Good morning Janice! 🌸✨🐸 YES they put too many good images back to back, which makes the magazine gorgeous but also difficult for us to choose which images are chosen for our creative work lol! Hope you are having an awesome day over there today! 🌈💕🐲
Amy it was so lovely to have your company whilst I played at the desk, you certainly have harvested loads of beautiful pictures and words to create with. Have fun. Freddie sends his love to Sophie🐾❤🌳
Good morning Janet, wonderful to see you! 🐸✨🌈 Oh playing at your desk, I wonder what awesomeness you are up to over there? I'm sure Flo is also creating away, with Freddie relaxing on his cozy chair. (perhaps waiting for a candle to be lit so it will be snack time soon haha!) 🐶❤ Thank you so much for visiting the forest today, the beasties get so excited when the always magical Janet pops in! Sending lots and lots of love and hugs to you, Freddie (extra kisses from Sophia for Freddie of course!), Flo and the fam from me, Sophia, Evelyn Rose and all the beasties over here! 🐉🌸🦄🌳❤✨💚
Yes, I think about tics in the fields. No we don't mow in May and we get lots of dandelion flowers for the bees and we get stares from our neighborhood folk that think the pretty manicured lawn with no bugs is the best way to keep their yard. I say HAH to that. I'll take the bugs and bees thank you. It snowed today, the buds are not really peaking out yet in my front yard. Perhaps we will have green grass next week. But this is the normal spring in my part of Alberta. Northern Alberta takes longer to bloom and southern Alberta begins much earlier, but I think they had snow today too, because of the foothills and mountains. We get lots of birds in our yard as we have feeders in the front and back yards. It was fun looking at the birds and the flowers. Thanks, enjoy your cutting. 🙂
Good morning Erika, wonderful to see you! 🌼🐲🌈 Oh yes I totally hear you about the dandelions, bees and stares from neighbors! We have many neighbors that want that perfectly manicured lawn - no variety, no wild flowers, just green grass. Which would be fine if it were just naturally green, but theirs are treated with all kinds of chemicals so NOT good for Mother Earth for sure. Me over here, I have clover, grass, dandelions, moss and whatever else feels like growing! (but the bunnies seem to enjoy munching on my yard the best!) That's wonderful you have so many birds that visit your feeders, must be a delight to see them. Spring has arrived and they know it for sure! The birds are in full display over here trying to impress each other and singing like crazy. Love it! Thank you so much for stopping by today my friend. Wishing you an awesome day today! 🌼🦆🕊🌻✨🐸🐉💚
Amy, I wanted to let you know that I loved the possum you drew and sent Possum Patty! The one with the horn and wings! It was adorable!!! You are talented at drawing those cute critters!! You found some lovely pictures for your glue books!!
Good morning Rachel! 🌈🦄💕 Oh my gosh thank you so much for your kind words about the magical possum I drew for Possum Patty, that is so sweet of you! 🥰That little possum insisted they wanted to go live at Soggy Bottom and go on some adventures there. You know with Possum Patty there is sure to be a lot of fun for sure! So glad you popped by today for a visit. Wishing you a wonderful day and hope to see you again soon! ❤🍄🐉🦄🌈🌸✨
Good morning Linda! ✨🐸🌈 Oh that's so cool that you see more images you can grab from your Birds and Blooms magazine after watching this! I love when that happens when I'm watching someone's video. It's easy for me to miss words a lot of time. (trying to get better about that!) Hope you are up to some good fun with the images you collect! Have an awesome day! 💕🌸🦄
Good morning! 🐸✨🌈 It's so fun to flip through magazines and see what images there are to discover isn't it? I love both watching other people harvest and of course doing it myself lol! Hoping to get some stuff glued into the castle glue book over the next few days and get it going so it actually starts to (hopefully!) look more castle-y. 🤣 Thank you so much for hanging out with me today, hope you have an awesome day! 🌻🐉🌸🦄🌳❤✨
"get ear plugs" ....Amy you are too funny !!!!! Glad you chose the bluebird over the star flower......i just love the look on that bird!!! I think that look came when it heard your owl pun lol Great job on harvesting those mags.... what was that chicken pot pie recipe ??? lol lol trust me the last thing i need is another chicken pot pie recipe. It's one thing to introduce a new recipe around here but when someone in the abode is used to the tried and true Cpp we have been devouring since forever...best to not try and reinvent the pie. Great fun going through the mags with you Tweet Tweet and Quack Quack
Good morning Barb'ra and ice cream unicorn! 💚🌻✨🐲🌈💕 Hahaah I can't think of better advice for someone saying the birds are too loud besides "buy ear plugs" or perhaps live on a houseboat out in the ocean??? 🤣 Bird's gonna do what a bird's gonna do right?! Oh yes I do apologize for the bad bird puns... not even on purpose too!!! There WAS a chicken pot pie recipe, well spotted!!! Which makes me think... you must have the BEST chicken pot pie recipe of all, seeing as you run the society - any chance you might be willing to send it to lil ole me sometime??? (no pressure if it's a family secret recipe!!!) Always so much fun to see you my friend! Hope you are enjoying an awesome day. Tweet tweet quack quack and see you again soon!!! ✨🐾🦄🦉🦆🌸💕🌈🐸✨❤💕
