Birds of a feather

 Hi Everybody!

Short post today, got  a lot on my plate!

These tags were once a sheet of paper on which I made a quick bird painting with water colours. Our new challenge at Tag Tuesday is birds, so I  cut the tags from the page and made a duo of tags. Then I put both of them onto a black background, 8x8" and ade them into a journal page, which I am linking to my anything goes challenge at AJJ:








Hope to be back to normal soon and have more time for blogging!

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

T sTands for Tuesday on Monday

Hi Everybody!

Hope you all enjoyed your weekend, and that we all have a good, new week.

Today I am sharing an A3 acrylic piece meant for my anything goes challenge at AJJ and for Elizabeth's T sTands for Tuesday link party which begins this evening. Welcome to all the nice ladies of the T Gang! The photos here are bad, I took them with my phone in the evening just using my desk light, but you can see Coffeecat, and that's the main thing!


This is the pub/restaurant where we usually eat. This time we sat inside, or we would have frozen:


Here's Heike saying 'Prost!' to you all:


And we drank our usual Weizen beer without alcohol:



I had a busy week at the clinic, was home at the weekend, and will be leaving the clinic on Wednesday. It's been a long time, but the days have flown by. I'm looking forward to getting back to normal, whatever that meansns in this crazy world.

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

Picatso

Hi Everybody!

It's weekend, enjoy!

Today I am sharing another piece for my anything goes challenge at AJJ

Allow me to introduce you to Picatso, a tough guy cat from the city streets who always gets his way. He reminded me of Macavity, a poem we learned at school, and I wrote a few lines on the page. the poem is from T.S. Elliott, and you can read it here. Picatso doesn't look like Macavity, but he behaves like him!





Signs of spring and life in our little town:



















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

Thursday Post and 2nd on the 2nd

Hi Everybody!

Today I have another piece for my anything goes challenge at AJJ. I used a vintage envelope on which I glued lots of stamps and then stamped various images and words with Archival black ink. I collaged it onto a 7" x 7"piece of black card from an old calendar. This was quick and fun:




And I have some collage pieces posted in 2014, using various scrap papers, remnants of ribbons and cloth and a lot of sewing. They are all A3 size, and I am linking to Elizabeth's 2nd on the 2nd:





This was one of my faves:













I think I will make more collages like this, they were such fun to make!

I am also linking to Nicole's FFO and Gillena's Friday art fun.

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