Hi Everybody!
Today we are starting a new challenge at TIOT and our theme is
😊😊Going Round in Circles😊😊
Please have a look at our blog and see the lovely pieces my teamies have made. As always, you have 2 weeks to join us, and projects of all formats are welcome. Hope to see YOU there.
I made a vintage page so that I can also link to Wendy's challenge at AJJ. The green disk on the right is one of the oldest astronomical artifacts ever found, the sky disk of Nebra. You can read about its very interesting history here.
I think the man sitting at the bottom is dreaming about the world and the planets going round and round:
And I have another pair of narrow tags recycled from old birthday cards for my recycling challenge at Tag Tuesday. I made a similar pair with a different colour scheme some weeks back. The are nice to use on presents:
And some photos from our little town. These beautiful houses are in 'Stiftsplatz', the church close:
Along Market Street:
I love these fun lights at a little cafe here, where I had breakfast with a friend a week back:
And the beautiful, rusty sculpture in the castle grounds:
Have a great day, take care,
and thanks a lot for coming by!

DeleteValerie you add so many outstanding objects, images and elements to your work...fab post love the pics. xxx
ReplyDeleteThanks Annie, have a good and safe day!
Delete"Going round in circles" is a theme I could ease right into, Valerie! That simply emulates my normal state some days! I am quite sure, however, that we all have those days from time to time. Even you! This morning I am a little pressed for time, since I have been dawdling and the exalted Miriam is ready to go, so I had better keep my comment short. Until the next time. Hugs and kisses. David
ReplyDeleteNice to hear from you. Just got back from my morning walk. Have a wonderful day, and be good! Hugs to you both!
DeleteOh my gosh Valerie.. I just LOVE your art journal spread (and thanks for the history lesson!). Those circles are amazing, as is your man! LOVE those slimlines, and of course your photos!!!! Have a fabulous week! ((HUGS)) Helen
ReplyDeleteThanks Helen, glad you like it. That sky disk is very fascinating. I wish I could improve my slimline....Have a great week, hugs!
DeleteI love the astronomy take on circles. It is unique and very clever. And perfect for circles too. I love the addition of the balloon. And nice recycle/reuse tag too. Your photos today show a really beautiful area too. The little man on the streetlight is adorable. It looks like a wonderful place to walk. I hope you are having a good day. Hugs-Erika
ReplyDeleteThanks Erika! I had fun putting this one together! Those fun lights belong to a café here, we had breakfast there last week, it's a pretty place to sit at any time of the day! Have a great day, hugs!
DeleteMaybe the gent in your piece is dreaming of a trip to the stars in the balloon. Those funny little men lights are so cute!
ReplyDeleteCould be! I would love to go up in a balloon again. Have a great day!
DeleteWell done my friend.

DeleteA fabulous page, it fits the challenge themes so well and is great inspiration for the new one at TioT's as well as AJJ.
