New Challenge at TIOT

Hi Everybody!

Today we are starting a new challenge at TIOT, and this time our theme is
'inspired by a song'.
As always, projects of all formats are welcome, and you have 2 weeks to join us. Have a look at the lovely projects of my teamies at our blog!

I made a tag, inspired by Julie Andrew's song, 'I could have danced all night'. Strange, as I am neither a fan of her or this song. I was just thinking about what to do and the song was played on the radio - fate! I am also linking to Tag Tuesday, anything goes:



And a few spring photos:


















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

T sTands for This and ThaT

Hi Everybody!

Hope you all had a good and safe weekend, and that your week will be wonderful, too. I had a restful weekend, enjoyed my walks, and also my time just pottering about at home.

For our theme of 'inspired by' at AJJ I have a hybrid piece. Erika and Chris are hosting using Eileen's theme, as she is sadly no longer with us. I was inspired by coffee and Leonardo - what else?! Leda is longing for her morning coffee....



This is also meant for Elizabeth's T sTands for Tuesday link party, which begins on Monday evening, so here a warm welcome to all of the nice ladies of the T Gang who visit here. The shops are always full of tempting items:


Here at the restaurant only take-away is allowed:



The weather was sunny, but cold:




The flower boxes are always well kept:





The way home along our street:







And a neighbour has a palm tree - in winter it's always wrapped in burlap:


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

Weekend Post

Hi Everybody!

Here's wishing us all a good and safe weekend. We have spring like weather just now, even though it's not really warm, but it's wonderful for walking!

Today I have 2 more tags to share for my 'anything goes' challenge at Tag Tuesday. For the first one I used a scrap of designer paper, I think it was from LaBlanche, which I sewed to a recycled background. I hand-sewed the owl charms to the branch.I hope to see some of you joining in, and you still have more than a week to do so:




The second one was made with a sheet of Beatrix Potter cutouts which were a magazine freebie many moons ago. The background is hand painted, and the sentiment was added digitally:


I always love to see the first lilacs blooming:


Blue skies and beautiful blossoms:









The new leaves are always beautiful:








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