Creative Tuesdays - Everyday happiness

The  challenge  this week for Creative Tuesdays was thought  up by Christine.

I thought a lot about this one and what everyday happiness meant to me.  There are so many things, but it came down to my morning Redbush tea in my bone china mug. Well tea at any time really.  Depending on what time of day it is and what I am drinking I have specific bone china or porcelain mugs and cups.

Because of my varying chinaware, of which some is quite delicate, I wanted to catch this in my challenge and I thought the only way is watercolours.  Now I don't use watercolours normally and am rubbish with them, but persevered. Not too happy with the result, so thought again.  Next came to mind was a collage (not so delicate!). Both these medium are not natual to me, so bear with me on this challenge. 

Seeing as this group is about challenge and trying something new, I have shown both of my efforts, the collage is first.  Mr T, feel free to use whichever one fits best within your great montages.

I enjoyed the theme of tea, so may well persue this further.

Creative Tuesdays - Ideal Coffee Break

Creative Tuesdays challenge this week is Ideal Coffee Break, well being quintessentially British, for me it had to be afternoon tea.  It was pointed out to me a few years ago that whenever time permits, I also stop for a cup of tea at around 4.00pm.  I hadn't realised this trait until I was told about it!

It would be such a treat to have afternoon tea at the Ritz, so my entry this time had to be afternoon tea and cakes.
