Winter blues - new challenge at TIOT

 Hi Everybody!

Today we are staring a new challenge at TIOT and our them is winter blues.We have had a real wintry weekend so this theme is very fitting just now. Please pop over to the TIOT blog and see the beautiful pieces my teamies made. Projects of all formats are welcome, 'real' or digital or hybrid, and you have 2 weeks to link to us.

I made a wintry tag:



I am also linking to Tag Tuesday, Michele's faery garden challenge

I have a selection of photos, mostly taken in spring, a time many of us are looking forward to:





















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

    Fabulous wintry tag! It's a lovely scene with the pretty clouds and I love the tree with the ice skates hanging from the branches 😀. The springtime photos give us all something to look forward to too! Wishing you a wonderful week! Hugs, Jo x

    I have searched and I have searched, Valerie, but I don't see a bird anywhere, not even a stray feather on the snow, not an unused nest of a Balconia rarity, not a hint of avian anything! How can this be? No doubt you will immediately wish to fix this egregious omission and immediately set about modifying your wintry tag. I am happy to know that you have snow all about you and will look forward to your pictures of these winter scenes - perhaps even with a bird or three! Vielen hugs from across the ocean. David

      Hi David. The birds are there, of course, you just can't see them because they're sitting snug in the ice skates. Here in the clinic we have a little robin who always hops into the kitchen porch for some crumbs, we call him Kurt! I will try to paint some birds for you soon! Have a great day, take care, hugs to you both!

    I love that tag. The little winter fairy really works for this TIOT challenge and of course Tag Tuesday too. I am behind tag making this year so far!( Frown face for me.) And thank you for the spring photos. We have been having too much grey skies this January. Hope all is well. Hugs-Erika

    Love your tag Val. Fascinated by the winter scene. I had to enlarge it to take in the detail of course. Just wonderful. I am with you on waiting for spring. I am mindful of the Covid in this area. It is not good. I pray you are getting better. Take care and stay safe.

    Hugs and Blessings,
    Jim

    What a beautiful wintry tag, Valerie. I really like the little mouse and the skates hanging on the tree.

    You certainly made me wish for spring with your incredible photos of green and no snow.
