In my quest to lure you over to my new site I offer this little tease. Bekeh are the out of focus points of light in a photograph. They give this dreamy quality to pictures. The other day it was barely raining, and the sun was shining through the trees, and it looked magical. Here is one of the images from that day. Please visit the Gilding Lilies Blog to see a lot more images from the morning.

        

This was a classic at Grandma Boss' cocktail parties. Well, I confess, hers didn't involve vegan cream cheese, but you get the idea. This transports me instantly back to the 1960's. Whatever happened to cocktail parties anyway?
So, dear readers, I want you to know that this blog is going to begin to fade away. I'm going to be concentrating on the new blog here. So please go over there, and subscribe, so you don't miss out on anything. I will continuing with all your favorites like Meatless Monday, and Flowers On A Friday, etc., and all my random ramblings. See you there. Thanks for following me, I appreciate all the support. 

        

This is the final day of color week. I've had a great time, and I'd like to thank Curious Girl for sponsoring it. Today, we had the option of either featuring rainbow colors or shades of white. I believe I was the one that requested that white be one of the colors, or should I say non-colors, so that's what I'm doing. I love shades of white. If I didn't have pets, my house would be decorated in soft creamy shades of white. I love it. It seems like such a contradiction because my artwork is so colorful, I don't know, maybe that's why I like it, it's a place for my artist eye's to rest. Enjoy one of my favorites with me, white. More shades of white over here.

        

The top image was made in Polyvore, which is always a great way to waste time playing. To see even more beautiful greens, and to see a slide show of my cards, please visit the new Gilding Lilies Blog. Thanks.

        

Today's color is purple, one of my favorites. So here's some purple.

 

 

 

And now for The Big Announcement! I've started a new company called Gilding Lilies. On Tuesday, my new greeting cards started running through the press, and it was so exciting! Please go visit the new Gilding Lilies Blog to see pictures from the big day. Here's a preview.

 

 

 

        

Here is some bold yellow and orange for you. It's funny, yellow is one of my least favorite colors, yet I had a ton of photos featuring yellow as the predominate color. Maybe I do like it?
Tomorrow, I will have a big announcement, but until there, have a super sneak peek at a little of what I've been working on over here .

        

The last photo is a reflection of clouds in a giant silver mirrored sculpture in Chicago Illinois.

        

Today, I wanted to do a Meatless Monday post, but I also wanted to participate in Curious Girl's Color Week, so I decided to do both. Today is all about red, and what's more red than tomatoes? So, here we go.

        

Sorry I was tardy, but it's nice to know that somebody noticed.
Happy Birthday Kathryn.
