Step-Out of the Month

I believe this challenge has reached its end. I got no December email. A comment on their FB webpage indicated that a new signup received the message that November was the last sootm challenge.

So here we go...

Time to Kill

If you are a frequent visitor to my pages you already know that the solutions to these Brainteasers are at the bottom of this page, sort of 'hidden' in tiny small font size just in case you ended there before you had a chance to figure out the images below.

Animal Happy Day

Every time I see these videos, and there are tons of those, I imagine if I was an animal, gotten insured and nobody is taking care of me. As an animal I am not able to help myself and I don't understand what happened to me and why I am suffering so much. Then everything changes because there ARE good careing people in this world. 

Animal Aid Unlimited is one of my animal rescue centers I support.

Actually AAU in India is not just rescuing animals of all sorts including wild, but going around cooperating and educating the community. Now they are getting calls from kids asking for their assistance when they see animals trapped, injured, neglected or otherwise in need of their help. Well done, AAU.

Aaaand....if you happen to visit India any time soon or in the future, why not paying AAU a visit and say hi to Hobnob.  

I did it! all my 'todo' challenge tiles for 2024 are done.

I finished this blog in the last few hours left of 2024. 

Welcome 2025

May you all have a splendid New Year

Quiz solutions

1 – Fishing hook

2 – Farm animal/Animal farm

INKtober 2024

31 Days of INKktober 2024 following Stephanie Jennifer's official listing one day at a time.

I used the odd tile sixe of 8x9cm because they are leftover paper pieces from my 9x9cm cuttings.

I also did something I haven't done till this collection: I watercolor painted the background AFTER I drew the pattern. I learnt that it does't work so well when paining over black spaces.

Time to Kill...

Here we go again, Brainteasers. Either I suffer from a sever case of braincell loss or something was preventing me from 'reading 4 and 5', of which 5 is really clever.

Solutions - as always - right at the end of this post in the smallest font size so you don't accidentally scroll all the way down and read the solutions without having had a proper go at the quiz. 

Animal Happy Day

... and sometimes they choose you.

Brain teaser solutions:

7 – Vegetables

8 – Afternoon tea

9 – Camping overnight

10 – Time to go

11 – Long time no see

12 – Polite

This post should have been published a long time ago, instead I spent all my free time tangling. Inktober 2024 is done and I post it in the next day or two and a new post with 6 weeks of Monotangle Mondays is already in the pipe, too. It is weird: I love filling a post with tiles, but deciding when to publish the post is like a slightly too high hurdle to jump at times. Thus the delay.

Thanks for visiting and enjoy your Thanksgiving with your family.
