Another one with a quote . . . . .

You can blame Kim Klassen for starting me off on this . . .I downloaded her free brush set and it took off from there.
This quote is one I found myself and I thought it was lovely . . . .especially when you look at it as I do through the window of  trust in God's overwhelming love for us . . .
The photo was taken when I went for a walk near the beach on a really windy day . . .it really blew the cobwebs away.

Hope you like this  . . .

"Life's voyage"

Now that Christmas is over I'm looking forward to everything settling back to normal  . . .we don't do anything  special for New Years eve so this weekend should be nice and peaceful . . . just the way I like it.

I hope you all have a wonderful 2012, Teresa xx :-)

Christmas Day . . . . . .

Have a wonderful day everyone . . .

I hope your day is filled with peace and joy . . . .
Love Teresa xx :-)

Love endures . . . .the Christmas message . . .

or what it means to me  . . . .

I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas full of peace and joy.
Sent with love and my very best wishes, Teresa xx :-)

Plainly pink . . . . .

I was given a gift of a little potted cyclamen which was so sweet and of course I took a lot of  photos. As I was working with the images I had taken I decided to make this one  a "pinky" colour which is quite a departure from the things I normally do.

This new set of pics dovetailed very happily with the fact that Kim Klassen has been so generous this Christmas and is freely giving a new texture every day for the "twelve days of |Christmas so it was an ideal opportunity  to use one of those on it. . . . .I love her magic textures and this one is called "moremagicscratched" and as she has said, for those of you who may not know, the way to use the magic textures is in screen mode at 100%.

I have called this one "pink inspiration"

It's decidedly soggy here at the moment . . .hoping it clears up soon or I'm going to get rather damp walking to my friends house later . . .
Keep smiling :-)) Love Teresa xx

Pre Christmas lull . . . .

We don't really do much for Christmas but even so things really seem to speed up in the week or two before .

But . . . . . I've sent all the cards . . . . . been to the Christmas Fayre in the village . . . .and seen Santa arrive so I guess things are on track :-)

I'm going to remind myself of warm summer days today with this photo of an agapanthus. I only have one plant in the garden but it's so reliable and I love the flowers . . . .

"Early Summer Sunshine"

Hope your Sunday is calm and peaceful . . . .
Love Teresa xx :-)

Underwater . . . .

I was down at the harbour the other day and it was so calm. I loved the reflections of the boats in the water and snapped away quite happily.

So here is "Underwater"

Have a good weekend everyone . . . .and to all those in the UK . . .stay warm ..
Love Teresa xx :-)

Whispers of Summer . . . .

These dried grasses have been sitting on my kitchen window sill for months now and they always look the smae . . .so delicate and beautiful . . . they just go on and on and on.

I took some really close, close up shots and this is one of the results . . . .

We've got another mild day today and we really have had a lovely spell of calm sunny weather . . . .but the clouds are beginning to build and tomorrow and the next day is forecast as rainy . . . so I made sure I got out and about with my camera first thing this morning . . . .got to have something to work on :-)

Happy Monday, Teresa xx :-)

Blue Autumn . . . .

The post title gets it's name from the blue leaf in this image which was the first one I created.

These are vine leaves beginning to fade and fall from the vines . . .but I decided to do something different with them . . .another collage but a different treatment this time.

"Blue Autumn"

It's short and sweet from me today . . .have a lovely weekend everyone.

Love Teresa xx :-)
