Murphy’s law …

February 8, 2010 by articat

… struck again!  Yesterday, we went out for lunch.  On the way back from the restaurant to the car, there was an icy spot on the street which I could not see, I slipped and … fell down.  Thank goodness, it was only very painful, but  nothing got broken!  However, the whole right-hand side of my body hurt (and still is hurting!), I did not know whether I should stand, sit or walk …  so, unfortunately,  I was neither able to sit in front of the computer nor to download photos … I hope I will manage that during the week … 

And, at the moment, it is starting to snow again … can’t remember such a long, snowy and icy winter!  The last one was decades ago …

I am still alive …

… and hope that I can manage to enter some winter and cat photos during the coming weekend!

Here’s already one photo of Ludwig, our British Shorthair tomcat (isn’t he just cute?):

 

This phot is a little bit older … in the meantime he weighs 8 kg and is a very sightly tomcat and has two companions, Tolouse and Passepartout, as well British Shorthair tomcats.  Most of the time they are bosom buddies, but there are other times, too ;-) !

I made this card last week  for my husband’s birthday.  He really loved it!

Back again …

February 3, 2009 by articat

Well, after some personal blows I am back again in the blogging world and hope to update regularly.

Meanwhile, my creative muse returned … and here are first results.  I made 6 ATCs for the “Flourishes ATC” swap via the Yahoo group of ArtchixStudio :

1b_flourishes_atc1

2b_flourishes_atc2

3b_flourishes_atc1

4b_flourishes_atc1

5b_flourishes_atc1

6b_flourishes_atc1

For each ATC, at least 1 ARTchix image from the Art Flourishes collage sheet or transparency had to be used.   And some of the images were quite predestined for a maritime theme.
