What a lovely fun painting Carole. I love the golden clock by the little cup cakes.<br />How long before you ate them? The cup got a delightful pattern with a so well written note near it ...<br />Great work!

Thank you very much, I really appreciate your encouraging comments, I don't suppose you youngsters will have heard of the song, 'when the Clock Strikes Three Everything Stops for Tea'! 😄😄

I really like this quirky painting Carole and I am old enough to remember the song! The use of doilies as a stencil and collage elements is very effective.

Of course I'm too young to remember the song! [ liar, liar lol] Love this Carole, really pretty and jolly!!

This is absolutely delightful, Carole! It evokes such a lovely ambience of warmth and charm. Love the composition and the palette too!

Acrylic and collage. A bit of fun, sorry about perspective (or lack of). The cup is a favourite of mine bought from a charity shop.
