Hi Everybody!
Hope you enjoyed your weekend.
This evening we will be starting a new challenge at Tag Tuesday and this time I am hosting with the theme of Steampunk, so hope to see lots of you joining in. Thanks to Michele who hosted the last challenge and to all who joined in. As always, tags of all formats are welcome, and you have 2 weeks to join us. I used a die cut tag and elements from Serif, Gecko Galz and LaBlanche:
Today is also Elizabeth's T sTands for Tuesday link party, where we share a drink with all the nice ladies of the T Gang. My drink is, as always, coffee. I didn't get round to visiting you all last week, I was just too ill, sorry. This week will be back to normal!
And some funnies/thinkies:
African pigmy goats:
And a few pics taken on this day 2012:
Have a great day, take care,
and thanks a lot for coming by!
and thanks a lot for coming by!
Happy early T day Valerie. Glad to hear you are still feeling better. Nice coffee cups too. And steampunk is a fun new challenge, and your tag is a great example for this theme. The zipper along the bottom is a great border, and it looks very very cool. I hope you had a nice weekend, and I'm keeping my fingers crossed you keep feeling better. Hugs-Erika
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Erika, have a great week!
DeleteSo glad you are better this week Valerie. Lovely art, photos and thinkies. Love the 2012 crocuses peeking out, how time flies. The hard of hearing meme is hilarious.
ReplyDeleteThanks Christine, Take Care!
DeleteI really like blue and pink cup.
ReplyDeleteCoffee is on and stay safe
Thanks, nice colour Combo!
DeleteSo sorry that you were ill but good to know that you are back to normal now. I like the art pieces. The African pigmy goats are so cute. Have a great new week.
ReplyDeleteThanks Nancy, have a great week!
DeleteHi Val, good morning! Hope your weekend was good. Love the Tag and funnies today. Here everything and everyone are find. Have a great week, hugs, Sarah
ReplyDeleteThanks Sarah, hugs to all!
DeleteSerif, Gecko, Galz and LaBlanche! That sounds like the name of a high-priced and overtly aggressive legal firm, Valerie! Can you even imagine receiving a phone call from Serif, Gecko, Galz and LaBlanche? You'd be trembling in your boots, especially if Galz was turned loose on you. Gecko might not be quite so bad. But for you they represent nothing but components of the divine expression of your creative flair. I am glad to see you back in the saddle, raring to go as you host this week's activities. Even a few days without you created a chasm in our week. Coffee and wine are fine drinks of course. I will match you cup for cup with the coffee and since I know that you are forbidden to touch even a drop of alcohol I promise to have an extra glass of wine for you. It's the least I can do! Take good care of yourself. Hugs and kisses, David.
ReplyDeleteYes, those named day nothing to the mere mortals of this world, only the initiates recognise them! It's good to be back again but I still need to take it easy. Drink Lots of wine for me and enjoy it. Big hugs, Valerie
DeleteYes those names mean nothing.....
DeleteSpell Checker is hyper active today!
Good morning, your art is always so amazing, loved your photos and memes too Glad you are feeling better-but don't over do-hugs Happy T and new week Kathy
ReplyDeleteThanks Kathy. Have a great day!
DeleteI'm glad you're feeling better. I want pygmy goats!!! :) Happy T Day!
ReplyDeleteAren't they gorgeous!
DeleteStunning art Valerie. I really like the funnies too. However, I want one of those pigmy goats. How much joy would they bring.
ReplyDeleteThanks Nicole, those goats are really cute!
Deletepretty tag and so glad you're feeling better. I love the cat cup and so early for crocus. I wish we were seeing them now
ReplyDeleteThanks CJ, have a great week!
DeleteThat joke about the deaf elderly wife was so hilarious that I read it to David. It made my day!!! LOL.
ReplyDeleteYes, I loved it, too!
DeleteLovely art and photographs, especially the pigmy goats.
ReplyDeleteThe hard of hearing meme had me smiling :)
May the week ahead be a good one for you.
Take care.
All the best Jan
Thanks Jan, have a great week!
DeleteThank you for sharing joy every time you post. Blessings my friend.
ReplyDeleteThanks Regine, take care!