Good morning Laura! 🐸✨🌈 Oh that's fantastic that together we found some more images you can harvest from your BHG! It's so easy to miss things - I'm sure I still missed stuff even though I tried to be thorough lol! Thank you so much for stopping by today my friend! Sending lots of love and hugs to you and your horsies from me and all the beasties over here! 🌸🦄🌳❤🐴🌼🌈
omg yessss my idea is becoming fleshed out!!!!!! this is SO EXCITING 😍😁😍 never seen or heard of a tulip TREE? wow im obsessed. i was supposed to get a lilac cutting this year but she is now in another country for a few months😢 we both forgot about it AGAIN THIS YEAR AHHH!!! i love them so so so much but I'll be patient for next year, lol. i got my very first apple tree last week tho! a honeycrisp ❤ love these apples. i hope everything will grow alright, first time i planted a tree!! im slowly starting my seeds indoors now, we have 2 weeks until the last frost so things will start happening soon!!!! during this im working in my everything journal, ive just been working in this one cus im sooo eager to complete it. i have 25 pages(spreads) left to fill🥰 so exited! things are popping up here, so im going out for some botanical sketching soon😍 I had the worst hay fever last year for the first time in my life too.. thus far I've not had any symptoms this year, I'm praying to the old and new gods it stays this way lol😊 really felt like I was losing my mind last year, because we have 6 months of winter so I was indoors for like 9 out of 12 months of the year. I cannot do this again😭 wish me luck! I'm checking my mailbox later and I hope to see your happy mail soon! I haven't been very creative lately because of external reasons, but I will get yours ready soon!! me and the crows are having a little breakthrough everyday it seems😮 one or two of them are very comfortable with me, and they have started to sit on my railing and look at me observe me, very curious about me! it's really hard to contain myself because it's like a dream come true 🥺💘 I love my life i juuust ordered my first ink and brush pen (pentel one) for outdoor sketching and i cant wait! i completed finished the ink in my micro brush pen from DT(which i LOVE btw) and after adding water and emptying it completely again, i had to get some actual ink😊 really excited to give it all a try. probably my favourite art supply at the moment. something about the black pigment against the watercolour backgrounds just hits me right. i try to do no mow may every year😊 we need to get a new mower tho this year😅😅 They're so pricey! wow I have been wondering what this eagle screeching sound was the last week, seeing as there were no eagles around every time I heard it??? but I feed the local blue jay population and that makes a lot of sense😂!!!!! sneaky buggers blown away by mother earth goddess WOW!!!!! ❤ was great hanging out again, it's been a while!! much much love and lobsters from my beasts to yours😊💘✨ have a magical week!!
Good morning nads, awesome to see you! 🐸✨🌈 Yes I'd never heard of a tulip tree either, wasn't that fascinating? That is SO exciting that you got your first apple tree!!! I would love to have an apple tree - we have two peach trees, two blueberry bushes and some strawberry plants but no apples (yet!). So wonderful you have lots of seeds you started indoors that will be ready to plant outside soon. It's always such a rewarding process to see plants grow from seedlings. So glad you're feeling better this year and I'm definitely sending you lots of extra lucky wishes for good health and lots of happy outdoors time! That's amazing that you're making progress with the crows, I'm sure they can sense your beautiful, gentle, creative spirit and want to be near you. 💕 Outdoor sketching and and an ink and brush pen - sounds like a dream! Do you mostly like to sketch botanicals? Mowers ARE pricey! Now there are electric options too which seem like the way to go if possible. My neighbor has one and I'm a bit jealous lol! Blue jays certainly are noisy, and I know they make those screeching sounds, but I didn't realize that was their hawk impersonation! So clever of them isn't it? Now when you hear it you will have to peek around and see if you spot any blue flashes flying by! Thank you SO much for hanging out with me and spending this time, and also for your thoughful comments which are an absolute delight to read. I feel like we are chatting together and I love it! Sending you and your beasties lots and lots of magical and whimsical love and hugs from me and the beasies down here in the forest! 🌈🌳💕🍄🐸✨🐉🦄🐾🦆
Hello Janice, wonderful to see you my friend! ✨❤🌈🏰 Yes you are right about that - there are often times pages with two amazing images on either side, and deciding which one to choose can be a challenge. So glad you were here hanging out with me today my friend! Sending lots and lots of love and hugs from me and the beasties! 🐸🌼🦄🌈🐉🌸❤🏰🍄
Hello Janice! 🌸🌈🦄 I'm sorry to say that I just checked the ole doki doki email and don't see anything from you. I've received some email from others so I'm not sure why yours isn't getting through? Hmmm.... do you have Instagram by any chance?
