I have just looked at how many blog posts I have written this year. Must try harder next year. Have finished all my notebooks. Number 49 is a card cover with a photograph of my Father when he was about 5 or 6 which I used on the invitations to his special birthday party.
The cover of notebook 50 is a black and white photograph of the meadow taken several years ago which has been printed onto silk then machined onto paper with plain paper pages.
Corrine at dosfishes inspired me to paint a large sheet of paper. I used orange, magenta, lime green and turquoise.
Which has been used for notebooks 51 and 52. 51 has been made up using strips of painted paper with coloured tapes and circles of the painted paper.
The back of 52.....
...and a section of the front.
They have plain paper pages. I have been listening to "The Best of Van Morrison" while writing this, there are so many lovely songs on that CD. This evening I am going to watch "The Way" about the pilgrim route.
Thank you all so much for your kind comments and friendship throughout the year. There have been points of this year when I have almost given up blogging, then suddenly there is a lovely message from someone and you know why you do it. I wish each one of you a very Happy New Year with lots of fun, laughter, creativity and good health.

Love that photo of your dad, how sweet and those old cars are so neat. Thanks but I don't think you need me to do anything - you always inspire me with your varied talents and I can't wait to see what your 2012 projects will be. I do love all the bright colors though and the blossoms. Most Happy New Year. xox Corrine
Well, I'd certainly miss the glimpses into your lovely insights & creativity that you show us here. A little occaisonally is fine by me.
Happy New Year to you x
Congratulations on completing your 52 notebooks, what an achievement! What will you do next?t I don't think we should ever feel obliged to write a blog - it should be a pleasure, so here's to a pleasurable 2012 and blogging when inspiration strikes.
People like you, blogs like yours are what make blogging/blog hopping so much fun and why I keep at it myself. You don't need to post a lot but I hope you will continue to put up a post as often as you feel inclined to. I like seeing what you are creating and enjoy your "voice" here.
The vibrant colours you're working with are a joy. Looking forward to following you through 2012. Happy New Year!
