Before I start, I would just like to extend a huge thank you to everyone for all of your kind condolences on the loss of sweet Linda. I am so very grateful to each of you for your caring support! Your comments brought tears to my eyes, but joy and comfort to my heart! Thank you!
For my landscape photo today, a snap of The Shire where I go to take my photographs. The leaves are starting to fall now, making for a breathtaking walk in the mornings!

A female juvenile Cardinal - "Care to join me in a crazy dance? It goes something like this... One step, two step, flap flap flap!"
There is a man who roams the woods with a slingshot, he is a horrible man who has taken the lives of several birds just that I've seen, and he takes shots at squirrels too!! This quote comes to mind when I think of him. - "You can easily judge the character of a man by how he treats those who can do nothing for him." James D. Miles
Don't give me that look FREEDA, there's a peanut right beside you. It's not my problem you climbed right over it! Silly girl!
"What do you mean you're out of peanuts!" "Nooooooooo!"
BON JOVI looking as beautiful as ever!!
Something has worked up HENRY'S appetite because he is licking his lips in anticipation!!
And back on the home front, my sweet CRAZY KAREN sticks her face right up to the camera. I think she's hoping that a peanut may be hiding inside!! lol
PATRICIA on the other hand, watches from above. Waiting for the excitement to die down so she can eat in peace and quiet. What a shy gal she is.
Last but not least, my macro for the day is this dried up leaf. There is beauty everywhere, don't you think! Notice the detail is a little better, I upped my game as promised! lol
That's it for today. Thank you for stopping in and for all the amazing comments. If you have any questions or interesting tidbits about today's wildlife, please let me know. Happy Weekend to you all, see you on Monday!
Oh my, this is gorgeous. The lady looks so elegant, the tags are so pretty and the flowers create the most perfect finish. It really is so beautifully romantic. Have a lovely weekend, Sandra X
ReplyDeleteIndeed super gorgeous DP from Pion Pamellia. Just love your creation, looks awesome. Great pictures too, as you say there is beauty everywhere one just has to be willing to see it AND appreciate it. I even love watching my chickens sometimes they can be so funny. And they are so smart too. Enjoy the day, hugs Veerle
ReplyDeleteWonderful card. Love the photos. Some people are very bad, that's true, they like hurting other creatures. Have a fun day, hugs, Valerie
ReplyDeleteAs always, a lovely creation Pamellia, evokes thoughts of Spring and Summer.

What an amazing card - just beautiful
ReplyDeleteBeautiful hun, gorgeous collection and layers, hugs Liz xx
ReplyDeleteWhat an elegant card Pamellia and you have showcased these new papers perfectly. Great photos...beware of that man in the woods, he sounds aweful. Yes the macro is brilliant...I can almost touch that dew on the leaf. Hugs xx
ReplyDeleteWhat a romantic card you have created Pamellia - love the papers, and you have made great use of them.
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear of the loss of Linda - it always hurts when loved ones die. I don't like the sound of that man at all :-(
Your Shire photos are beautiful, and you really seem to capture the essence of the character of the creatures! The macro photo is incredible.
Blessings

So gorgepus card Pamellia, it take my breath away :)
ReplyDeleteA very beautiful card with such beauty on every later.
ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing place you can go to take your photographs. It will be different every time with light on the trees and the weather. Thank you for sharing your photographs
Love Chrissie xx
Such super pretty colours, Pamellia! Love the photo of the 'astonished' squirrel! :)
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend! xxx
so pretty card!
ReplyDeletehugs
Gorgeous card - so soft and feminine. I think the man in the woods is sick and I would be reporting him to the authorities.
ReplyDeleteAre you EVER right about those incredible "rose" papers, Miss Pamellia! Softness, peacefulness, a certain sanctity of self... beautifully done. I always like the way you tuck goodies into your layers - like the tags, ribbons and leaves - and the pretty horizontal lines that have pearls or provide a break for the background layers. Lovely!
ReplyDeleteYou certainly captured the sun perfectly in that landscape shot, P. Don't you love the "unexpected" AHHHH moments when the sun filters through the trees and highlights something, as though that moment was created JUST FOR US to view and enjoy, and as though the Artist of the Universe is giving us some sort of amazing gift at that very moment? And of course, we turn another direction, and become just as enthralled with some other Prettiness that is completely different from the one we just enjoyed?
I was thinking about your quote, and the man with the slingshot. How sorry I feel for him. Something twisted and terrible happened to him to cause him to enjoy harming Nature's gift. Something is missing in his heart. Or worse, something has been taken from his soul at some time in his life. Perhaps it is not that he is terrible, but that something terrible HAPPENED to him, that has caused him to behave the way he does? I always feel sorry for people who cannot feel... cannot feel outside themselves... because I know somehow, they were/are damaged.
Freeda is too funny! Like you, when I look at things (any thing at all - alive or inanimate - I immediately sense a story LOL too funny! Freeda was just in a hurry to see her dear mom - and when she saw you, she was so happy, she became spellbound for a moment! LOL
Darling photos as always, Miss P, and I thank you for sharing your wonderland with us.

