T sTands for This and That and Three preTTy caTs:

Hi Everybody!

here's wishing us all a good, new week. Hope all are keeping healthy and safe, and that this week will be more peaceful than the last one.

Michele's dance challenge at Tag Tuesday has another week to run, it would be great to see more people joining in with this lovely theme. I have another hybrid tag using a photo background with a silhouette from Serif:

On Monday evening we start Elizabeth's T sTands for Tuesday Link party, so here a warm welcome to all of the T Gang ladies who visit here.  I am posting early as I have a lot to do this week.

I am sharing some presents I got several years back from Tracey Fletcher King, who often painted T-themed things. She sent me this beautiful journal that I have on my bedside table and painted the wonderful tea-cup:

And some coffees from last year - I hope to soon start visiting my cafes again and drinking my coffee outside:

And I have a hybrid journal page for Halle's AJJ challenge, a stitch in time. The background is an abstract marbling using left-overs of oil paint dripped onto a bowl of wallpaper-paste. You can move the colours around with a tooth-pick before using some paper to pick up the colours. The cats are photos which I digitally cut out, and it was put together in Serif:

Some photos from my walks in the past couple of weeks - Canadian geese, especially for David:

Isn't he handsome:

 As always I visited Hofgarten:

The neighbour's beautiful roses:

Have a great day, take care,

and thanks a lot for coming by!

Weekend Post

Hi Everybody!

It's weekend - enjoy!

We actually got some heavy rain-showers yesterday, and I hope we will get more rain over the weekend, it has been so dry here.

I am continuing with my idea of using up my scraps. I already have my A4 journal almost full, and have also made several larger, A3 sheets, which I will bind together with my bind-it-all at the end of the month. I have decided to give my collected junk/scrap collage pages the title of 'Ohne Sinn und Verstand', which translated means more or less 'Without rhyme or reason'. I am just getting rid of my hoarded scraps by assembling them to collages, without taking time to think about things, just allowing a few minutes to sort, paste and layer and to see what comes out at the end, and it is very relaxing not working to a theme, just 'picking and sticking', so to say. Here I added some sewing to finish it off, so I am linking to Halle's challenge at AJJ:

 Some photos from the botanical gardens, where there are also some aquariums:

Have a great weekend, take care,

and thanks a lot for coming by!
