SOARTFUL CHALLENGE

Well here is my entry in SoArtful Challenge. Finally I am getting back in groove again. I love the different challenges, mainly because the make me do something. I just seem to be coasting in nuetral lately.  The theme this time was Time for Tea.  Here is a link to them http://jeanette-soartfulchallenges.blogspot.com/2012/03/mid-challenge-reminder-post.html

I made a little tag, the teapot is from the GraphicsFairy http://graphicsfairy.blogspot.com/2011/04/vintage-clip-art-images-adorable-pastel.html

The tea party pic was also from the Graphics Fairy. It is an illustration from Alice in Wonderland. The five oclock tea words are from the top of the tea party pic.

I hope you all have a great week and may God bless you.

SOARFUL CHALLENGE AND BACK AMONGST THE LIVING

I know I am just under the wire on this challenge.  I have had the images printed and blocked out in my mind since Monday.  BBBBBut...... I have been under the weather with a darn virus (I guess, but when you don't have health insurance you don't run to the doctor).  I feel better today than yesterday, so maybe I am over the worst. 
I found a new blog challenge called Soarful Challenge.  http://jeanette-soartfulchallenges.blogspot.com/2011/07/early-architecture.html
Now for the challenge:  here is the image we had to work with.

The image originally came from Karen at the Graphics Fairy.  If you have never prowled thru her blog I have a button on the right side near the bottom. I added an image from the BBC~UK~DRWHO called weeping angel. I think she is just covering her eyes.  The background image is from Gail Schmidt at Shabby Cottage Studios (her old blog) which has some great images for free.  She has moved to a new blog and site, so you should NOT wait to check out her old one because it could go away any time. Here is a link to her old site ~   http://shabbycottagestudio.blogspot.com/     There are some great freebies there and her collage sheets are well worth buying. Anyway, here is my entry to the challenge.  I call it "Come out, come out! where ever you are".

I have to admit all those arches and such look like great hiding places.  This is my first time with Soarful challenge and I will be back.  This was fun, I just wish I had felt better.
God Bless all of you.
