Hi Everybody!
Hope you are having a great week. Today is the last day of Elizabeth's food/drink or collage fodder challenge at AJJ. Thanks for hosting, Elizabeth! I have made a digital collage. I have combined 2 different pages, one over the other with an added frame and some other bits and bobs. Tomorrow we will be starting a new challenge, so don't forget to check the new theme and our lovely new host tomorrow:
Potato cakes and Christmas. I'm in!
ReplyDeleteOf course! You would have fun here!
DeleteI enjoy visiting Christmas markets at this time of year.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing the photographs.
All the best Jan
Yes, they are fun!
DeleteI love how you overlapped those 2 pieces. Together they make a great piece. And Christmas markets look so cool. We don't have them here. I haven't had potato pancakes (as we call them) with apples in so long. Boy those look yummy! Thanks for sharing. And happy last day of November. hugs-Erika
ReplyDeleteThanks Erik. I love those pancakes, we make them for Chanukkah! Yum!
DeleteDramatic collage and lovely to see the markets
ReplyDeleteThanks Christine!
DeleteLovely page you have created vj. The Christmas market looks colorful and alive!
ReplyDeleteIt's a fun place for a drink and a snack in winter!
DeleteLovely memories today, I remember being there with you 2 years back! Hugs from us all, Sarah
ReplyDeleteWas that 2 years ago? I thought it was longer. We had fun and tried nearly everthing! Hugs!
DeleteEin fabelhaftes und kreative Collage!
ReplyDeleteDer Weihnachtsmarkt ist so schön bei dir, danke für das zeigen!
Lieben Gruss Elke
Thanks Elke, the market here is very small, but always pretty! Hugs!
DeleteHi Valerie, I called in to have a catch up and a closer look at your TioT's DT page and I couldn't find it. Anyway I enjoyed my visit and reading your posts.
ReplyDeleteI hope all is well with you, I have up and down days and the cold, dull winter days don't help very much.
Be safe Yvonne xx
I'm so sorry I forgot to post it!
DeleteYour collage looks terrific, Valerie. Gives a whole new meaning to the term, "two-faced"!
ReplyDeleteThe Christmas market looks very attractive and I am sure is well patronized and enjoyed by many. Potato cakes and apple sauce - count me in! Hugs and kisses - David
Two faced is good! And potato cakes and apple 🍎🍏 sauce are wonderful!
DeleteThese Christmas markets look like such fun!
ReplyDeleteThanks, they are fun!
DeletePięknie i świątecznie u Ciebie. Pozdrawiam serdecznie.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much!
DeleteWhat a fabulous piece, your collage is amazing! I love a Christmas market (thoush I'm not sure about potato cakes with apple sauce lol) I hope you are feeling better today. Take care and look after yourself, Sue xx
ReplyDeleteThanks Sue, you don't know what your missing! Hugs!
ReplyDeleteYour collaged face is absolutely brilliant! Looking forward to the Christmas Market in Paris this weekend. Potato cakes and apple sauce sounds amazing- I wonder what we'll find to eat? I hope you are feeling a little better today, hugs, Chrisx
ReplyDeleteThanks Chris, have fun in France! Potatoes cakes and Apple sauce is brilliant! Hugs,Valerie
DeleteYou brought back such happy memories with the Christmas market photos. We travelled to lots and each had a different thing about it that we liked. The soup in Berlin is an everlasting memory, the glasses I brought four of home in another and my favourite because it was my first to experience was Dusseldorf. I used to love those potato cakes. They would ask did I want apple and I'd say "No, salt" and the reply would be "ah English". I loved standing under a shelter to one side of one of the markets where I would eat my bratwurst and drink my "gluhwein mit rhum". Oh how I wish I could travel now.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, now to your journal page. Love the large central face with the two silhouettes standing to attention at the sides. What a lovely idea to combine two pictures into the one. The other figure and the raven at the base all add to it and I love the warmth of the colours you chose.
I hope you are feeling better and stronger each day Valerie.
Take care
Hugs, Neet xx
Hi Neet, glad you enjoyed the Christmas market! It's only a small one here, but every district has their own, as well as the huge one in the Altstadt. Wen I first came here I didn't want apple sauce either, but you must try it, it's just wonderful! Glad you like the hybrid collage, too, it's fun taking old pieces and turning them into something new! Have a great day, take care, hugs!
DeleteI was in awe of these two images you combined. It was like a transparency, only digital. I am always impressed with your digital art. I love how the smaller faces go so well with the large one and the crow/raven adds that touch of mystery to the entry, Thanks for this final entry you have given us at Art Journal Journey using Bleubeard's and my themes.
ReplyDeleteSomeday I hope to visit a Christmas market. The sights, sounds, and scents might even be overwhelming. I LOVED, LOVED, LOVED the beautiful photos you shared. Such beauty and happiness after not having a Christmas Market for a couple of years.
Please feel better really soon, dear.
BTW, I found your original comment from yesterday in my spam folder and published it.
DeleteThanks Elizabeth, gad you found my comment and saved it from the bin! And I'm glad you enjoyed the Christmas market, it's always fun to visit there, and especially to eat potato cakes!
DeletePiękna praca jak zawsze . Jarmarki Bożonarodzeniowe u nas też powoli się zaczynają. Lubię czas Adwentu bo to czas radosnych przygotowań. Miłego weekendu😊🎄
ReplyDeleteThanks Lucyna. Happy Advent to you and your family!
DeleteI love a Christmas market but sadly the one here in Lincoln just gets so busy that we can't get near anything. Thanks for showing us round yours. Hugs, Angela xXx
ReplyDeleteSorry about that. In my time in Lincoln there was no Christmas market! Long,long ago!
DeleteOh, the market! I am so longing to go to one, sometime in my life. Enchanting.
ReplyDeleteWhat a compelling face, Valerie! And an important message. I find it really hard to quiet my mind. I enjoyed seeing your Christmas market, but, boy it looks cold outside! It's really cold here tonight with a strong, bitter wind. I hope you're warm inside and enjoying the weekend!
