Once again I don't have much in the way of anything to show you... I added some more of the stencilled flowers to the second page I shared last week, but kind of ran out of ideas to do anything with either... but I was just playing with the stencil so that's ok!
I had another lovely time at Kew last weekend, getting there for 8am - full post here
I know several of you already saw them (thank you!)
Those flowers look good flipped and i do like the second photo fro Kew. Must go and see what it looks like now - off to your Photo blog.

I must say that I really like the way that that page is building up Helen. Beautiful pictures from Kew too. Hope the weather holds up for you this coming weekend. Stay safe and happy WOYWW. Sarah #?
ReplyDeleteHi Helen, always love your gorgeous photos. Journal page coming on nicely too. Have a good woyww, Angela x?x
ReplyDeleteMorning! I really like that flower stencil and can see you using it for many things in the future. Look at those peonies, absolutely gorgeous! I've messaged Julia re the blog btw, but no response as yet/

Morning Helen. I like you flower pages - some sentiment about a visit to Kew. I can see you are really glad to be back there again. Well done for booking yet another visit - although you are right - the forecast isn't that good - dewfilled (ie. raindrops!) photos next week?
ReplyDeleteTake care. God bless.

The pages will speak to you, you’ll suddenly get an idea while you’re in the middle of something else, and then there’ll be a panic to get it done so you can go back to the flowery page. It’s really pretty. Are they Oxides...they look like chalks. Aw, so nice that you’re getting back to Kew, reallly enjoyed your last post.
ReplyDeleteHi Helen
ReplyDeleteSometimes, just playing is the best thing. You will come back to them in the future I'm sure and make something satsfying when the mood takes you.
I'm glad you've got back to Kew. Booking our days out we don't have to be choosy about the weather do we. We are having some days out next week but are just having to arrange them regardless. Even if it's wet it'll be nice to be out.
Have a good week

ReplyDeleteHi Helen, lovely journal pages, looking forward to seeing what you do with them next. Beautiful pictures from Kew, one of my favourite places which brings back very happy memories. Happy WOYWW-day :) Annie C #17
ReplyDeleteThat was funny this morning! I couldn't decide whether to comment or not! But all' s well now. It's nice sometimes just to take your time with things and just play - I know I don't do it enough. That second photo is so clever!! Happy woyww, Stay safe,stay well, Cindy #8

ReplyDeleteI'm late in the day visiting this week but it's better than last week's effort lol.
ReplyDeleteI've spent the day replenishing my basket of face masks...but as soon as I fill them they sell so it's a bit like painting the Forth bridge :-)
Love the page of flowers....gorgeous colours.
Hugs,

Great photo with the water droplet! Very creative. Have a fantabulous week! Lisa-Jane #1
ReplyDeleteI am totally in love with the colors of those ( are they peonies?) they look yellow on my screen ( and mine all seem to be shades of pinks from the lightest whisper of pink to darker hot pink) (I keep trying to get a red here and have never seen that shade before)
ReplyDeleteLove the wall to wall blooms on the journal pages too Helen, ~Stacy #25
Your page is beautiful! The flower stencil looks great both directions! And the cream colored flowers, Wow! Also the last photo is fascinating! Hope you have good weather for your trip to Kew!

Hi Helen!
ReplyDeleteYour flowers in the journal look really good and we don't always have ideas so just doing something simple is fine! I must say your photos from Kew are lovely!
Have a lovely week
Lots of hugs from

Your stencilled flowers are so beautiful, Helen! Also the gorgeous Kew photos. I am so glad you can go regularly again. It must be such a haven after a busy week at work. Even if the weather isn't good, it will still be beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThank you for visiting and for your kind words. When I started on the whole-food plant-based lifestyle I didn't do it all at once. The transition was fairly gradual. I thought I'd never be able to give up certain things but in time you adjust and no longer crave the bad stuff, and your taste buds wake up and function as they should, and things that might seem bland become really tasty. I do use a lot of interesting flavourings (herbs, spices, lemon juice, vinegars etc.) and it's all very tasty. Now I'm organised in the pantry and with my weekly meal planning, it's not so difficult. I agree that the bladder scan situation is silly! I still haven't heard from the physio and hope she phones soon as there's a time limit on all this. It doesn't half drag on...
Happy WOYWW,

It's a beautiful double page Helen, you suddenly have a light bulb moment which will guide you to it's completion, just enjoy it for what it is right now. Love the last photo, done with a glass ball yes?? Fab.
ReplyDeleteCan't find the hours to join in on Wednesday's but i'll pop in when I can for sure. Take care & I hope the weather is kind this weekend Hugs Tracey x

Happy Belated WOYWW. Your journal page is looking gorgeous. I am slightly addicted to all things floral at the moment. Enjoy your next trip to Kew. Is it busy there? Ali x. #28
ReplyDeleteThanks for your visit, gremlins in the first link up so sorry. Love the roses so thought I would visit the Kew post, absolutely stunning. Can see why you like it there. Ani
ReplyDeleteooh stencils, there is a thought, I was thinking about how to add some design to a background piece and this is perfect! Thanks once again for the inspiration and hope Kew wasnt too wet

Wonderful shot with the glass ball, and oh those (?) peonies - heavenly. The flipped flowers look great on the stencilled page - and I already know they're going to get even better!
