Coming down out of the freezing sky with its depths of light, like an angel, or a Buddha with wings, it was beautiful, and accurate, striking the snow and whatever was there with a force that left the imprint of the tips of its wings — five feet apart — and the grabbing thrust of its feet, and the indentation of what had been running through the white valleys of the snow — and then it rose, gracefully, and flew back to the frozen marshes to lurk there, like a little lighthouse, in the blue shadows — so I thought: maybe death isn’t darkness, after all, but so much light wrapping itself around us — as soft as feathers — that we are instantly weary of looking, and looking, and shut our eyes, not without amazement, and let ourselves be carried, as through the translucence of mica, to the river that is without the least dapple or shadow, that is nothing but light — scalding, aortal light — in which we are washed and washed out of our bones.

Left of Center..New Challenge and 31 Days of Halloween..Day 30


Todays card is a design team make for the wonderful team over at Left of Center Creative Challenges and is also for Day 30 of the 31 Days Challenge. The challenge for this week s of course Halloween and will run for the coming week. You can as always join in doing an LOC make (for all details please check out the LOC blog)..if Halloween isn't your thing.


Our sponsors for this week is the great team over at Bloobel Designs. Now as you can probably tell I just adore these images and my greatest problem s deciding which one I would like to work with the most. For this challenge I chose to work with this wonderful witch and her cat. It's a bit like looking into a mirror apart from the fact she has a better figure..lol. It's a lot like me and my Raven..lol. I do hope that you will pop over to the Bloobel shop and take a look at all the amazing designs.

I can't quite believe it that the 31 days challenge will be over tomorrow. I have seen such fabulous creations and have loved every minute. I've got lots of ideas for next year..but some of them I will have to plan a little earlier and keep my eye out for some little oddities..lol.

Well the coffee is calling and then I've got some colouring to do. I'm undecided what medium to use yet though. I do admit to wanting to use my pencils but my paints are calling as well. It really depends where the cats are..lol. They tend to help so much where water is concerned. So until tomorrow...take care and happy crafting.
