      Colours and inspiration

      12th February

      I have been 'off ' my game so to speak this week AGAIN!  Beginning to wonder if I am suffering from S.A.D so I turned to old photographs to inspire me and bring back my enthusiasm which is normally oh so me.  Are you inspired by colour and nature?  Everywhere I walk, drive, visit becomes this wonderful mind map of colours and inspiration, sometimes I am able to capture it in a photo to remind me later and other times I try and commit it to my memory. My cup over flows with all these colours whizzing and swirling around wanting me to put them into a crafting make...  Sharing with you today five colours that I hope can in someway inspire you too...


      PINK










       GREEN






      


      RED












      WHITE






      






      BLUE










       YELLOW

















      Sharing my colours that inspire today and joining in with
      Amy at Love Made My Home, pop over and see what others are sharing
       
       
       
      ♥  Hope your weekend is filled with Valentine love  ♥

        Such pretty pictures! Pink is my favorite, especially when it's the sky at sunrise or sunset. That always makes me smile.

        What a good idea. It's so nice to see lots of colours instead of the everlasting grey of this winter's sky.

        Love the purple bench and yellow day lilies. Hope your SAD just drifted away. I get that with all this snow many days. You know how to handle it. Color helps a lot. It is starting to snow again in Central Ky. and I have to go out today. May not go out. LOL

        The colours were inspiring, especially for those who live for several months with nothing but a white landscape.

        Well, I wanted a bit of cheering, too, so am very glad I popped in to see what you are up to. The pictures are all inspiring, but the red container on the fuchsia coloured bench (at least, that's how it looks on the monitor), along with those sunny blossoms, definitely take the prize!

        We still have snow, alternately melting and freezing. I can hardly wait for spring, but here it will be at least another couple of months. So thanks for sharing yours. I loved the idea of you sitting outside with your lunch, too . . . so hopeful.

        Hope the increasing sunshine, along with some good walks, has you feeling your usual self very soon. Big hugs ~ Linne

        I would also like to travel with Ted
        I'll see that he's fed - and well read
        I'll dress him in red - and put him to bed.
