Goodie swap with Butterfly...

I did a goodie swap with Alison..

 I received a yummy package with a beautiful tag.... 

...doilies, diecuts, paper napkins, small pocket envellopes, cheesecloth, Embossed CS, some fabric, and not on photo : also some beautiful  ribbon from Webster pages. 

She really spoiled me, THANKS again Alison!

Abstract painting is the theme this week !

Although this is a real challenge for me, I did enjoy doing this! 

Messing around with color and shapes. 

If I had to do it agian, I would approach it differently, I think.. 

I started off on a monoprint that was not to my liking; that's the red in the background.

Building character is what happens if you make mistakes in your life, and learn from that. 

This page is about that. 

It's part of a bookpage from an 'ancient' educational book for children, learning to read. 

It's a typical dutch picture as you can see, the boy with his father's 'klompen', way too big! 

He gets warned that he will fall, and get his just-cleaned trousers filthy... 

He says he will not, BUT there he goes, all wet and filthy on the slippery ice!  

Hope you like it!
