Ambush bug with a captured wasp, yellow jacket or other similar insect. Fierce critter!

Photo by BB
In BB’s yard. Ambush bug with captured prey on green plant. Not being an entomologist I can’t identify the prey for you. Curious if the ambush bug curls up the end of the leaves and if so, why?

Ambush bug

Photo by BB
Interesting critter in BB’s garden. Have never seen one here before. Called an ambush bug. Creamy yellow body darker highlighted body parts. Seen on green leaf. Next pic will show why they are called the ambush bug. I am not an entomologist so can’t name all of the body parts for you.

Recycled art

When a used envelope with window becomes junk journal art 🌿

See ALT for process
On right is an envelope that normally would be recycled. On left is what I make with them. This envelope became a pocket with a window in it. The end if the envelope without the window is trimmed down to the desired size. The side of the envelope is carefully opened so I can line the inside with a piece of paper that will show through the window. The envelope is glued back together on the side. Thin decorative paper is then fit around the window pane and folded to the back of the piece. Scrap paper is perfect for this part. The project is turned over and more scrap paper is added to the back to completely cover the envelope. A notch is cut into the top to indicate a pocket and the top corners are rounded with a corner punch. All edges are inked in light brown ink to give it an aged look. I then make a rag or small booklet with an interesting piece of ephemera that will show through the window to put in the pocket. Additional ephemera, washi tape or stamping can be added to the piece as desired. It is ready to tuck into a junk journal or be glued to a page in a junk journal.

Cozy warmth on a cool night

Wood stove at the mountain retreat
Colorado
Cozy up 🫂🍃🌿🌱
Cozy fire in the wood stove at the mountain retreat. Plenty of wood in for the season. Have to go up between storms as the roads get challenging in the winter. Got behind a snow plow once across part of South Park and was very happy to follow them because I had no idea where the edges of the road were. Always travel the Colorado mountains with some basic supplies.

Cloud tops
A glance below
View from the plane window. Flying through clouds when there was a break and the sun shone on the tops of the cloud layer below. We flew into a storm. Rather jolting and lots of getting into new landing queues. I love watching the clouds from the plane window since I can only see the tops of the clouds that way. The clouds below the plane are on the lower left. Upper left is the dark storm we were flying into. Light wispy clouds fill the center and right of photo as the sun is breaking through the clouds in the upper right of photo.

Bookmarks made from the top piece that is torn off a tissue box to open it. These still need some ephemera on them and an eyelet and cord or ribbon if desired.

See ALT for process
Three base book marks made from the top piece turn off to open a tissue box. I cut the piece down slightly on all edges with a mini paper trimmer to take the perforated edges off. Thin paper is added to one side at a time then trimmed around the edges. Usually a decorative paper is on one side and a lined paper on the other side for journaling. Once both sides are covered, I corner round at least the bottom and sometimes the top corners also or just angle notch the top. Bits of mini tags, cut out flower images or washi tape is added to decorate the bookmarks. These three tags are not decorated yet. I make the base and then add to them based on the supplies available and the theme I am doing. The far left bookmark does have a bit of washi tape added to the right side. I always add the washi tape with liquid glue as it has low tack adhesive on it and can sometimes fall off of a project after time if not glued in. Recycle, recycle 🍃🌿🌱

Tags or journal cards made from recycled bits for use in my junk journals.

See ALT for process
Two tags made from recycled tissue boxes. I can get about 9 tags that are approx 3 1/2” wide by 4” to 5” tall out of each tissue box. Also. A get smaller tags and 30+ little punched circles for closures on mini portfolios. Rarely any waste. I cover each piece with a thinner paper as the base that is glued on. Usually one side of every tag has lined paper like in the photo for a journaling space. Next I decide on a bit of edge paper to add interest. I cut a piece of paper a bit bigger than the tag and tear it down the center randomly so I will have two pieces for two tags. The torn edge is inked with a brown antique ink color. The torn piece of paper is then glued to the right or left side so the tear is on the inside. I then trim around the tag ends and take the excess paper off. The bottom and sometimes top corners of the tag are rounded with a hand punch and the top corners are angled to look like a tag. The entire edge of the tag is then inked around the edges to make it look aged. Little labels or other flat ephemera can be added if desired or stamping can be done too. On some tags I add a metal rivet or eyelet to add character. If I add the eyelet, ribbon or cord is tied through the hole. I save pieces of ribbon and cord so most of my project is from recycled pieces 😎🌿 I try and make up as many tags as I can and then put them in a box so when I go to add them to journals I have a fun selection to choose from. Ephemera can be added to the tags based on the theme of the journal. Even the long piece of box that is torn off the tissue box to open it is used to make book marks 🍃🌱

Prickly water lily
Native to India

Botanic gardens
Denver
Closer photo of the surface of the green prickly water lily. It is native to India. Light shines on to parts of the surface. Very distinct redfish brown lines run through out the surface of the lily from the center of the upper side of the stem seen in the top of the photo.

Goodnight and peace to all 🌱🌿🍃
The sun setting on the horizon. Foreground is the beach with several large pieces of kelp washed ashore with the upper edge of the pieces highlighted. The beach in near full sunset with the sun reflecting on the newest wave to come to shore. Mid photo shows new layers of waves approaching shore with the sun casting pink, purple, orange and yellow highlights across the waves and beach. The sun just before going below the horizon looks so tiny in comparison to the beauty it is sending into the sky in all directions. A yellow fanned ray is coming off the very top of the sun while orange, pink and soft purple rays glow out from each side of the setting sun and go horizontally across the top of the ocean.
