NOTE TO OUR ARTISTS:


I’m sure you all have noticed the absence of Marie (Ozstuff) in the last couple of weeks. Marie is recuperating from major surgery. In the interim, Ann and Bev will keep our Three Muses, Take a Word and Digitalmania challenges up and running. We know you join us in sending Marie our thoughts and wishes for a speedy recovery.


UPDATE 10/27: Marie is having a long and difficult recovery. Please keep her in your thoughts and prayers.

This week the theme word is VINTAGE.  What is vintage?  I guess we think of it as old sepia photographs but where does vintage start and end?  The 1960's are 50 years away!!  Show us your idea of vintage.  Anything goes.

Take a Word Challenge - MOON

Apologies to all my friends at Take a Word over the past weeks.  I have been missing in action a lot and I haven't been able to keep up with commenting.  My husband had a massive stroke three months ago and finally passed away this month.  I am looking forward to new beginnings at the challenges and getting back to "normal".

This week our theme word is MOON.  My imagination took me to this rather strange place! Click HERE for credits.
