T sTands for advenTure

Hi Everybody!

Hope you enjoyed your weekend - now have a great start in the new week.

I have another tag for Sandie's 'sea' challenge at Tag Tuesday. I made a painted masterboard again which I chopped into 3 pieces and mounted onto kraft paper to make three large 11" x 5" tags. I added some quick embellishments and made a 'nautical knot':




And I made a hybrid journal page for Erika's 'when it's hot' theme at AJJ. The lady is looking pensive, it's too hot in her garden and she's staring a out of the window and wishing she was at the sea, because she saw my tag....




This evening we will be starting Elizabeth's T sTands for Tuesday link parTy, so here a warm welcome to all of the lovely ladies of the T Gang who visiT here.

Two years back I visited Neviges, a town with a fascinating, modern Cathedral, and very interesting sights all around.  I will show more photos in the course of the week.  First we drank coffee. This was in the pilgrim's centre, and there are no fixed prices, you are just asked to give a donation if you can:



After doing some exploring we visited this flea-market café:














And of course, there was more coffee:



Later we visited this lake:


I enjoyed seeing all the turtles in a row:




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

Weekend Post

Hi Everybody!

Today I have another tag for Sandie's challenge at Tag Tuesday
This is one of the few stamps I have with a sea-side theme, and I have used it year for year. Here I have done a lot of stitching, and made a beach from torn paper. The sun is an ornament from some shoes I had more than 20 years ago - they have long since gone, but I kept the suns!




And I have more pictures from our beautiful glass museum.
Some modern pieces:








And lots of antique glass from the Romans, Phoenicians and Islamic cultures:















I'll be back on Monday!

Have a happy weekend, take care,
and thanks a lot for coming by!
