Midweek Post -Strange types

Hi Everybody!

Where does the time go?  I wish I knew!

Today I have another tag for Michele's challenge at Tag Tuesday. I used an image from Gecko Galz on an orange, striped tag and added a blue butterfly and flower:



And I have another of my strange types, collaged with a jacket onto a painted background. I love the quote! I am linking to Neet's type challenge at AJJ:




And I have some strange types I found at the Art Museum in Düsseldorf:
















Have a great day, take care,

Tuesday post

Hi Everybody!

A quick post today - well, quicker than usual, time is running out on me!

This is another face collage, inspired by Karen O'Brien's lesson in Art is magic. I used a magazine page for the background and sewed it onto black card. The lady was cut out and collaged, other bits were from my stash. I am linking to Neet's type challenge at AJJ:






Took these photos this morning in our little town:

 


Clouds and a rainbow are always fascinating:







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

T sTands for a new challenge aT Tag Tuesday

Hi Everybody!

Here's wishing us all a great week!

This evening we are starting a new challenge at Tag Tuesday. This time our lovely and talented Michele is hosting, and has chosen the theme of blue and orange. Tags of all formats are welcome, as long as you show the colours blue and orange, a wonderful combination. As always, you have 2 weeks to join our challenge which will go live at 9p.m. Monday evening.  Hope to see YOU there! I made a tag using a striped  orange background matted with blue. I used various die-cuts, including a blue teapot and cup, as that fits perfectly to Elizabeth's T sTands for Tuesday link party, which also goes live this evening. And the  2 Ts on the teabags stand for both challenges:




And I have lots of orange in my journal page for Neet's type theme at AJJ.
The teashirt was cut from white paper and mounted onto a slightly larger background of type face. The dictionary definition was added with some floral embellishments. And it has a tag with T on it:




These photos were taken at the main station in Düsseldorf- there are lots of possibilities to eat and drink there, not really to my taste and much too expensive:
 





This is a floating snack bar at the Rhine, advertising Shish-kebab:


And my all time favourite:


A sign for a pub near here:


And another one:


I wonder who hopped home with only one flip-flop?


A boat advertising Uerige, a beer speciality in Düsseldorf. 'Dat leckere Dröppke' is Düsseldorf slang and means 'The tasty little drink' - not that people usually consume it in small amounts!



And once again, a drink to make me happy!


I hope I have catered to all tastes with my selection of drinks today.

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