I think this is so sad as I’ve been a participant on and off for the last 3 years or so. But, everything comes to an end and new challenge blogs emerge and life goes on as people get busier, etc. In honour of their closure, I wrote haikus and created this page:
“We flocked to their blog
and we created with joy:
every week was new.
Their challenge awoke
sparks of creativity
In all who took part… “
So farewell to WS and I wish you all joy and peace and creativity…
I am adding this to Theme Thursday’s “Wings” theme, which inspired the page originally! The stamps are a combination of handcarved and commercial. 🙂

/ July 9, 2011I love your angel, or whatever he is, standing there with his arms outstretched in what looks like they could be prisoner stripes, and a pair of athletic shoes! LOVE the look on his face! He stares right at you, with a Mona Lisa-esque smile on his face. LOVE!
That made me happy!
But now I’m sad…I had no idea about the ending of WS. I’ve loved that group since the early days. I love Belinda, and wish upon wish that I’d participated more often over the last couple of years. WS pretty much started the world of blog challenges. So sad. Even though I’m probably too late to post to the group, I’m still going to make a tribute piece. We met at WS, didn’t we? Wow Rosie, how time flies! XOXO
Rosemary Rowe
/ July 9, 2011Thanks hun! Yes, I think we did! Of course you should make a tribute piece for WS… Gonna pop over and say fare-thee-well to Belinda later.
By the way, I also met Patty (Magpie’s Nest) and Marit via WS, so how’s that for coincidence?
Marit
/ July 9, 2011Such a sweet and wonderful ‘tribute’ to WS.. I didn’t play much but it was always good for a visit on Wednesday, and get inspired by the artwork that was shown by the participants. I love the piece you created and the haiku you written to honour them. Fabulous!
