Clouds and sunshine

Hi Everybody!
Hope your week is going well.

Today I have a hybrid piece, using a photo taken last week as the 
background. The face is one of my drawings, placed into
my digital programme. I added some flowers, embellies and a feather 
from Mischief Circus.
I am linking to Rosie's 'Circles' challenge at 



This little tag was made with leftover scraps which were flying about
on my table. I sewed them together and added the gull's feather
and the shells. I am linking to Tag Tuesday,  Joan's theme
of 'the beach':

Morning clouds:



Here in our little town there was a lot going on last week
for various festivals:










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

  3. I was so impressed with your AJJ entry. It is fabulous. And the beach tag is fabulous. I've got to think of something that is beachy soon, so I can enter before it's too late.

    LOVE the photos of all the banners/buntings. They certainly make the town seem festive. Will they remain in place for the Tour de France? I bet you are excited to see that! Hope your day is lovely, dear friend.

  4. Lovely to see your town in festival look, bunting always reminds me of seaside holidays. Beautiful page for our journal, love the combination of face and photo. And the beachy tag is fab, love hoe you made it. Hugs, Sarah

  5. Fantastic artwork on the page you made Valerie. Love the way you used your photograph as a starting point.

    Beautiful tag with the colours and images of the seaside.

    The photographs are great as always and how strange that you have some with a brass band. When we went to Scarborough on Monday they are staging a big brass band competition and the bands are practicing all over the place. A few of the bands were from Germany. They looked so smart and had lots of winners medals.

    Have a good day--hope it isn't the same rain as here and more is forecast.

    Love Chrissie xx

    1. The bands here mostly play quite well when they are sober - in the course of festivals and after several beers they don't always hit the right tones!

  16. Sweet sea tag. It's all about the beach in the next couple towns over and the summer holidays have begun. I try and avoid it all for the traffic. I do like a beach walk in the evening though and sometimes we pop over. Otherwise it's early morning and the river. xox
