Thankful {things I love} Thursday ...

It took me a while to decide what to do with  a folder of artwork ...

I like to use my own designs in my collages & have lots of samples

where I've tried out new paints, pens, markers, brushes on ...

and I actually came up with the idea while I was tearing them up  ...

 and saw all these gorgeous colours and patterns :-)

~hidden treasures~

and decided to CUT the remainder up ...

I then created a few collages ...

 maybe I will sew a few together and make a garland ...

or a really big piece of abstract  art!

I have a box full of triangles just waiting to begin a new life :-D

for now ...

they made for a lovely patchwork quilt

it was a bit like sitting with puzzle pieces

as I fit one half of a painted butterfly with another

 ♥

we got a huge blast of Winter yesterday

which left us with a few more inches of fresh snow ...

and the tennis ball that Archer left outside a few days earlier

could not be found ...

even though he tried so hard :-D
