More random Spice Merchant mugs

 

I'm back at The Spice Merchant, where I found a bunch of mugs that didn't fit any specific category.  I'm keeping it short this week because I have an appointment at 3:45 my time today.

Hot Stuff!  You can tell they aren't talking about me!
 
I stood on a stool to take this photo of Happy, Happy Day and Hello Gorgeous.
 
I laughed and laughed when I saw this mug!  I tend to agree.  I love the math and geometry symbols on the back.

This bird reminded me of Kokopelli, who draws and paints birds.  I swear, she could have designed and created this mug.

I've shown you mine, now it's time to share your own drink related post.  It can be photos, a place you visited, movies, postcards, books, sketches, mixed media, drawings, paintings, tags, scrapbooking, or other art that is digital, hybrid, or traditional, as long as it in some way relates back to a drink, any drink.  Regardless, please share below and Bleubeard and I will gladly visit, as will other T participants.  Please link only your T post and not your blog in general.  Bleubeard would like to remind you that old photos are acceptable because they may be taken any time, not just on Tuesday and not just this year.  Please remember to visit your fellow T participants. 

 
I would be remiss if I didn't remind you to start digging up your Second on the 2nd.  Hope you will join me with a post (any post, any genre, any length) that you have published in the past.

Haunted

 

Today I'm joining my friend and co-administrator, Erika.   As you probably know by now, her theme at AJJ

is .Home Sweet Home

For obvious reasons, I named this .Haunted

 


I began by printing the word Haunted on 110 lb cardstock.  I then colored the page using two blue and one green water soluble crayons.  I fussy cut the house I found in a magazine.

Bleubeard and I are delighted you dropped by and hope you'll join us at Art Journal Journey and share your own interpretation of Home Sweet Home.

T Stands For St. Patrick's Day

 

 I received this card from my dear friend RO! while I was offline.

The color of the envelope gave it away.

Let's hope that sentiment is actually true this week.This is the stamp.  I looked and looked for it at both USPS and Stamp World and finally had to give up. 

Mae found the stamp set.  Here is the description taken from USPS.  Thank you, Mae.



  The stamps.

I really have no time to create a new post honoring St. Patrick, so I've decided to bring back how I've spent St. Patrick's Day in the past.

A rainbow of shamrocks graced my dining room table as I shared tea with my dear friend Julia from Stamping Ground who sent this tea to me.  It was as delicious as it looked, too.
