It wasn't until I was nearly finished that I realised how Webster's Pages this palette was, darn it! I was inspired by Helen's page - particularly the music, so I screen grabbed my easy listening playlist and whacked that on the page. (I will put the full list on my blog)
Testimony: Document something you enjoy daily. The Scheme - yep, Evidence: bird, leaves (real ones?), wet medium, stripes, ribbon, tearing, speech/thought bubble. will come back and put ingredients in.
The title is a play on a movie I saw once and loved, but have never seen it again; Coffee Tea or Me.
journalling reads : "How can I explain that, besides tea (my life - blood) and my favourite music, I also enjoy tulips daily? I grow them in Spring. I've always loved them, and when I look throughout the house, they follow me about; photo album covers, books, patterns, desktop pics at work. I have memories of nagging Mum and Dad every year to take me to Tesselaars (THE tulip farm in Australia), and seeing the amazing varieties and colour combos. The tulip on the page is one I grew this year - Happy Generation. I've also included my favourite PlayList - 'Depression in the Mix' which I put together over a couple of years - just my easy listening playlist (not the angry beating one!).

I'm pretty particular about which version of the music it is. There are so many re-dos and take offs over time of some songs and they all sound different or have a different spin, whilst others which I love, don't get revamped! (Bittersweet Goodbye I love but no one has ever heard of it!)
My brother gave me the latest Richard Clayderman album (I thought he was dead?) and these two pieces went straight onto my favourites list. I love how he plays them!!!
A beautiful fresh spring look to this page Kylie....your teacup is divine and I share your love of tulips. We travelled to Tessellars one year and ordered dozens of them....they looked glorious for one year, but sadly don't like the climate here at all. I love the cheeky little birds and the ornate frame. The icing on the cake has been the play list.....LOVE the Bach Cello and the Mad World (has to be that version), Halleluljah is a fave too, but I prefer the Leonard Cohen version. Will be back to check out some of the others on the list that are new to me. TFS
ReplyDeleteLove your style Kylie!
ReplyDeleteI've only just discovered Leonard Cohen at SongPop. I'm learning lots about modern music there. He comes up alot in the category 60's Folk. When I first saw his name I said 'Who?' but I know lots of his songs!
