Tea...A Hug in a Cup

Hello Everyone!

Here's another journal page for Chris' challenge at Art Journal Journey. A bit of collage, paint, and mark making, and tried my hand at sketching a cup & saucer. I used black paint in a bottle with a fine tip for the writing and outlines. I'm also linking to Elizabeth's 'T Stands for Tuesday' Challenge.


And here's a cosy cowl I crocheted using 100% Merino Wool. I'm making full use of it on these icy mornings!


Have a great day!

I love the colours and the way you created the writing, teacup and saucer using paint in a bottle with a fine tip - amazing 😁. You must have a steady hand, not sure mine would be so neat ...lol 😉.

  5. This page is a truly wonderful entry for AJJ - your ink drawing is fabulous and the colours alone make me feel warm! I have been inspired by seeing your crocheted winter warmers and have my knitting needles and wool at the ready for a night in front of the TV! Happy T Day too! Hugs, Chris!
