Sit down, relax… I won’t bother you with announcements.
I have some fun photos to show.
And a haiku.
Oh, and an art journal page.
And yes… a winner for the giveaway…
In fact: TWO winners!
Enjoy!
For Haiku my Heart
Can you believe this audacious guy was on my window? I just had to take
a picture!!! (I removed him afterwards, but the damage was already done)
Langzaam schuivend laat
de slak een spoor van slijm na op mijn schone raam |
The slow moving snail
leaves a slimy trail behind on my clean window |
Haiku My Heart is a wonderful place where people from all over the world
post beautiful photos and and write amazing Haiku. It is hosted by Rebecca
and you can find the list of participants here at Recuerda Mi Corazon.
Remember the faces that appeared on my last art journal page?
I cut out a whole bunch of them at the time and here’s the other page I made
using those shapes. I’m not sure if I like it though. I did when I started working
on it last weekend, but now I’m not so sure.
Oh well, you can’t always have a WOW…
Face in the crowd

Finally: you were waiting for this weren’t you?
(Or did you scroll down right away ๐ย )
We have come to drawing the winners of my give-away!
Here’s how I did it.
I devided the comments into two groups. Three actually:
the ones who prefered the AJ package (20) the ones who prefered
the scrapbook package (11) and the ones that didn’t make a choice
or liked both – yeah, right… you wish!ย (7)
The latter were added to the scrapbook-package drawing – to equal
the groups. I ended up with this:
ART JOURNAL PACKAGE
Sarah |
SCRAP BOOK PACKAGE
Jess |
I used the random generator at www.random.org
For the ART JOURNAL PACKAGE the generator chose this:
Congratulations to this Dutchie in Germany!
For the SCRAPBOOK PACKAGE the generator chose this:
Congratulations to this ‘naughty girl’…
I will email you to get your addresses ladies!
One more congratulations goes to… my brother!
He’s far, far away from us (he emigrated to Canada with his family years ago)
and it was his birthday yesterday!! Hope you had a lovely day ‘broertje’.
I don’t know if his package arrived yet, but when it does I will show
on my blog what I made for him.
That’s it for today folks…
Be happy and enjoy the weekend!
Ojeetje, echt? Ik heb iets gewonnen? Heel, heel hartelijk bedankt, ik ga het paketje in eren houden en natuurlijk goed verwerken!
Een heel fijn weekend! – Irma
Ik vind je pagina met al die hoofden wel een grote Wow-factor hebben hoor! Persoonlijk zou ik er nog liever wat zwarte lijnen bijgezien hebben, but hey, that’s just me! Ik vind ze leuk!!! Enne..ik heb hele files aan slakken langs mijn raamkozijn lopen..kids vinden het geweldig! ๐
Congrats to the winners!
LOVE those snail photos Marit – you are so good at photography. I would like to spend a day outdoors with you, just taking photos for Haiku my heArt – that would be such fun!! I think I’d try to be bi-lingual like you too – awesome!!
I think that’s a really strong art journal spread, but I find it quite disturbing, to be honest – the faces look so sinister!
Have a great weekend, my friend! xo
Congrats to the winners!! Loving the photo of the snail and the poem to wrote to go with it!! Awesome page as always…loving all the faces!! Happy Birthday to your brother! :):):):):):):):):):):)
Great photos of the snail, and a wonderful haiku. I wonder if the snail heard it? Congratulations to the lucky winners.
Peace

Your slimy visitor was the perfect haiku inspiration !
Congrats to the lucky winners of the giveaway !
I am loving the interesting faces that you are playing with myself. May this weekend find you some moments of lovely play as well, my Friend !
Light and LOve !
I love your snail!!!!
I happen to love snails!
Sorry I missed your giveaway! I am back and I LOVE your snail haiku. snails are sexy little creatures. I love your journal page, also. wild faces!
You captured the snail brilliantly.
I have not been around and writing here as much as I would like. Will try to do better. I fell and broke my shoulder last week. Monday I must have an MRI to see if I need surgery. I love this place. Wish I had a new PC so I could download my art work. Loved your Haiku.

Die slak heb je mooi gefotografeerd! Bij ons kruipen ze op het pad,en dan zo als je ‘savonds thuis komt je er boven op trapt! Zo verrekte zielig!!! Ik vind je art journal wel mooi! Het idee van de hoofden alleen al is geweldig. Gefeliciteerd met je broer!
i know it’s not good to have a snail trail on your clean window, but I miss the small gifts like that of a wetter climate
I absolutely love your faces idea!
Well I love the snail, slimy or no. You simply take great pictures and the haiku is wonderful. I do like your Face in the Crowd. I think it is plenty Wow! It is very modern and you are always so creative. I have so much fun coming here!
xoxo,
Noelle
There must be something wrong with me. In my mind I have made some interesting comment, but I must have been dreaming. I come back to your post (not just yours but others too) and realize I never typed anything.
Anyway, congrats ladies. Enjoy your goodies.
fabulous Haiku. i love, love that snail photo. it’s so awesome.
and I think your faces are really cool.
hope you are having a great day and enjoy your weekend. =)
i love how the snail appears so translucent with the light through his body. you see he is a great adventure who was brace enough to leave solid ground in pursuit of light!
marit, i always enjoy you so! you have a place in the hearts of us all!
that was suppose to be BRAVE!
Dank zus. Nee pakje is er nog niet maar ben wel erg nieuwsgierig!! We gaan maar 1 x per week naar de post, volgende week vrijdag dan maar!! Kus je Broer
Oh I love how the journal page turned out. Those silhouettes are very cool and the base colors are my favorite!!! Congrats to the winners! Woohoo!!!
Wat een gave foto`s van de slak, Marit! En je Haiku is weer heel mooi evenals je art journal page…die ogen vind ik geweldig!
Groetjes Viv
Sorry meis, dacht dat ik al een commentaartje had achtergelaten…. (komt waarschijnlijk omdat ik vrijdags even op het werk snel even je blog bezoek. Als ik dan later weer kom heb ik zoiets van oh ja, die heb ik al gezien…)
Die koppen zijn zooo leuk, ben het wel met Rosie eens… ze kijken een beetje “sneaky”. Maar misschien dat ik ze juist daarom zo leuk vind!!
Congratulations to the winners, and the face page is fantastic ๐
What a great picture,love it!And your page looks amazing,lovely colors!
Congratulations to the winners!
I love your work! You never disappoint!
