T stands for Trying To Get Some Exercise!

Hi everyone, as part of my post today I have a journal page I have meant to post for the last few days!

It is for Valerie's Art Journal Journey 'Anything Goes' theme but it also qualifies for 

Creative Artistes #91st Challenge - 'Anything Mixed Media Goes'

I covered my page with gesso before sprinkling with Paper Artsy Infusion powders, I added some stencilling with embossing ink and added white embossing powder. The flowers were stamped and coloured with Neocolour11 crayons and the main image was taken from some designer paper. I finished by spattering with white acrylic paint.

We have both put a few pounds on over the Winter so last week you may remember we went to Lyme Park and had a walk around the lake.

We decided to warm up a bit in the palm house

These two ladies dressed in red against the red Camellia made me smile and they allowed me to take a photograph - unfortunately I forgot to ask permission to put their photo on my blog so I retouched their faces

This plant looked dead as we approached it but there are lots of green shoots appearing.

We managed a short walk at Styal Mill on our way shopping on Saturday

I'm looking forward to seeing this border grow

I am really pleased that my phone camera can take these close ups

There are daffodils at different stages as well as snowdrops that are still blooming.

My T Stands For Tuesday drink is coffee - flat white - that we both had at Booths the other week before we started our shopping - I had mine with a coffee while hubby opted for a slice of Victoria sponge cake.

I'm sure you would get a warm welcome from Bleubeard and Elizabeth and the rest of the T party gang if you joined them with your drink related post at The Altered Book Lover.

We also went to Dunham Massey for a walk but I think my T space is about used up for today! 

Thanks for looking, Chris

ps We still need lots more walks!!!
