Hi Everybody!
Today I am sharing a tag meant for Simon Monday Challenge,
Star light star bright. The background is some icy,
silver card I found in my stash. I tore small pieces of
blue, painted paper and doilies any layered them
to make the foreground. I sewed it all together.
The trees were made with a hero arts die and the deer
with a Martha Stewart punch. The metallic stars
are from my stash.
I used star-dust stickles to add some sparkle:
And now for the last photos from the Aquazoo:
I loved watching these creatures of the deep:
The lobster has a beautiful colour:
The octopus was really cool:
I was standing looking into this aquarium, and couldn't see
anything. Then the crocodile swam over and started
looking at me - I'm very glad there was glass between us:
More beautiful fossils:
Have a great day take care,
and thanks a lot for coming by
Your creatures of the deep are so nice to view but your project is an absolute stunner...has my card arrived?

Sorry, not yet, I will let you know when it comes!
DeleteHi Val, what a coincidence, a tag that looks just like this one arrived in my letter-box a few minutes back! Thanks a lot, the kids were thrilled, also with the accompanying sweeties! Great pictures from the aquazoo, too, that crocodile looks like it's hungry just looking at you! Have a nice day, hugs, Sarah
ReplyDeleteYour tag is absolutely fabulous and I love the photos from the Aquazoo.
ReplyDeletexxx Hazel.
Just so BEAUTIFUL! Unique tag and photography!
ReplyDeleteI love what you did with the doily on your tag Valerie. Using it for snow and the sun is really clever! It's a gorgeous wintery tag-it looks cold and like December. And i think octopi are really fascinating. Yours look like he was moving around. When I've seen them they are usually tucked away in a corner hiding. I read a book about them once which explained how smart they were, but they don't live very long-like only 2-3 years. I think the book was called the soul of the octopus.Thanks for the other views from the aquazoo. Hugs-Erika
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful wintery scene. And so creative! I love that icy looking paper and the details from the doilies and trees.
ReplyDeleteThe sea creatures are so very colorful. Thank you for sharing them with us.

Your tag is just beautiful Valerie!! I love how you used the doilies- great idea for the snow!!Gorgeous!!
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing these photos- yes, that blue lobster is quite bluetiful as well as interesting= never seen such a thing!
Watch out for hungry crocs- they see all with those eyes! Bwaaa!
Have a great day my friend!

The tag is gorgeous! It would make a beautiful Christmas card. Blue lobsters are rare. Whenever a lobsterman catches one, it ends up on the news before its put back in the water. I've never seen a blue turtle. Pretty cool. Maybe the crocodile was just saying, I'm ready for my close-up. (-; Have a Happy Day!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the information about the blue lobster.
DeleteI LOVE that tag. It's a wonderful tag, and I love the trees. I couldn't believe the deer were from a punch.
ReplyDeleteFantastic photos, especially the penguin. That alligator was pretty spooky, but I was glad it was behind glass, too. Truly incredible photos, again.
Its a wonderful winter scene on your tag Valerie, the deer look fantastic.
ReplyDeleteAwesome photos again. I really likes seeing those fossils, what stories they would have to tell us.

800,000 people may live in Düsseldorf, but I don't know too many who read my blog and love birds (grin).
ReplyDeleteNow that's a surprise! I don't know many of the 800000 either!
DeleteWhat a beautiful starry night tag! The whole winter scene is gorgeous and I love that shade of blue and how you used the doily - amazing 😁. Such great photos too! Happy Thursday! J 😊
ReplyDeleteA lovely little scene Valerie! Love the aqua zoo pics - I have just bought a lobster coloured coat! Lol! Hugs,Chrisx

The crocodile almost looks like he is smiling! LOL!
ReplyDeleteHe was smiling, he'd seen me, and was probably thinking about dinner!
