On My Kitchen Counter

Just a quick shot of what is on my kitchen counter

after one spends a week in Switzerland.

I thought I better take a quick shot of it ,,,as I really don´t

think it will be around for very long.....do you?

Have a nice Sunday.

Who Won II

A quick note to announce who won a few magazines and some

authentic German chocolate.  Stay tuned, as I will do this again

in the near future.  I have a lot of magazines to pass onto you.

I wish I could send all of you some tasty chocolate but I had to
limit it to three people at a time.  I´d appreciate it if you three
would please email me your postal addresses by Sunday 13 May
and let me know if you prefer Milk, Dark or White chocolate.

In the meantime, go visit these winner´s blogs for your artfix for today.

German Magazines

 Covers of some of my favorite magazines.

 Interesting articles and fun things to cut out for collage work.

 Does this make your sweet tooth hurt?  You know German

chocolates are some of the best in the world.

Would you like a few copies of some of these magazines?

Even if you don´t read German...the photography is stunning

and it would make a good conversation piece when your friends

pick it up from the coffee table and realize ,,,hey, what is this?

If you would like a few copies and a tid-bit of some German chocolate,,

leave a comment and I will pick a name on Sunday, 6 May.

Tell your friends, blog about it.....who doesn´t want German chocolate:)

Full Speed Ahead

Everything is blue in this batch of cards.

ok, the pink batch tried to wittle their way in....

It´s all hearts and using up my paper stash.

I am partial to blue and brown together..

If you want more blue and brown inspiration go have a look at

The Chocolate Blues....that will surely give you a good dose

of these two colors together. Maybe you prefer blue all on it´s

lonesome. How about beautiful Turquoise?

Have a nice Thursday!

Don´t forget ,,,this is the last day to enter my GIVEAWAY!!!

Enter and test your luck.

Chocolate

Can you ever get enough chocolate?
This is a chocolate tag which I sent to
Anneke back in January.

She sent me this tag back in December and

since she loves the color green and comes

from the land of fine chocolate....I knew she

would appreciate such a tag.

You may also remember another

chocolate tag of mine.

Wishing you a wonderful Sunday.

What Makes You Sing?

Money Talks,,,Chocolate Sings

A creamy piece of Belgian chocolate direct from

Belgium is enough to make anyone´s taste buds

sing a pop tune or even an opera aria for that matter.

Louise from Tag Tuesday wants us to use our

scraps leftover from Christmas. I don´t have

any cardmaking scraps but I have plenty of

candy brochures and wrappers from all this

Christmas Belgian chocolate that we ate.

I know it´s a rough job but somebody has to do it.

I cut up a brochure to create a praline edge at the

bottom as well as the tasty piece my model is holding

in her hand. A blue foil wrapper is used as a collage

element including some of the brochure´s script.

This is all adhered to a watercolor background which I

stenciled with music notes and stamped with flowers.

Go pay Tag Tuesday a vist....you´ll like it and while

you are clicking around the web... go take a look at

Take a Word where the prompt is Music.
