LOVELY as always, the amethyst and aventurine look great with the red. Merry Christmas to you.
Thanks so very much Wanda.
I'm planning on making some new water and ice arrangements again soon ~ As soon as I find some space again in my studio, which is still in upheaval, as I slowly reestablish the order I KNOW is the first step towards doing anything new.
I hope you have the most magical Christmas ~ I know you will.
Thanks for all the guidance I've received from your Reading Cards this year. I have the 'poem' still for one a few weeks ago ~ Which will be my starting point for new drawings. ♥︎♥︎⚖️♥︎♥︎
I wish you a magical new year full of inspiration and universal delights. I love that you are doing the elements again. They were my favorites.... although how could anyone not love all your work. I am so excited to experience what is coming from you. Cosmic I am sure. much love!
This is a so beautiful arrangement that is wonderful for christmas my dear ! I wish you peace and sweetness for this holidays time !

Thanks so much Barbara and I love your Tree of Love.
I hope you have had a wonderful Christmas and that this new year will bring you much happiness and many blessings. I have a feeling it will be a very creative year. Happy wanderings along the way. ♥︎♥︎⚖️♥︎♥︎
Beautiful!! I am so Torn Between the words and the beauty of the elements. Hey lovely post and I'm so glad to see you so happy and content. Love to you my friend.

With much love to you too Denise and gratitude for all that you give to so many people here at Steemit. Your overflowing enthusiasm is contagious and so inspirational.
I'm so pleased you like this piece ~ And the words. We have a Christmas Bush Tree in our front garden and it's in full flower at the moment.
I hope you have a very joy-filled Christmas with many blessing truly deserved. ♥︎♥︎⚖️♥︎♥︎
Thank you!!
The composition of the photo is simply fantastic and the word give it something more to the image! Great!
Thank you so much Silvia. Underneath the ice was a whole 'collage' of dried ferns too which inspired me to think of:
Was a fun arrangement to make with the crystals and Australian wildflowers.
I hope you have wonderful Christmas celebrations with your family and many blessings coming your way. ♥︎♥︎⚖️♥︎♥︎
The aventurine stones look like my candies for sore throat 😁 Joke aside, this is such a beautiful arrangement, Ally! Merry Christmas! 🌲
Thanks so very much Daniel. Till tomorrow. ♥︎♥︎⚖️♥︎♥︎
So pleased you like the arrangement Daniel. Hope to do more of these ice and water pieces in 2019.
I'm working at making some of my posts 'simple' ~ While preparing a few major ones. And really love the reductive process.
I wonder if you have a special brew all ready to celebrate Christmas with? My Christmas will be kind of quiet as my family are interstate ~ Except that I live in a street filled with kids, who'll all be out and about with their new skateboards etc. I like the atmosphere they'll create.
Wishing you all good things for Christmas and your NEW Year. What will it bring? ♥︎♥︎⚖️♥︎♥︎
Merry Christmas Ally :D.
Thanks so much @scrawly.
I have an idea for doing something tomorrow that I've never done before. After the quiet time in the bush, I have the weird notion of going into the city and taking photographs of the city while it's deserted. But it's just a thought ~ Anything can happen.
I hope you have the most fantastic and magical Christmas day ever. It's a great day to spend a little time with your artist within as the energy of the day really supports creativity. ♥︎♥︎⚖️♥︎♥︎
