Hats, headgear and more

Hi Everybody!

We had another clear and sunny day, a real Sunday
as the name implies. It's so nice to feel the sun on your face
or back while walking out.

For Tag Tuesday, Michele's 'hats and Headgear' challenge,
I made another tag, also meant for the Allsorts challenge blog,
ladies and girls. I made a very feminine tag, with an
animal print background behind the black, both tags sewn together
with white zig-zag stitch.I used some fussy cut images, a quote 
from Dyelusions and a pair of sparkly shoes. A pink pearl-pin, 
some feathers and some flowers were used as embellishments.
You still have a week to join the challenge,
and Michele is offering a prize from Lunagirl Images:







This card arrived from dear Annie in Australia,
she knows that I adore the house mouse images -
thanks Sweetie, your card is gorgeous, as all of your
work is. If you don't know Annie, hop over and take a look!


The crocuses and other spring blooms are much in evidence everywhere:



Stretching at the Rhine:



The Ship restaurant:


And more crocuses:





The moon last night:




Have a great day, take care,
and thanks a lot for coming by!

  9. Gotta love that tag. She has all her accessories and is ready to go. I really like the way you created this and the beautiful way you decorated the images on the tag.

    Love the flowers. They bring so much joy when I see them, since mine don't seem to bloom.

    Wonderful moon shots. Almost ethereal.

  10. Beautiful spring flowers in today's photos. I love to see crocuses flowering free and not in a pot.
    I love the tag very girly and it has a great quote.

  25. Hi Valerie, another beautiful day today and for once I was nice and warm on my morning walk. I love the sunshine and am very thankful winter is almost done. Your pretty tag puts me in mind of Easter bonnets so just perfect for this time of the year. The card from Annie in Australia is gorgeous I will be popping over to her blog after I leave this comment.
    Your photographs are breathtaking, thank you for sharing them. Hugs Barbara
