You can't tell from this photo that I was on a vast expanse of beach and there all on its own close to the sea and far from the hedgerow was this fern.

Art Challenge
On today's Art Challenge on 12 Months in View we were given a poem to use as inspiration for our page.
As you may know I've been on a bit of a roll using my gelli plate printed backgrounds and I thought this one looked suitable for the poem.
I found a piece of cardstock that was a dark colour but not totally solid or black and cut a keyhole shape out of it. Here it is lying on a blank piece of paper.
And here it's over the background paper.
I stamped and stencilled over the background before sticking the two papers together and sticking them into my journal. I wrote the poem out, firstly in black pen inside the keyhole and then in white pen around the outside.
Thank you for stopping by.

Rocking Your World Friday
Whilst looking through people's contributions to Summer of Color I discovered Virginia's blog at Celtic House.
She has a weekly meme on Fridays which rather appealed to me. This is her description from her blog:
"Rocking Your World Friday is the moment to step back and take stock of your week, to work out the positives, the things that have made life more bearable and to celebrate these facts. Pop a post together, come back and link each Friday and let's share our positives around. It's a great therapy and stops life slipping through our fingers or spending too much time dwelling on the negatives. Not sure if it's for you - give it a go - you'll never know until you try!"
So I thought I would give it a go.
My silver linings this week:
Talking on the telephone to Andy & Naomi
A great evening out with Roger.
Dinner at Strada and having a 30% off voucher for it
Seeing and listening to Hugh Laurie with the Copper Bottom Band at Symphony Hall.
Discovering a new talented musician, Bruno Major, who was the support act for Hugh Laurie.
