T sTands for Tag Tuesday and more

Hi Everybody!

Hope your week got off to a good start! It's a chilly but sunny morning here as I write this, and I have been drinking my coffee and watching the sun rise, always a great start to any day. 

At Tag Tuesday we are starting a new challenge today, I am hosting, and our theme is 'anything goes'. Tags of all formats -  large, small, real, digital and hybrid are all welcome, so hope to see YOU joining us! I made a set of 4 tags from an A3 sheet of heavy paper, which was painted with leftover acrylics and textured with a comb. When it was dry, I chopped it into 4 equal pieces and sewed each one to some purple card. Each tag is 12" x 5". Here I stenciled structure paste through a home-made stencil, added feathers, flowers, a dancer and a sentiment:


Here are the 4 tags together, each sewn with a different pattern:







And as I am also hosting AJJ this month, I digitally altered my tag to make a journal page to link there. I placed the tag onto a hand-painted background and added some elements from Mischief Circus and Serif:



And I am also linking to TIOT, fun with stencils, where I am guest designer just now.

And today is also time for Elizabeth's weekly link party, TSFT, so here a warm welcome to all of the lovely ladies of the T Gang.

My drink is, as always coffee - what else?




 The Easter things in the shops have been reduced, and today the shops will be opening again:




There was not much going on the small market last week:


Not many people about in the early mornings:








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

Geometrical shapes and heavenly bodies

Hi Everybody!

Here's wishing us all a good and safe week - stay well and healthy!

Today I have a hybrid piece for my geometric shapes challenge at AJJ,  using one of my colourful backgrounds and images from Mischief circus:



I have been enjoying my morning walks all week. I don't see many people, but most of them are very considerate, so I feel safe:









 Saturday's sunrise:






And the moon photos were taken at the same time, looking in the other direction:



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

Wild and messy

Hi Everybody!

Have a happy and peaceful Sunday!

Today I have made another messy piece for my geometric theme at AJJ. The squares and circles were die-cut from old paintings, and I added some drips and airbrushing and put it all together in my graphics programme, Serif. Some days it just HAS to be wild and messy!



And I have more photos with geometric shapes from  my vast store:



















That's all for today!

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