Now that the OWOH Event is over it is time to catch up on
some other things which I am passionate about
but before doing so
I would just like to say a wonderfully big
Thank you so much
for all the amazing comments I received during the past 2 weeks
plus
all the many people who have decided to follow me -
I am truely humbled!!!
So now for some garden pleasures and a peep at a couple of pages I am working on for my
new Fabric Altered Journal.
It is coming to the end of Summer here in Australia and we are starting to see a change
in the colours of the hydrangeas
These have just been picked today!
The pinks are taking on a greenish/pinkish hue.
Don't these look stunning!
And after they have been left to dry in the vase for a couple of weeks
they end up looking more like this!
WOW! WOW! WOW!
Just so soft, papery and dreamy.
I notice also that June at Laughing with Angels Blog
currently has the most gorgeous images of
her dried Hydrangeas too so go and check out her blog.
Have a Wonderful Sunday.
Love, Suzy

Morning from the UK Suzie - those Hydrangeas are just beautiful as you said so soft and dreamy. Your journal is just simply amazing - through OWOH I have learned so much and have now joined an online course and am going to be working on a fabric journal. I went visiting charity shops yesterday and hunted out some beautiful lace materials. I'm also keeping an avid eye on ebay. - See what you have done !!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hugs Hilda
ReplyDeleteAnother good morning from the UK...I agree those hydrangeas are absolutely beautiful, just perfect. I find your work most inspirational, love it!

Beautiful pictures! Isn't it amazing how many shades Hydrangeas can have? I love them, I have few in my garden:)
ReplyDeleteThe hydrangeas are just gorgeous! Will your journal course be an online course?
ReplyDeleteYour journal pages are very beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI love hydrangeas and always try and dry mine as I use them in my mixed media projects and they are so useful for adding a finishing touch to a page or label. Lovely photos.

WOW,WOW,WOW is right Suzy!!!!! Your hydrangeas are gorgeous! Just like everything you do. And thank you so much for the wonderful mention here! Are you sad that Summer is coming to an end? Sometimes it is hard for me to let go of it, but the garden has gotten so large (because I just keep creating new beds) that I welcome the rest from all the hard work, but then I am so anxious for Spring to come and for it all to start again.hehe I'm sure you know exactly what I am talking about!
ReplyDeleteIt is always so good to hear from you!
sending hugs
Suzi, your hydrangeas wear the same colors that your CQs do!!! Perfect!! I just received my CQ magazine from Pat Winter and your article is on my reading schedule for this evening! I can't wait to curl up with a cup of tea and read all about you. Isn't this magazine beautiful! I feel honored that Pat asked me to participate with exceptional CQers like yourself.
ReplyDeleteHappy Sunday....or is it Monday there already?
Hugs, Diane

ReplyDeleteThank you all for visiting and making such lovely comments. It would be so lovely to give you all a bunch of these soft hydrangeas but the images are the best I can do....enjoy!!!
ReplyDeleteYour journal pages are wonderful! The hydrangeas I have from last fall are golden brown and papery. The colours on yours are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteYour fabric journal continues to inspire my work. We are looking for signs of Spring in the USA and I have enjoyed seeing your garden bloom all through our winter.
ReplyDeleteAnother wonderful journal underway! The hydrangeas are just gorgeous Suzy!

I go away for a week and another fabulous fiber piece shows up, you never stop creating do you. Hydrangeas are gorgeous. I do so love how they morph from blue to pinks to fade away. Thanks for sharing those wonderful photos. xox Corrine
ReplyDeleteYour fabric books are so beautiful. I have been working on some of my own and you just put them to shame! haha!
ReplyDeleteI am in awe!!
ReplyDeleteSuzy your new book pages are gorgeous, and the hydrangeas looks so beautiful on your table, they have wonderful colors.

Hi Suzi,
ReplyDeleteI've just received my copy of Pat Winters mag and was so delighted with all the pages. I'm here to read your blog and admire your beautiful work, it's great to meet you and find yet another 'Kindred spirit'.
I am passionate about fabric books too,
Best wishes, Angela.
Your fabric book is stunning and so are the flowers.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing.

Oh, your Hydrangea's and Journal Page are breathtaking! They sell the potted Hydrangeas here in the stores but I'm not certain they would thrive in such heat if planted outside? They are among some of my favorite flowers so I do wish I could grow some of my own for cuttings to have fresh ones in vases around this ole' House!
ReplyDeleteYes, I was beyond chuffed at my MP bag scores... I actually purchased TWO from the same sweet Seller... the other was my Valentine's Day Gift (see a previous post)... and that one was in pristine condition so I didn't have to make any repairs. It was also a fur bag, so even rarer to find!

I wish I was sitting right next to you while you create these wonderful journals. You just have the touch. I so enjoyed your post today. I love hydrangeas. We had a foot of snow fall overnight. So we have spent the day digging out. What is with this weather. It was in the low 60's a week or two ago. LOL Hugs, Sharon
ReplyDeleteHi Suzie - managed to get a digi copy of CQ and have just printed it out - your article looks fab - am looking forward to devouring the whole magazine - haven't seen anything like this in the UK x Hilda
ReplyDeletebeau travail en préparation et magnifiques hortensias..
ReplyDeleteFall is my favorite time of year for my hydrangeas!!! I am so inspired by all of the color changes that occur and the fact that they dry that way is such a wonderful treat! Yours are stunning as are your fabulous pages!!!!
ReplyDeleteVoce realmente é abençoada, uma GRANDE artista!

Последняя версия Adobe Photoshop это просто сказка для дизайнера!
ReplyDeleteПочему? Просто посмотрите что можно с его помощью делать: простое выделение сложных объектов, удаление объекта, с автоматическим заполнением фона!
Да еще много чего можно придумать! Adobe Photoshop можно получить здесь с кодом активации:
