Phew - just made it, with a few hours to spare! Inchie Monday is challenging, but I opted for easy, this week. The topic is Flier (I think Flyer, in Canadian?)
This is a dove I cut out of a greeting card, glued to a piece of black origami paper.
Regards your comment on AJ's Tea post, the question I was occasionally asked when visiting people’s homes as a TV man was, are you a MIF or a TIF? Tea in First or Milk in First. Tea in first scalds the milk as it joins the larger quantity of hot water. Milk in first does not, since the milk gets hot more slowly, so your mother was one of those people who could taste the difference and so was my mum. Obviously both were expert tea connoisseurs.
I've just looked at the Flickr link and saw yours but couldn't see Chris's set. It is a lovely challenge though and there are some great ideas. I love AJ's feathers.

Our lives are like a patchwork quilt; a work of art by a Master Designer. Life is made up of joys and sorrows; good times and bad; excitement and the daily grind. The underside of the 'quilt of life' seems to have little or no design, but the finished product is truly a masterpiece, and is the joy of the Creator.
Here is a place for me to share the 'patches' that make up my life. it may not look too great right now -- but I trust the One who is "working all things together for good" in it, will be pleased with the end result!
I am 72 years old. When I was a child, I was told by my art teacher in primary school that I would never be able to draw - so for 60 years I never tried!
Thanks to some great encouragement from my sister, a number of years ago, I actually tried - and discovered that I actually do have a bit of talent.
Art is a work of creation, that we inherited from our Creator. It is in our DNA in one form or another. I don't do as much as I would like to, but I will post my attempts, from time to time.
Over 100 incredible missionary stories from around the world. Read about their lives, their challenges, their joys and heartaches, victories and defeats! You'll laugh, cry, pray --and you may even be changed!
It works well.
ReplyDeleteSimple but effective. I like it.

PS; I've left a treat for you and Chris over on my blog. x
ReplyDeleteThanks ColorFly, and thanks for stopping by!
ReplyDeleteSnafu, you would think your mom and my mom were cut from the same stock when it comes to tea!
Hope you join us with your "inchie" Elizabeth!
