A messenger of love

The messenger of love, I call this angel
She brings help and wonders from above--tells us to join in hands and hearts.
She is made in cotton material, and decorated with old papers
in handwriting, and words of wisdom.
I used different stamps on her trousers.
Click on the pictures to see the details.

Lots of birds gathering on my field, on the opposite side
of the street.
If you click the picture, you can see how many they are,
and my welcome angel from the back.



Tomorrow I am going to set up my little exhibition in the
hospital in Rønne. I will try to take some pictures.
Till then, I wish you all a lovely day, and evening.

Love and hugs, Dorthe

Angels and a beautifull walk

Little angel waiting for christmas to come, not quite finished, as she have to
add a few details to her face, but looking quite happy to be here.
And here a sister, not quite finished too,
Today my husbond, Solvejg and I, took a walk here on this side of the island,
near the coast .
We walked a bit highter than the coastline,so we had the most
beautifull wiew to the Baltic Sea.


Look at this old trees, almost fully covered with Ivy,
I realy had to control myselves,not to take big bunches home with me, for
wreaths.Have to return to pick some another day.

And this is the sunset ,seen from my window ,so
very beautifull, and so autumn-like.

So hope you all had, -and have a lovely sunday
and sending wisches for a good monday.
xoxo, Dorthe

MMM- Make something round

This week at MMM my dear blogging friend Anni ( one of the few in Denmark) made the
Art piece and challenge . (make something round), and did a very beautifull challenge piece.
Thake a look at her blog.





I startet with a pink paper cupcake-form with white dots, and from there added small pieces of this and that. I used the lovely item from Arteologi some stamps, and finished with a crepe rushe ? -is it spelled so ? It is app. 15x15 cm. And I think I`m getting a little too much pink here,
but kind of like it.
It is called :"Sisters in love and time"
I had a great time in Copenhagen with my "kids", and have to start with my dolls
again, -so I will be bussy.
Hope all of you had a great week-end, and wishes you a lovely week.
Hugs and love
Dorthe

Remember your inner child----

This doll, -also made for the exhibition, represents, one of the ,for me ,very importent
things in life : hold on to your inner child,-don`t forget to play, experience,dream,and create.
Don`t let your inner child leave,when growing up.But keep her close, and experience with
her, lots of exiting things.
To express the inner child, I used the wonderfull image of the little child,
which I found on The Feathered Nest,- Dawn`s beautifull blog.
I also want to show you a new ATC , I just recieved in the mail, from Julia .
We met on MMM and exchanged ATC´S, mine is now on it`s way to her.
I love this one, thanks Julia.


It`s friday evening, -one week gone again, -tomorrow my dear friend Solvejg is
here , for working together, and enjoing each others compagny, lovely.
Wishing all of you a happy saturday, too.
Hugs to all dear friends.