DeleteLoving your steampunk tag! Such a fun theme.
ReplyDeleteYour pictures from last year are lovely and I really enjoyed todays funnies. The password/phone number meme struck home with me!
Happy Tea Day,
Kate
Thanks Kate! I still know the first telephone number from my childhood, but passwords are another matter indeed!
DeleteI'm always a bit curious how the idea of steampunk will be interpreted. So many possibilities. I hope your health continues to improve.
ReplyDeletebest... mae at maefood.blogspot.com
Thanks Mae, steampunk is always fun and very varied! Have a great week!
DeleteSo sorry to hear you have been so ill again. May each moment be a step toward good health again my friend! Will try and get a tag in next week. Super steampunk tag art! Steampunk is not my thing and so it makes for a great challenge for me;)Loved seeing the photos and funnies- oh def. the coffee and wine one is for me:):) Happy T day!
ReplyDeleteThanks Linda. Coffee and wine are both wonderful drinks! Have a good week!
DeleteI am glad you are feeling better. That is good news. Your steampunk tag is wonderful. I love that you included that zipper. It's unique, but goes well with the concept of steampunk.
ReplyDeleteThat is a beautiful blue and pink coffee cup and saucer set. I like the cat chasing the mouse, but won't let the boys see it, in case they decide to chase the stuffed mice that are all over the dining room floor.
I thought your funnies were very appropriate, especially the one about the password. And I loved seeing those snow covered flowers from 2012. Really lovely look back at days gone by. Thanks for sharing your art, funnies, photos, and coffee with us for T this Tuesday, dear Valerie. Just thrilled you are feeling better, dear.
Flowers peeking through the snow are always beautiful, and for me a sign of hope! It would be bad if the boys chased your stuffed mice!
DeleteI'm sorry that you were so ill and am glad that you are feeling better. I wasn't around last week, so I didn't notice. - I'm usually not a big fan of Steampunk, but I do like your tag. Is that a real zipper?
ReplyDeleteThanks Carola. The Zipper is a photo of a real one, digitally added. Have a great week!
DeleteI am so very sorry that you have been so ill and I hope by now you are feeling much more like your normal self. I do love the coffee cups! And your funnies were exactly that -- funny. Keep on getting better.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jeanie. We need to laugh just now, laughter keeps us positive!
DeleteSo glad you are feeling better, Valerie.
ReplyDeleteStunning art!
Love the funnies.
Happy Tuesday!
Thanks Veronica, much appreciated!
DeleteA most gorgeously designed post, beautiful colours and texture. x
ReplyDeleteThanks Annie! Hugs!
DeleteGood news that you are feeling a nit better Valerie. The tag you created looks fantastic and I loved seeing the photos you shared. Stay safe.
ReplyDeleteYvonne xx
Thanks so much, Yvonne. Have a great week and take good care of yourself!
DeleteI'm so glad you feel able to post again. Onwards and upwards!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great theme: Steampunk. I like it! (although I don't make tags. Perhaps I should...)
Loving the cups. Especially the navy one with the dots.
Your funnies and thinkies are really good. Yes, I'm one of those that remembers my childhood tel number and not the passwords. I have now started to use that number as a password. Sorted!
The one about the hearing is so true too (and funny of course) I actually know someone like that.
Happy T-Day,
keep smiling,
Hugs,
Lisca
Thanks Lisca!. We all need to keep smiling! Good Idea with the Password.
DeleteSuch a beautiful tag and I love that spotty teacup and saucer 😁. Those pigmy goats are adorable too! Happy T Day wishes! Hugs Jo x
ReplyDeleteThanks Jo, the goats look so cute!
DeleteI love your steam punk piece! Your photos are lovely. I had no idea there were goats that small!
ReplyDeleteThanks Debra, its the first time I have seen them, too!
DeleteYou all are making me want to start digital scrapping again!! The joke about the deaf husband reminds me of my husband!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jackie. I love mixing real and digital art, it's such fun! Yes ythat joke is good! Have a great week and a happy T day!
DeleteA great post Valerie! I love your Steampunk tag, and that spotty cup and saucer is fabulous.
ReplyDeleteSo pleased you are feeling better this week.
Hugs,
Alison
