In the garden

Hi Everybody!

Time is flying, it's the middle of the week already.

I have more tags to share today. The first mixed media tag

is for Go Tag Thursday, in the garden. I used a paper

napkin on an 8" manila tag. I added Stickles and tiny gemstones 

to the feathers, and rubbed some iridescent wax over the top half

to make Mr Peacock shine. I stitched the tag to a 

green backing, and added a flower and some leaves:

For Wilma's cake theme at Tag Tuesday I have a digital

tag today - a nice cup of coffee and some strawberry cream

cake, yummy! Hope to see YOU joining us with cake there!

   

Last Friday I visited the botanical garden with Gunter. It is part of

the Heinrich-Heine-University. This is the huge,  glass-domed

tropical house. Strangely enough, as it was so hot outside, it felt

pleasantly cool inside! The garden round about the dome is filled with 

tropical plants, including palm trees - my first opportunity to

be under palms this year. The garden has sections for flowers,

veggies, medicinal plants and herb, rare flowers and trees as

well as those 'normal' to our habitat:

More photos to follow!

Have a great day, take care,

and thanks a lot for coming by!