Too me... this card should be in a museum specifically designed for heirloom quality cards Pamellia. This is sheer PERFECTION. Honestly - I am not even a pink person but I have to just say... this seems to me to be one of the most beautiful cards I have ever seen you make. It's not to much nor to little, it's dainty but rich, it's extremely elegant but gentle. Every inch of it is SPLENDID BEAUTY. I'm awed.
ReplyDeleteAnd your family is so adorable. What incredible pictures. Hheeheheh - so fun to see their little tongues and precious expressions. They truly made me giggle. The cardinal picture is precious. And wow - your leaf is amazing to see. You are so talented and bring such joy to our lives. Thank you. Xj.
Beautiful card, as always, Pamellia! I am so sorry about Linda--I was wondering what happened when I saw her photo on your sidebar. These photos are fabulous! Is there any way you can report that horrible man to the authorities for cruelty to animals?
ReplyDeleteLet me back up here, Pamellia. I just read your response to my comment on your previous post. I completely forgot Linda was the one with the mass on her face. I was just telling my mother a few weeks ago about how kind you are to her and the other animals. I feel so terrible. The important thing is that she had someone like you who cared enough to do all you could to bring her back to good health. What a blessing you are to her and all the animals. Hugs.
ReplyDeleteYour card is beautiful, soft serene and gentle ... In total contrast to the evil person in the woods ... How heartbreaking to hear this ... Here's hoping karma come to him!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, that is the most beautiful card, Pamellia!! It's dreamy and romantic and totally takes my breath away!! What stunning papers!! You've showcased them perfectly!! The design is amazing and the details you added are just perfect!! I absolutely love, love this!! It's shabby chic perfection!!
ReplyDeleteYour landscape pictures are quickly becoming my favorites...though I still adore the critters, too :) You capture nature so beautifully!! That shot of the Shire is amazing!! It needs to be framed and hanging in a gallery!!
The man with a slingshot makes me sad. That quote is perfect. There is something wrong with people who hurt animals for any reason. Your shots of the crew are stunning!! That "no peanuts" shot makes me laugh!! And your macro is amazing what stunning detail!! I've so enjoyed strolling through the Shire with you this morning my friend!! I hope you have a wonderful weekend!! Happy Friday!! Big hugs :)

ReplyDeleteluv CHRISSYxx
Oh no... just now I have seen Linda's photo in the sidebar and thought "What"??? ... She seemed feeling well... So so sorry for her and for your lost! She has been lucky in her life... has had your love and care...!
ReplyDeleteYour shots today are very fun! The squirrels make me laught and smile, expecially FREDA and CRAZY KAREN! And HENRY and the joung cardinal, too!! They are fabulous!!
I'm with Lisa: there is something wrong with people who hurt animals for any reason! They doesn't have love in their hearts. So sad. I hope he breaks his leg and stay at home!!! Go away! Grrrrr.... I'm furious with these horrible persons!!! Does the law allow this to him? The Share isn't a protected zone? Can't you do anything?
Your card has a so sweet feel... really a delicious and delicate feel! These papers are amazing and love very much the sweet lady with the butterflies... she love the creatures :) Your design is amazing, such a talent!! Adorable shabby style, very romantic and soft!
Hugs my friend!
So soft and beautiful! I love how you cut the papers to make the images dimensional. Great inspiration. Hugs, Autumn
ReplyDeleteStunning card Pamellia, love these gorgeous new papers, love those patterns and colours, they are so feminine, beautiful layering and textures.
ReplyDeleteEnough said above about that horrible man!..love your amazing shots today..
Hugs Pam x
Its easy to see why you love the new products, your card looks gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteThat horrible man with the sling shot should be taken to task, how would he like to be on the receiving end .
Your photos are wonderful and I love reading your updates on how the squirrels are getting along .
Yvonne xx
Oh my, those papers really are quite simply gorgeous ... but in your hands they are amazing, your card is wonderful, feminine and the butterflies are delightful!
ReplyDeleteThe baby Cardinal is so very sweet, just adorable doing her funny little dance. I am so sorry to hear about that horrible man though, I would definitely report him to the RSPCA if he was over here... it should not be allowed... On a happier note, your macro shot is excellent, you really did up your game. Hugs, Anne xx
Stunning make, so spring like :) Love that shabby bow you tucked in with flower arrangement and those little butterflies all around.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous!
Hugs

Oh Wow!! Such beautiful papers used to perfection .. absolutely adore your card. Perfect layering and stunning design .. Love, love, love. Your photos are stunning as always I especially love your landscape shot .. so ethereal and so beautiful. Your little friends are always a delight and I cannot fathom that someone is actually going around deliberately to do them harm. It really beggars belief!! I have faith though that he will get his come-uppance one day!
ReplyDeleteThank you for another delightful post!! xx
So pretty! The papers are gorgeous and I love the pretty pastel colors you worked in! The details are amazing Pamellia!!!
ReplyDeleteThe snap of the Shire is so beautiful...simply breathtaking! Your critters are so darn adorable. It's like they sit there waiting for you so they can show off..I love it! They are so stinken cute!

ReplyDeleteAnother breathtakingly beautiful set of shots! Love them all! I can't tell which one is my favourite beacuse they are all perfect! Bravo!
I am so sad to hear about that horrible man, if I can call him a man! The quote is so true and I completely agree with you! I am sadly surprised that he is allowed to do that, or he is not?!
Sending lots of love to you! Branka xx
Geeze, Pamellia! Your creativeness knows no bounds! How you have worked and layered these gorgeous papers is magnificent, and now I have a new favorite! I'm not a pink girl, but I'm in love with it now! The pearls and the flower bouquet are the icing on the cake! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this card and ALL of your amazing work!
ReplyDeleteThank you, once again, for sharing your beautiful photography skills with us! I love seeing things through your eyes, and that photo of The Shire is heavenly! Shame on that man for what he does, but please be careful, Pamellia! People like this are just working up to bigger and better things! REALLY--BE CAREFUL! I adore the cardinal shot and the chickadee eating from your hand...AMAZING! And speaking of amazing, I've never looked at a dried up old leaf and seen such beauty--great shot! Sending you big hugs, my friend!
Oh My! Such a fabulous romantic look to this! Once again your layers have me agape! Your photos are simply amazing! From the misty glimpse into the Shire, the beautiful wildlife and then your brilliant close up of the leaf! Oh I do love to visit here!! Glad to be home for a few days ! Hugs, Chrisx
