Spring Goddess

Spring Goddess 1

After all the creepiness of Creepmas I am more than ready for Springtime, yes I know the weather is going to be so cold and snowy before then but our bulbs are already peeking out from under the Magnolia and the Primroses under the Weeping Cherry tree are already large enough to replant. For some reason we have a little Primrose nursery going on between the Cherry tree and the patio and I can dig them up and replant them in my borders where they are quite happy. They are so happy that in the area we call Foggy Bottom the Primrose plants are huge and are spreading beautifully.

Right after that brief foray into our country garden it's back to the fun stuff.

This gorgeous image by Rick has been printed onto neenah cardstock (Thank you Lisa great Christmas gift) coloured with promarkers and Spectrum Noir pencils (Again thank you to Lisa and family... they bought me three tins!) then imported into Craft Artist for the backing papers and lace.

Well would you knock and sing? Looks festive enough but something's not quite right. Looks a bit er... shall we say 'well ventilated' someone obviously doesn't feel the cold. At least there is a warning sign and a bucket full of unwanted presents. Sing if you like but well away from the door and don't accept a mince pie, you never know what might be in it...

Just popping around the neighbours for a mince-pie and a 'Hello,Happy Christmas'.. come to think of it.. we saw the Jones's wandering up the path with a small bag of home made biscuits and I don't think we saw them come out again?? Maybe they are still there just sitting by the fire drinking hot chocolate or enjoying the Christmas tree and twinkling lights or are they trying to escape before lunchtime??? Da da dahhh!!!

The annual family portrait... well happiness didn't last very long did it? Was the dolly broken before it was unwrapped? the teddy with a noose, the very, very scary jack-in-the-box - I'm sure we've seen him before.. talk about a very grumpy Creepmas morning complete with tatty tree I don't fancy the chances of any carol singers knocking on their door.

I love it if other people went to my blog and got the free digi stamps and used them in a composition. I would enjoy seeing other people use both the Ian and the Katie digi stamps. Here is my blog: http://carla-writes.blogspot.com/.../my-personal-digital...

So here is a very bad tempered Wizard who has really had enough of the festive season. He tried his best to cheer up the zombie kids with a few decorations but then the local witches started visiting him with 'goodies'. Now he has a cupboard full of those ditsy tins bursting with mince pies. More Christmas puddings than the whole village could get through. A fridge bulging with sausage rolls and cold cuts and sherry... sherry for goodness sake... who drinks sherry?

The 13 days of Creepmas Blog roll is on the right hand side bar you should have arrived here after AEIOU...and sometimes why  and your next stop should be Church of Halloween This is the last day of this particular hop. But the Smeared and Smudged hop carries on.

Henry is delivering presents and this is his last stop.. unfortunately this gift is wriggling far too much and Henry is in danger of dropping it. Patsy (with the three eyes) is just waiting for her moment to snack on the contents.

As always, neenah, promarkers, spectrum noir pencils and Craft Artist 2 for the papers etc.

If you decorate your house then why wouldn't Peter the monster decorate his? I know this looks just like an ordinary outside loo but in fact this is only the entrance to what is an amazing residence. Once inside all you will need to do is to kick the 'you know what' twice and woosh! you end up way underneath the wall where it opens out into three bedrooms, a mud room and the most beautiful kitchen designed by Batty.

As always neenah, promarkers and spectrum noir pencils and Craft Artist 2 for extra papers, sentiments and embellishments.

Maybe it would have been a good idea to accept the mince-pie and hot chocolate when it was offered. It's a bit late now to change your mind. And do you have a gift? Are you going to be the one to tell him the Jack-in-the-box has been opened?

I don't think I will be complaining about pine needles on the floor this year. This is a very, very old warning from a very, very old tree...

As the rat pointed out..there is work available and he so wants some shifts over Creepmas. At his last interview he was asked to bring his snakes - they were checked out and now look at them! They are as limp as..as.. well, as limp as limp snakes! The kids aren't going to be very happy if this is all they're going to get for Creepmas.

You would have thought after Pandora that where there are warning signs about not opening 'till Creepmas that this parcel would have stayed tightly be-ribboned. But no...

This is one angel you wouldn't want on your shoulder! He really is very tatty and that tinsel halo isn't fooling anyone.

This little cutie-pie Cathy is all ready to open the presents, although by the look of them they ain't gonna be opened without a fight. Poor Cathy... even her jingle bell is tarnished. The elves are being interviewed in the next room, even their snakes are being checked for suitable venom, if unsuitable the snakes will have been hatched, matched and dispatched! and the elves are going to be in deep trouble.  Cathy is ready to open one of the presents now so stand back!

This Creepmas Hop will have images and storyline every day for the first thirteen days of Creepmas then alternate days until Creepmas Eve.
As I am part of the Rick St. Dennis EDT this has also been shown over at our Airless Chamber site.
