Sunday This and That

Hi Everybody!

I've just been watching the sun rise up through the

morning mist, and it looks like it will be a

beautiful Sunday, so hope your day will

be good, too.

Yesterday I was awake very early, as always, and had time

for some crafting before I went for my morning walk.

This mixed media tag is meant for  Things with Wings, at

Tag Tuesday, and for Simon Monday Challenge, rainbow.

The background is part of a motherboard I made recently,

using the cardboard backing from a sketch pad, which was gessoed,

painted, sprayed and splashed - fun! I used some

three dimensional flower and insect stickers I

recently discovered in one of my many boxes, and put them

round a vintage image (LaBlanche). I added some lace and a

ribbon hanger, and fixed it all to the painted background.

This tag is for Sandie's Go Tag Thursday Challenge, where

the theme is stamps - either postage ones or rubber ones,

so I used both. The background image is from Gecko Galz

and has been mounted onto a piece of mirri-card. I added

a postage stamp, and then used some mail-art stamps. I sewed it 

onto a piece of peeled cardboard which was gessoed and then 

dipped in Utee EP.

These photos were taken on my walk to the Rhine

yesterday:

I love the fresh green of the pollard willows on the meadows:

I always enjoy walking through these tall trees:

The avenue of chestnut trees leads to the Ferry:

This tree at the 'Diakonie' is the loveliest one of all:

In the afternoon I met up with friends in the Altstadt (old town)

but more about that another time.

Have a great day, take care,

and thanks a lot for coming by!
