Hi Everybody!
Today I have 2 more tags for our challenge at Tag Tuesday - mail, postmarks and postage stamps. The background here is one of my collected envelopes. The tag is a printed version of a journal page I made some years back using Mr UM with some of the president stamps on a stamped, stenciled and collage background. The quote is from Gracie Allen. A rather scary thought when I think of who might be in a new series of stamps....
The second tag is a mixed media collage tag on corrugated and stitched card. The face has been stamped onto a used coffee pod - I made a huge amount of these some time back and now have them at my disposal. I am also linking to
And this is a repeat of an old mixed media journal page, which I digitally chopped up and used to make my header. It was made using a copy of a vintage letter placed on an A3 painted, stenciled and stamped page:
I wonder if herons get cold feet?
Digitally changed into a pencil sketch:
Have a great day, take care,
and thanks a lot for coming by!
Lovely art pieces, so colourful.
ReplyDeleteI had to laugh at your question "I wonder if herons get cold feet?"
Your photographs of the heron are great and I love the Digitally changed image into a pencil sketch … fabulous.
Happy mid-week wishes.
All the best Jan
The art is awesome as always...love the photos.xx
ReplyDeleteIf our present president makes it onto a postage stamp I will know that our country has truly become a dictatorship. Yes, scary is the right word. And fabulous art today. I think this theme really inspires you. :) Hugs-Erika
ReplyDeleteGood morning dear Valerie!
ReplyDeleteLove your mixed media tags and your journal page!
Your artwork is always admirable!Great captures of the beautiful Heron bird and the sunrise!
Thank you for sharing! Have a fabulous day! Hugs!
Dimi...
Thanks so much dear Dimi!
DeleteGood morning Val! I was thinking you must have got up in the middle of the night to post, and then I remembered you can schedule posts....LOVE all of the pieces today, and yes, the thought of that person with the bad haircut is definitely scary! Have a great day, look after yourself! Hugs, Sarah

Hi Valerie oh those tags are fabulous and your pages are superb,you are very clever my friend,well done xx
ReplyDeleteBeautiful tags and page. The digital pencil sketch is lovely. Let's pray he never gets a stamp
ReplyDeleteI'll say amen to that!
Delete'Today's president is tomorrow's postage stamp.' Heh.
ReplyDeleteA fabulous selection of art, and I love the heron photos Valerie! xx
ReplyDelete"Presidents" is a scary subject right now. There are some postage stamps I just won't be able to use ;) I don't use coffee pods, but I love hearing about people finding such attractive uses for them. I hope herons don't get cold feet, brrrrr! Their feet stay wet too much for that to work lol I always enjoy your scenic photos. So peaceful :)
ReplyDeleteThis is the perfect post! I love the postcard collage card and the beautiful sunset and birds look much like Miami! We have some gorgeous white Egrets that stand on branches in/near the water and this is so serene and peaceful.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your visit and comment to welcome my new granddaughter, ALice! You are such a sweet friend!
Thanks so much!
DeleteBeautiful work. I like the statement that today's president becomes tomorrow's postage stamp. Poor birds with feet in cold water for much of the day!
ReplyDeleteIts a fantastic art page and both of your tags look awesome. It is a very good quote on the first one but I have to say the second mixed media tag is my favourite today.
ReplyDeleteGreat photos as well, we are getting snow soon it will be a change to the constant grey.

I LOVE your beautiful UMen turned presidents. Let's hope the current U.S. president NEVER gets anything other than impeached.
ReplyDeleteI love how you changed the heron into a pencil sketch digitally. It gives me all kinds of ideas! Thanks for the awesome inspiration.
I'll say amen to that!
DeleteAmazing tags Valerie with lots of ideas to inspire all. Beautiful page as well.
ReplyDeleteWhat great photographs with your special pictures of birds and skies.
Have a great day
Love Chrissie xx
Wow! Your tags are wonderful; so much detail and great colour choices.
ReplyDeleteI am always in love with your beautiful photos, Valerie. Herons are gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteAnd both your tags are fantastic, but I especially LLLLLLOVE the second one, probably because I love stitching! Hugs, my friend.
Fabulous tags! I love how you have used the postage stamps and stamped images to create your people - amazing 😁. The heron pencil drawing looks wonderful too and I'll never tire of your beautiful coloured skies and magical birds sat in the trees 😁. Enjoy the rest of your week and Happy Weekend! J 😊 x
ReplyDeleteThanks. The skies and birds are my constant delight.
DeleteYou did a great job of getting the stamp heads on Mr. Umbrella Man.
ReplyDeleteHope your day is filled with energy and sunshine.
Hugs
Hi Valerie, I love what you have done with the postage stamps - so creative. Yes I wonder too - do herons (or any birds) feel the cold? Here is Australia, I am sure they feel the heat - often seen splashing around in a large bird bath in our garden.
ReplyDeleteI love your new banner and your digital playing with the heron. But I hope our current president is NEVER a postage stamp!
ReplyDeleteDon't we all....
DeleteThe tags and the sunset pictures blow me away. . .I love them. Blessings, Janet
ReplyDeleteSunrise and sunset are my fave times each day!

ReplyDeleteI love your work, it's always fun to see what you create.
Your stamp theme tag is fun! How clever to re-use the coffee pod :D) and your stitching embellishments are delightful.
The digital header is lovely... that's a good way to make one as you've shown.
Thanks for your photos, they're so uplifting xx
I love all of your pieces Valerie, but the thought of Trump on a postage stamp is really scary! You new header is fab, and I love how you've changed a photo into a pencil drawing - so clever xx
ReplyDeleteYou've done such a great job with all your art pieces! The President one, made me laugh! LOL! I love your new header! Gorgeous pictures! I wonder if herons get cold feet too?? Big Hugs!
