Two morer TAGS - and a HEARTFELD THANKYOU

First of all, I want to ,from my heart thankyou all of you that postet here,wishing me a wonderfull trip ,to stay with my grandchildren, -It made me so very happy, and I endeed had a beautifull, and happy week-end . I so love those kids, and they makes me feel loved ,too.

********************************************************

This is my new, one tag, also made with immages from Paperwhimsy, like the ones

from last post (the adress is back there). The other papers used ,is from a book full of

artpapers, bought here.

I don`t know about this, I posted it as a little thankyou to all of you, to use in your art, if you wants to.Maybe you can clean it up yourself in Photoshop, I am not able to do that, but it

symbolices the wonderfull sisterhood, I have met in blogland, on my blog.

I think that it was this toad ,that made me buy the gorgeus sheet from Paperwhimsy ,I think

he is so charming, and maybe a princess, -and not the prins!!!

The piece of fabric on left corner ,is filled with pailettes, but not easy ,to see here.

Have you ever seen this flower filled with ruffles? The head is only a quarter in sice of what

it shows here, but so beautifull, ofcourse I can`t remember the name,now I want to tell you!!!!!

And at long last my tulips have started blooming , I love this "rosy" ones.




Thanks all of you, for being here,- close in friendship,- and loving thoughts,
I`m returning both, with a very thankfull heart.

Love and hugs, to you all,
Dorthe

Tags made from new wonderfull images

Yesterday I discovered some wonderfull new digi-sheets over at

PAPERWHIMSY ,That I had to buy immedeatly.

And today I used a few of them to create this two tags. I love those old engravings,used with

natural colors.

I may be a bit inspired of DIANE and her beautifull tags, in my color choise!!

Hope it is ok sweet lady?

The wordbook piece is from the same digi-sheet.


Tomorrow I`m going to Copenhagen for the week-end to take care of my grandchildren.
Can`t wait to see them, it is almost 1, 5 montht ago,I was last there.

I`m wishing you all a beautifull week-end.
Love and hugs, Dorthe

Wood fairy, and more beautifull art from Diane

As you know ,I do like to work with all kind of things from nature, so when I

found a beautifull piece of wood, in my husbonds firewood stack, I immediatly

saved it, and made this wood fairy. Her upper body is made of fabric, but arms and

lower body, are wood, from our land.

I like her peat pot hat ,and the little bird, living with her.

**********************************************************************

Yesterday I recieved post from Diane again. I had asked this dear lady

if she would make me some tags,of the very special kind ,she invented,

with a little bag in front.

And I just love what she send me, and can`t get enough of her

beautifull,-and beautifully made art-you are a faboulous artist, Diane.

Thanks so much for taking you time ,in your bussy scedule,to

create for me.

Aren`t they so very lovely?

This with the feather so dramatic,and all of

them made to hold a little special something,

inside the bag.

Here a collage where you can also se how beautifull it was wrapped,and some of the

gifts Diane so very dearly ,send me last week.

Even it was very cold this morning, we ended up with the most beautifull weather,

sunny and quiet, such a lovely day.

Hope all of you was equal happy .

Love and hugs, Dorthe

and on the other side this little wonder.

And this was not all, -a sweet little notebook was part

of this fantastic giveaway gifts I recieved.

What better ,than saving notes inside here,

while thinking of beautifull France.

Happy mothers day

Today I have so many things to show,-and wonderfull giveawayes to tell about,

Instead I will wish everyone a happy sunday with this beautifull old photo, showing

the feminine part of a danish family.

M Y little birdhouse.

I almost finished my birdhouse, made from Karen`s (My Desert Cottage) workshop on Artists Class ,only have to find a beautifull flower to the foot, but wanted to show it now.

I used an old beautifull chair`s leg, that I mounted my very small birdhouse on.

Then found a piece of wood in the work room of my husbond.....to use for foot.

The bird, is not too clever, as he builted the nest in the opening of the house!!!!

The beautifull piece under the nest is an old iron handle,that I painted white, and under that placed a prisme.

I altered and rusted a piece of copper ,all shiny and new,-now as if it was there for ages...

Then mounted a piece of old wood cutting.The leg was beautifull old, so I just painted all the rest to look alike. Karen Thanks for a wonderfull tutorial, I so enjoyed trying to do this,even it was not possible to get all the materials here in Denmark.

************************************************************************************

This is just a little teaser, something packet and sent today, to a very sweet lady, who needs to be surprised herself,too--lol.(photo a little blurry ,but it`s ok, for now)

It is raining like it will never stop here, this evening,- so our dry ground, will feel well tomorrow.
I hope you are all feeling well too, and sending love and hugs.
Dorthe

The most wonderfull and unexpected gift

After having worked in my studio, yesterday in the morning, I went inside for lunch, and on the

kitchentable my husbond left the post...... among other things, I spottet a yellow envelope!!

And that meant foreign post....

I got so exited when seing that the sender was Diane Knott. I have followed Diane for some

time now, and am so very taken with her beautifull art. As a matter of fact I had just ordered some of her very special tags ,two dayes before ,this gift reached me,from across the ocean.
The first thing I saw was this beautifull card. I so love Diane`s use of old drawings, that she

makes so wonderfull use of,together with her altered bits and pieces.

Just look here, is`nt it gorgeus? I so love the ovals with the sweet images on---how dear Diane do you cut them images so precise? this is such a beautifull work of art.



And this tag ,I tell you my photo don`t do it right, it is so full of beauty

As is this two sweet tags,.........

One more special gooddie was tucket into this gorgeus gift,-a "Tag-Welope" kit

of Diane`s, full of her own sweet and wonderfull paper-cutouts,all in beige and brown

tones.

Se here,-I can`t wait to try making some special wonderfull things with all this.

Dear sweet Diane, this was a gift so full of beauty, --your art is lovely, and so perfect in making,-full of sweet small experiences,and wonders for the eyes.

I still can`t believe you just sent all this to me.

Thankyou from my heart, dear.

You gave me a very happy day.

**************************************************************

I hope you all have had a beautifull day,--some of you almost just started the day----

and wishes all you dear friends, a lovely evening.

Hugs and love, Dorthe
