A Few More Idioms

 Hello. I am back today with a few more pages in my Language of Hearts journal. The pages are simple so it doesn't take me very long to make them. I have just a few panels left to finish and then once I do my cover page,  my book will be done.


I am linking these up to Elizabeth's Hearts challenge at Art Journal Journey Here's a little view of how the journal actually looks.

It is another wintery morning here in New Hampshire. Yesterday we got a few inches of snow before it turned to ice and then rain. Today it is suppose to all turn back to snow at the end of the day. Winter weather is back, Mother Nature's way to remind us that winter is still here.
But it is Friday and only 2 more weeks until our winter week off. And my classes are looking good still! And nothing is better than burning a candle each evening that smells like my favorite  bloom-lilacs. Even if the outside weather is winter, my house smells like spring.
Happy start of your weekend.

    Wow, you have been busy! I love all your takes on everyday puns and sayings! So creative and so fun.

    Snow sounds like fun - we just have hot, muggy, rainy weather here in Alabama. If we don't get some cold weather soon, the mosquitos may take over and evict us this summer.

    Love your pages!!!

    There were so many clever art creations to go along with these idioms. You really did a wonderful job with this journal and while I have not commented on all the recent posts, I have read and enjoyed them. Yes, winter has returned to NH this week but as you said it is still very much winter.

    More fun sayings. Did you get a snow day or a delay? Schools were delayed yesterday here though Worcester got the day off. I wouldn't have liked trying to negotiate Belmont Hill on the ice!

    More fantastic pages for the AJJ theme Erika. I love the teapot and pouring out the heart. Its the sort of thing we would do , put the kettle on , make a brew and tell the troubles to friends or family. Great inspiration for the AJJ theme.

    Down here "Bless your heart" has a whole 'nother meaning ;)

    We got a bit of snow last night, which is always a major cause of excitement here :)

    You have created some fun, fun, fun entries. I should try to do something like that, too. You are so clever and your drawings are fabulous. Thanks beyond belief for sharing more of these fun idioms with us at Art Journal Journey using my theme.

    Oh, wow - I love a bit of wordplay (as you probably realise!) so these definitely put a smile on my face today. I love your visual representations of the idioms and phrases - so clever!

    Lovely assortment of heart artwork.

    Around 4pm yesterday, an unforecast snow squall came through where I am in CT. We had howling winds before, during, and after that. And today it's bitterly cold. :-(
