My novel

 I am joining NANOWRIMO for the first time.A program on the net that encourages you to start writing the novel that's been sitting around in your head for awhile.It's each Nov.,as I understand.Starts Nov.1st.The idea and challenge is that on your own computer or even hand written you commit or try your hardest to write/type a 50,000 word novel in one month.Submit it to NANOWRIMO.They count your words.You don't edit or try to make it perfect as you go.You just type what you think would be a good story then edit in Dec.Yes,I've had stories hanging around in My huge imagination for a long time.In just a couple of days it starts this year,want to sign up and try with Me?


I spend some of My time you might have guessed day dreaming about forest dwellers living in the woods.Humans, elfens,little creatures all my own since I was young.So I'm going to have fun putting them on paper for My family.
See,I have even painted this forest village long ago  :)
Love,Denise

It's Another Fanciful Twist Party ! YEAH !

Come right through the front door.

All ages and  kindly gentle kinds are welcome.

A Fanciful Twist party in the back yard.

That's the way,don't be afraid,never at A Fanciful Twist party.

Don't worry,their Grammie knows they are really  good  :)
 
Just for fun,even for all our wee little boys.Good always prevails if your Grammie's there with tales where the good always wins  in the end.Pumpkins and costumes will be judged from smallest to biggest. 


Be careful of your behavior,I know how to make sure only the good win.These two had to be thrown into the gallows.

She, of course  is one of the winners .


Gifts are always given out to the
 good and gallant.


One of the gallant winners.A dream of a knight.



One more winner :)

Thank you for coming to My party,if you want to see the best of the best of blogs visit Vanessa  at- A Fanciful Twist-on the top of My sidebar.She always enchants with good, no matter the season-Goodbye for now.Love Denise and family :)

Time For Tags...again : )

I have really enjoyed receiving,making and giving tags : )The"Tea Time" tag I made with the tiny tag in the teenie envelope.



"Back To School"Sept. tag.
I like the medium size tags,they are perfect for trading.Loving the combo of old buttons,lace, ribbon and glitter.Nothing new for Me.

The envelopes are fun to make too.

This one is called "Give Me Hinds Feet",it's just for My Bible.
I tried making smaller paper crafts,inchies, A.T.Cs and larger cards but something about tags are perfect right now for Me.I know this is an over done-been there done that-type paper craft but I still enjoy trading them all around the world. Makes Me happy.

Nights in white satin.



 Excitement for soft winter whites in My bedroom and kitchen   have Me dreaming of the next season.Christmas shopping starts very early for Me so it's easy to start thinking of those frosty nights. Us Southern CA. girls can at least dream ; )


Getting the tea ready to
calm Me.....








then to slip under the sheets,

just what I need.


Enjoying the peace of a wintry white night, at least in My dreams. Love and hugs to you all-Denise



One of my favourite songs that makes me realise God’s always around. — Dancing with God, Verse 1: You dance over me While I am unaware, You sing all around But I never hear the sound, Chorus: Lord, I’m amazed by You Lord, I’m amazed by You Lord, I’m amazed by You How You love me Verse 2: You paint the moring sky With miracles in mind, My hope will always stand, For You hold me in Your hand.
