I have had a christmass bazar today, in my shop.

And although the day started with rain, and cold weather,

it ended up, being a very good day, with many

wellknown faces to greet me, and to buy my goods and art.

Thankyou for a lovely day to all whom visited me here.

And sweet wishes for all friends out there,

hope you are having a wonderfull saturday.

A wonderfull packet from across the oceans

And this was inside, --a beautifull collage from JoAnnA Mosshill Studio.I knew at once when seing it ,that this was a very beautifull thing, and holdingit in my hands, it gives me a sense of tranquillity and times long gone by.

I love all the old materials ,so soft and worn, and I love how the green and red, gives ita wonderfull freshness, that makes it live.

It is ever so beautifull Joanna, I love it dear friend.

Wishing all of you a wonderfull evening, and to all my american friends, a very happy Thanksgiving.

Exchange of ATC

This beautifull envelope arrived in my postbox last week.

I had asked Viola if she would exhange ATS with me, and

I was very happy, that she said yes.

Is`nt it just sweet?

Inside was this little envelope, fitting perfectly the ATC ,I had chosen.

It is so very great.

Look at the round tag, with her name on,

so professional.

And then here the ATC, -it is so fanta´stic, beautifull in colors, and emage.

(the colors much more vibrant ,than shown here).

I can`t tell you how 2wonderfull an art piece this is.

And then Viola also added a beautifull card for me, The photo here also don`t give justice

to the colors in real. It is full of texture, and wonderfully stamped.

I love the text :"inside you can be anything"

It is realy a gift to know this so very sweet and talented lady from Germany.

I`m happy I met you here in blogland liebe Viola.

Vielen dank für dieser wunderschönes brief.

Hope all of you friends out there are having a lovely monday, and wish

everyone a happy evening.

Love and hugs, Dorthe

Christmas creations

Tiny new cristmas creations , first a little angel (10 cm.) made from a

velvet heart, and rusty wing, lined with gold glitter. She is meant to hang on the

christmas tree.

A sweet present ,when you just want to give a little something.

candles wrapped in old paper, beautifull picture,buttons, sweet wooden heart, and a little glitter.

The image is a freebie, that I found not long ago, but for now I don`t remember where,

but thanks.

Hope you are all having a wonderfull thursday, and wishing you a lovely week-end.

Love and hugs to everyone visiting me here.

Decorating a christmas tree

Every year , for the last maybe 6 years ,I ( with other artists on this Island) am invited to

decorate a christmas tree ,in the most faschionable hotel here on Bornholm, Called :

Radisson SAS Fredensborg. Today was the date to do that, -and while on my way, I discovered this absolutely beautifull rose. Don`t know the name , but it was so wonderfull against this pale rosa wall.

This ovals (showed some of them before) -standing :Merry christmas- together with

white bows made from crepe paper, and some silver angels, was the theme ,for my tree.

It is a very beautifull tree -very tall and big, and as you see, it is very simple decorated

( as we most often do ie here in DK.)

The pictures don`t do it justice , because of very much light, but I guess you gets an idea.


Hope you are all doing well, and wishing everyone a lovely
day, and evening.

BUSY ,BUSY , ---but have to play a bit in between.,---So today wheil setting my shop up to christmas, I just had to do this tutsi, it is quite simple, made of a new reproduction of the

christmas evangeliun written in frensch.-Just folded it, used a very beautifull image from

Artist class - a dow in her nest, and some glitter.

It snowed a bit on her

Artist Class

Rember I told you how bussy I am just now? Well I also joined Artist Class, and every evening seeing all the wonderfull projects,makes me want to do some of the tutorials.So when this little :"Matchbook" tutorial showed up yesterday, I knew I had to do it. Here is the place it came from: Ruthann ,- it is a sweet little notepad.

This is the original from Ruthann

I kind of wanted to make it a little more romantic, so here is mine .

I used an image from one of the other tutorials from Beth Leintz , isn`t she beautifull?

Inside some old calender pages ,cut to size and a beautifull stamp.

And a lightblue piece of embroidered material, on the back.

I had lots of fun doing this, after working all the day on 4 : nisser,-

That is a danish thing, kind of pixy,-I will show you next time blogging.

I wish you a wonderfull day, and evening.

And want to thank everyone of you commenting on my blog, and all the followers.

You all makes this blogging adventure even more wonderfull.

Thank`s dear friends.
