Anything goes at Tag Tuesday

Hi Everybody!

Sandie has chosen a great theme at Tag Tuesday- anything goes. The challenge runs for another week so you have plenty of time to link to us. Sandie is also doing the admin and planning, for which I am very grateful.  My recovery after the operrations in October is too slow for my liking, but it is as it is!The medication that I have to take makes me tired and fuzzy, and I will be happy when I don't need to take it anymore.

I chose to make a tag to support the people of Ukraine, who are suffering so badly, many have no water, no homes, no electricity - everything has been destroyed in these vicious attacks.




And some more of my sunflower art:



This photo was not from me


These were supposed to be sunflowers, too, not so good, but I tried!




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

  1. I love all your sunflowers Valerie. I know, I feel so bad for those people in Ukraine. Why must some leaders be so greedy? But your sunflowers are all so beautifully done. Hugs-Erika

    1. Hi Sarah those people are suffering and dying and here in Germy people are just moaning because the prices are going up. I know it's hard, but the war there is much harder!

  4. They are wonderful sunflowers, Valerie. They are your sunflowers. The situation in Ukraine continues to distress us all, and there seems to be no end in sight. Putin is able to continue to inflict this misery on those embattled people in the sure knowledge that there will be no reprisals on his own territory. The only solution, it seems, rests in the hands of the Russian generals and others in high places, who need to remove Putin, preferably permanently. Even better would be to turn him over to the International Court of Justice in The Hague. The world is often a sad place. Hugs and kisses - David

    1. Putin gets away with destroying a neighbouring land and nobody stops him. He is a war criminal and needs to be treated that way! Sad indeed! Big hugs!

  14. Sunflowers are a symbol of summer. All of the sun flower images are beautiful. Your sunflowers capture the essence of the flower. Bright and full of sunshine. Nicely done.
    I tried growing them but the squirrels liked them too. Never managed to get the seed harvest for the birds. The squirrels took the seed heads and ate all of the seeds. Oh well. They were enjoyed.

    Love, Hugs and Blessings

  21. all of your remembrances for ukraine are beautiful and meaningful. hoping for peace and safety soon. xo

  22. So glad I looked back and saw this incredible tag you have given us honoring Ukraine. What a beauty. I also LOVE the sunflowers you drew and the other ones you gave us.

    I just learned this morning that Putin isn't attending the G7 climate conference, but sending Laslov instead. Biden doesn't plan to meet with him, but plans to meet with Xi of China on more than just climate change.

    Feel better soon, dear. I hope you can rid yourself of that medication soon.
