoothly, this pen is poised to leave its mark on the world.

More fun and games with paper on the light pad - this time with blue crepe paper, a glass Christmas decoration and the stopper from a fancy glass bottle!
