Hi Everybody!
Here's wishing us all a happy, healthy and safe June.
Today we are starting a new challenge at Tag Tuesday and our lovely and talented Michele is hosting. Her lovely theme is dance-dancers-dancing, so I'm looking forward to seeing what you create. I have a hybrid tag using a hand-painted background and elements from Serif:
Hope to see lots of you joining in!
And it's also time for Elizabeth's T sTands for Tuesday linky parTy, so here a warm welcome to all of the lovely ladies of the T Gang:
An old painting with some bottles:
And some assorted photos from my walks and balcony:
Have a great day, take care,
and thanks a lot for coming by!
I don't know where to start but gosh love your art and the beautiful photos xx
ReplyDeleteThanks Annie, have a great day!
DeleteGood morning Valerie: Dinosaurs didn't die out. In fact there is one in the White House right now, of the most primitive form too. It survived along with crocodiles and other cold-blooded predatory creatures. Thanks for the updated portrait of the Canada Geese. It is good to see them doing well. Who can believe it is already June? It is an old cliché but nevertheless true that the older one gets the faster the time goes by. Have a relaxing day with good coffee, and a nap on the balcony. Big hugs, David
ReplyDeleteHi David, I stand corrected. That is really one evil dinosaur. The geese are doing well, they were swimming in the Rhine this morning. Yes, we oldies have to see time running by quicker than we can! Been busy up til now, but feel obliged to do as you say and take a nap....
DeleteOOh your tag is Gorgeous Valerie !! Wonderful dancer. I also loove your bottles Art, so nice to see you inside :) Happy T-day !! These blue flowers are amazing! I´ve enjoyed your walks and balcony ´s photos, thanks so much for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI wish you a very nice new week, stay safe and

