T Stands For Random Spice Merchant Mugs

 

Last week, some of you got the misguided idea I could call a doctor and get the help I needed with my illness.  Although I have tried for several years, I can't seem to find a medical doctor who is taking new patients.  I have visited Emergency Care twice and was no better off once I left and was stuck with a bill I really couldn't afford.  Instead, I am now finally taking some OTC flu and cold medication.  

Since it's T Tuesday, let's look at some random mugs from The Spice Merchant.

I've shown you mine, now it's your turn to share your T entry this week.  The rules are extremely simple.  Your drink related post may be anything from a photo of a glass, cup, or mug, to an actual drink.  You may choose to share a sketch or a digital, hybrid, or traditional page in your scrapbook, art journal, or altered book, as I have done.  Maybe you'd prefer to share a tag, or wow us with your photography.  You might choose a postcard or decorated card.  You might even draw an image on a used tea bag.  Or perhaps you prefer to review a place you visited, a movie, or book.  It makes no difference as long as it's drink related.  And don't forget that the more unique and outside the box it is, the better we like it.  Please tie it back here, and please link only to your T post, not your entire blog.  When you link, Bleubeard, the T gang, and I will be by to visit.   Bleubeard would also like to remind you that your photos may be taken any time.

 

T Stands For Time Out T

 

I have been nowhere this week and barely out of my sick bed for any length of time.  Therefore I decided to share this spread I took from my Hands altered book.

  T Stands For

   Time Out T.

The images are from my Hands AB.  The folded page was covered in hand painted paper.  The F is actually gold leaf, but looks black in my photo.  The pages with hands were first painted using fluid acrylic paints in pink and purple.  The hands were outlined in hot glue, then colored in gold using a Krylon gold leafing pen.

Heads Will Roll

 

I'm sharing this Halloween inspired spread with Elle (eotc), our host this month at Art Journal Journey.  Her themes are Steampunk, Halloween, or Steampunk Halloween. Because the spread has faces (cat, skulls, witch) I'm also sharing this with Nicole and Friday Face Off.

I call this monochromatic spread Heads Will Roll.  Details are below.

I fussy cut five skulls, but could only get four on this spread, which is 11 X 8.5 inches.  I cut the gravestones to size that I colored using a black Posca pen.  I added the black cat and the crosses I made years ago from a rubber eraser.  I computer generated the sentiment and added it to the page.  Finally, I added the witch on a broomstick, which is a red rubber wood mounted stamp that slipped as I was adhering it to the page.  

 

I hope you will join Bleubeard and me at Art Journal Journey and Friday Face Off. I also have a few funny witch inspired memes for Friday Smiles.

  

  

 

 

 

 

   

   

  

   

 

 

  

  

  

  

  

If you didn't understand some of these memes, it's because you are not a witch.  Don't ask me to interpret.  I just copied and pasted them to this blog post (GRIN).  Have a spooky Friday Smiles.

T Stands For Random Mugs

 

My sincere apologies.  I am sick.  I have either the flu or pneumonia.  That is why I have been absent for days.  I refuse to ignore T Tuesday, though. I promise to visit, regardless.  Now let's head out and about when I felt better.

I'm fairly certain I haven't shown these mugs I photographed

the last time I visited The Spice Merchant.
