Friday Catch up - 20th June 2025


Inktense blocks and pencils on fabric.
I'm afraid I don't have anything for the Doodlewash prompts this week, I've actually been gardening [a little] and sewing for the hare among other things.


Gelli Print Book

I used metallic paints on the left page. The birds I cut on the MKN cutting machine.
The pears etc is a drawing I collaged onto a gelli print page.

I used a page from a magazine to get the print on the right hand side [blue/pink]

Some more magazine transfers
Left - the top leaf with text was a rough cut out
Right - This is not a gelli print, it's painted and the gold circles are from such things as chocolates etc. All the little 'tree' texts were found in a magazine.

Another view of the row of houses shown last time at Kendal
Burton-in-Lonsdale - A window seat in the bedroom of the cottage I was staying in.
In the same cottage there was a window on the stairs looking down into the dining area of the kitchen.
Seats among the other antiques and salvage at Ingleton
A lot of bluebells grow in my garden

Have a good week, see you in three.

Seats at an antiques and salvage yard, Ingleton
At the same place were this collection of chimney pots. This was not for any particular photo challenge but just because I liked them.
This clump of trees was seen on the beach at Villajoyosa, Spain
A type of bluebell, perhaps they should be called pinkbells.
In my garden last month.

That's all folks, enjoy your week!

Altea [April 2025]



I think this view looks better in real life, it was from one of the hotel windows

The hand of Fatima door knocker -There is a ring on her marriage finger. The occupants of the house were protected against evil.



 Just along the coast from Altea is Denia






Enjoy your week!
