Commedia del'arte #426

 Hi, here's my painting/card making desk this week.My great friend, LLJ, had a birthday, and, knowing she likes hares, I did her a card. A little joke as well, with the bamboo, as she's trying to eradicate it from her garden.





I also painted her a reminder a brilliant day we once had at Wallington hall, kicking up leaves like crazy. This was why I was practising leaves a few weeks ago - not that I could say ;-)  oh, and a pair of the lapis infinity earrings I was working on last week.

Brian and I went to see the Rude Mechanical Theatre company on Sunday, with another friend, Chris.  - they come and do a Commedia de'Arte play every year on our village green. It's part of a tour they do. They're very funny and talented. I think they only tour the South of England, but they're well worth going to see if you have a chance.

thanks for visiting/commenting. Have a good WOYWW week, all. hugs, Lynne xxx

Oh you're a thoughtful friend! Lovely card, and I know the bamboo reference would have raised that laugh...!! I think its fair to say that you have the rendition of leaves and their curling movements under your belt.

What a lovely and very thoughtful card - and gift. Glad you enjoyed the Theatre, nothing like a night out like that to cheer one up (that is if you need cheering - nice anyway)

Thank you for the beautiful handmade card and presents, I love them all. The bamboo did make me smile, it's definitely looking a bit sicker than when you last saw it :-D I don't know if we'll ever win but it is diminishing slightly. And Wallington is a great memory!!!

How sweet the card you did for Jan. I also saw it on her blog! What a special birthday! I also loved the joke with the bamboo! LOLOL I'm sure the show was great fun! Wish we had something like coming round here! Probably in the big cities, but now in the small area I live in! Fun! Make it a great Wednesday, Felicia #27