Caty
Thanks Caty, always good to see you visiting! Have a great day and a safe, new month!
DeleteHi Val, how are you today? Well and fit, I hope! Lovely art with the ballerina, and wonderful photos. And good to see your face in the art. Time is flying, they are gathering the first harvest already. I know you love watching it! Have a great day, take care, hugs, Sarah
ReplyDeleteThanks Sarah! Not really feeling good, but trying to carry on - it can only get better! Take care, have a great, new month!
DeleteGreat tag and love your painting with the bottles. Have a great day. x
ReplyDeleteThanks Anesha! Have a lovely day!
DeleteLovely art with the ballerina and the lady that drinks coffee!
ReplyDeleteI really like the statue with the three children
Have always a good coffee and a great month of June!
Hugs!
Thanks Ella! The three children are sitting on a fountain in Hofgarten, being watched by a crow, and in the basin of the fountain there are frogs spouting water. It's called the fairy tale fountain.
DeleteSuch delicious eye candy. Beautiful tea set. And that bee butt looks so cute poking out from the thistle. Happy T Day!
ReplyDeleteThanks.I love watching bees buzzing about on the flowers. The always seem to love purple ones! Happy T Day to you, too!
DeleteHi Valerie oh I love your hybrid tags they are so pretty,well done my friend on your beautiful work. Loving your pics Valerie you are surrounded by so many beautiful places,Thankyou for sharing them with us xx
ReplyDeleteThanks Sheryl, much appreciated. Have a wonderful day!
DeleteLovely dance tag. The teaplates are so pretty. Beautiful photos
ReplyDeleteThanks Christine. They are pretty but too expensive to buy!
DeleteI just love the fine china in the store window. So pretty.
ReplyDeleteThanks, it's beautiful and caught my eye as I was passing!
DeleteBeautiful ballerina.
ReplyDeleteThanks Regina, have a great, new month!
DeleteValerie I love how you presented the ballerina. I so enjoy your photos. I know it is your place and you see it every day but to me it always looks like so much is there, that it is peaceful and so inviting. Yes, it didn't take long for our kids to be in their 50s.LOL have a wonderful day.
ReplyDeleteThanks Nicole, it is pretty here and I am happy here. I am wondering what happened to the little girl who only wanted to eat Nutella and is now 54! The time just flew!
DeleteBeautiful ballerina. I can hear her wishful thoughts. I also love my coffee...what a gorgeous tea service with the roses on it. What is the name of that striking blue flower? I accidentally deleted your comment from my latest blog entry but luckily had it in email and so I posted it under my name mentioning you,,,you can repost if you want but maybe its OK as is?
ReplyDeleteThanks June! I have no idea, it forms a huge bud and then pops open with a loud pop. The birds planted it on my balcony. Things like that happen to me often, don't worry!
Deleteso adorable blue flowers:)
ReplyDeleteThanks Kathy!
DeleteWonderful art and photos Valerie! Your blue flower could be a Campanula Bellflower, we have them in our front garden, probably planted by the birds too :-)
ReplyDeleteHappy new week,
Alison xx
Thanks for the Info. They are such pretty flowers. Kind birds! Have a great month!
DeleteBeautiful tag Valerie, I love that ballerina! Great photos today- fabulous tea set and gorgeous black swan! Awesome blog header, love that fun coffee mug on the right! Take care and have a wonderful week.
ReplyDeleteHugs, Tammy
Thanks Tammy! Those coffee mugs are really fun, I got them on clearance last year for 1€ each, so a good bargain! Have a great week!
DeleteSo many wonders today. LOL about the dinosaurs. Love the tag, piece and painting. Those blue flowers in the photographs just pop don't they.
ReplyDeleteThanks Sandra. Keep drinking coffee, who wants to be a dinosaur? Have a good week!
DeleteI love your tag Valerie, so pretty, and the dinosaur quote is perfect lol. Take care and have a great week, Sue xx
ReplyDeleteThanks Sue! You have a good week and a good and healthy new month!
DeleteWhat an incredible ballerina tag. It was a great tag for the theme, Valerie. I like all the details, too.
ReplyDeleteYour walks are always fun. First, was that wheat in the field? It looked like some kind of grass, maybe. And that blue flower is gorgeous. My birds leave me purple poop, probably from the mulberry tree, but no flower seeds (grin).
Was that a baby black swan I saw in the photo? I hope the black swan family is doing better than they fared last year.
Finally, I am in love with the plethora of coffee related images you shared this week, from the journal tag to actual mugs of coffee. Enjoyed seeing the tea pot and the lovely tea set, too. Thanks for sharing your ballerina tag, your walks along the Rhine, and your coffee with us for T this Tuesday. It's great I'll never be a dinosaur.
Thanks E!. The bales are grass, the meadows are mowed 2-3 times a year and it's baled for the animals. The black swans are all doing well, three pairs of black swans have had young up to now, and lots from the white swans, too. I go and look 2-3 times a week, it's a fun place to be! Have a great month!
DeleteHi Val, I just love your photos-they all could be in magazines for sure.
ReplyDeleteLoved the coffee memes, and gorgeous art-Have a great new week-hugs Kathy and Happy T
Thanks Kathy. You have a great week and a wonderful June, happy T Day!

ReplyDeleteBin ne blinde Kuh! ;-)
War verwirrend mit demsleben Artikel.
"Oh boy..." Wir haben einen Tanz gelernt, 2009. Eine Freundin hat geheiratet und später mein Bruder, da mussten wir ja tanzen.
4 linke Füße...
Schöne Arbeit! Plural, mal wieder :-)
Jetzt schon wieder Heu?
Nachher mal gucken, ob der Botanische Garten eröffnet hat, dir einen schönen Tag und GlG, Iris
Ja, Blinde Kuh kenne ich. Elizabth hat's etwas verwirrend gemacht mit 2 Posts mit dem gleichen Titel! Ich hab sogar mehr als 4 linke Füße. Der Botanische Garten hier ist schon auf. Dir einen schönen tag!

Thanks so much Yvonne, have a wonderful day!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely tea service, so pretty! That blue flower is gorgeous! Reading through comments hoping to find out what kind of plant it is, and I see it was a gift from generous birds. They'll never tell ;) It's always good to see a bee, and the public statuary always adds so much to a community. You always have a good variety of sights to see on your walks :) Happy T Tuesday!
ReplyDeleteThanks. I'll try to Look Up the name of that flowers! Happy T day!
