Orange at More Mixed Media

Hi Everybody!

Today we are starting a new challenge at More Mixed Media. As always, our challenges are anything goes, and the optional colour is orange, a great choice with autumn and Halloween! You have 4 weeks to join us and link up your creations, so hope to see you there. I made a mixed media autumn/ Halloween tag. I once again used lots of natural elements, and a vintage German scrap witch. I am also linking to Paint Party Friday, Simon Monday challenge, Tag it and Tag Tuesday:





The photos were taken last weekend in the neighbouring town of Duisburg. We went for a walk through the woods, where there are lots of climbing possibilities for young and old - and no, I didn't try it:







Some canals and lakes have been adapted for water sport and regattas:









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

A holiday walk and more

Hi Everybody!

We had a public holiday here today - 'The Day of German Unity'. We were lucky that the sun shone and it was milder,  and I enjoyed visiting my friend N and walking along the other side of the Rhine with her.

For our challenge at Tag Tuesday, Autumn / Halloween, I have another mixed media tag, once again using an eclectic mix of natural and found objects. The tag is 10". I am also linking to Simon Monday Challenge, tag it.




For Paint Party Friday I have an A3 mixed media autumn face, also using leaves which were embossed with Frantage and Utee gold:








Some photos taken on the other Rhine side:







The sheep were enjoying the good weather, too:





This fungus wasn't there when we walked the path a couple of weeks back:


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

T stands for This and ThaT

Hi Everybody!

🌰🍄Here's wishing you all a great October filled with autumn colours.🍄🌰

At Tag Tuesday our Autumn / Halloween challenge is running for another week. I made another mixed media tag. I used more bits and bobs picked up outside, nature has lots of good crafty stuff on offer just now, combined with 2 different scraps of dp, some black netting, a feather and a paper doll turned into an autumn fairy. I am also linking it to Simon Monday Challenge, monochrome:






Tuesday is also Elizabeth's T stands for Tuesday, so here a warm welcome to all of the lovely ladies of the T gang. And it's 2nd on the 2nd at Elisabeth's, too. I am sharing 2 autumnal pieces made 2 or perhaps 3 years ago, and the first is also showing my cappuccino:




The second 2nd on the 2nd piece is a mixed media A3 piece:







And today I am sharing more photos of the sun and moon:



The moon taken a week back:


These photos were taken Sunday evening:






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