Pion Design - Refillable Summer Journal / Photo Album

Hello Everyone!

Today I have another version of a journal to share with you. I'm still playing around with different sizes and styles, trying to discover the best and most efficient album that would get the most use. This one features the newest Pion Design collection "Seaside Stories". I have also done a walk-through video, it's just impossible to photograph all of the elements.

Decided to try a new set up for the photographs...don't like it, I'm going back to my dark background.

Last week all the parks will filled with blossoms on the trees. It's one of my favourite times to go out for a walk. I was really hoping to run across some baby ducks or swans this year, but so far I have only seen the Goslings (though they are sure cute enough to keep a smile on my face).

One of our local parks fully in bloom!

"Who says the grass is always greener on the other side? Mine's pretty green, and delicious!"

~Gosling~

I SAW A NEW BIRD!!! How exciting to run across this gorgeous White Crowned Sparrow!

This spring is shaping up to be a good one! 

How much do I adore these little creatures!

Big ears, big eyes, wee little tail. What a combo!

"OK, I'm gonna come down now. You promised not to move, remember!!"

~a trail friend~

BABY RED SQUIRREL! It's difficult to tell in this photo, but this is the smallest squirrel I have ever seen! She's smaller than a lemon, including her head!

I have named her Petunia!

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.

Frilly and Funkie - Home for the Holidays

Hello Everyone!

It's time for another challenge over at Frilly and Funkie. This time Kathy is the hostess and she has chosen the theme "HOME FOR THE HOLIDAYS". She would like you to create some home decor for the holiday season.  You can make centerpieces, wreaths, banners, ornaments, wall hangings, or little vignettes... basically anything BUT a card for this challenge. If you don't celebrate Christmas or Hanukkah or Kwanzaa, then just make some home decor with a wintry theme. One lucky winner will receive a $25 gift certificate to Linda's shop The Funkie Junkie Boutique!

All of the following products that I used can be purchased at The Funkie Junkie Boutique

These photos are all from a couple of weeks ago.
For my landscape photo today, a few beautiful leaves clinging onto their branches.

For my birds today, I have this beautiful Red Winged Blackbird...

this sweet female Sparrow.

and a Red Breasted Nuthatch grabbing a snack from my hand.

This is normally where I would put a photograph of BON JOVI.
There will be no more photographs of my beautiful ginger squirrel.
I realize not everyone is interested in my wildlife hobby, so I have written her story in a separate post, for those of who would like to know happened...

HENRY is having a hard time finding any green leaves to munch on, so I take lettuce with me now.

This sweet girl flashes me one last thank you glance before disappearing into The Shire.

"Beggin your pardon Ma'am, but if you wouldn't be offended, I'll just stay here and you can throw me a peanut. If it's not too much trouble, that is."

No reason why you can't enjoy breakfast and grab some sun at the same time!

Back on the home front, we have ROCKY, wet as all get out! Oh isn't he a hoot!

And my sweet sweet precious KAREN having a nibble. I can't wait to show you how she looks now. She's growing in her winter coat and she's doubled in size in the last few weeks! HA!

Last but not least, my macro for the day.

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.
