the number at the top, so you can come in and only have to look at the number
to see if there’s more added during the day.

Only 2 days to go…

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This is my last ‘regular post’ of the year 2011.

From December 25 to December 31, there will be
a daily post, including artwork inspired by the music

MARIT’S TOP 2000 BLOG PARTY

You are all invited to visit these daily posts or -
even better – play along and send in your art
that is inspired by the music.

(Find the link to the top 2000 list and the email address for
top 2000 submissions in the side bar)

I especially recommend you come and visit my blog on Tuesday,
December 27  – as the post will contain a ‘waahaaa announcement’ ;)

And now: I want to thank everyone who send me a Christmas card!
I had no time nor budget to make and send all of my blogfriends a card
this year, but I wish you all happy, happy holidays and a lovely and
creative 2012!

I stay in the Christmas mood with a photo and my haiku…

Waahaaaaa!!!

Yeeeeehaaaaaaaaa!!!

I’m sorry, I’m  sorry if you’re (temporarily) deaf now, but I just had to yell!!
IT somehow has to come out – and because I can’t say anything about IT (yet)
I thought I’d shout!

You don’t have to wait long before I share IT with you though -
I will tell you next week.

Huh? Next week you say? You aren’t going to write blogposts then, are you?
Next week is all about the top 2000 – or am I wrong?

No, you’re not wrong, but IT has something to do with the top 2000.
Sort of. Uhm. Yes.

I better keep my big mouth shut now before I accidentally spill something
and spoil the fun…

Let’s move on to art journaling then, shall we?

I woke up early this morning.
‘They’ said on tv yesterday evening that it could snow at night
- but nope, outside it was grey and rainy.
It still is.
That was a little bit disappointing.
Just a little bit.
It didn’t effect my mood.
Not really…

I lightened my Christmas branches.
I made myself a pot of strong coffee,
and I wrote a haiku!
