Greetings to Bijou this
Tuesday! I am so glad to have you out in public!
The challenge from i am the diva was to try out this new format! You can find out more about Bijou here.
I am waiting for my
Bijou tiles to arrive, so for this weeks challenge I was not sure what I wanted
to do. But wait, I thought to myself…. I think I have something that will work.
While at Tangle U earlier this spring we were gifted two wee samples of Sue
Jacobs beautiful hand colored tiles, a round and a square one. What if they were
the right size? I was lucky and the square one was the perfect Bijou size! If
you are interested in Sue’s tiles and want to order some for yourself, you can
see and read all about them here. They are really quite lovely.
I decided that Bijou
would walk along the Printemps trail, among the Zingers.
I also continued to
enjoy leaving some RAZ’s, Random Acts of Zentangle, around Lake City,
Minnesota.
First I left this one at
Port 104, a restaurant/bar, with an attached bowling alley. They had some folks
in there bowling one evening and here is the tile I left behind and the
placement on the table.
The second one was left
at my favorite little shop, Treats and Treasures. Here is the tile placed in
the shop, (sorry about the quality, but I had to be really subversive with this
one due to the other shoppers). They have the greatest fudge! My current
favorite is the Espresso, followed closely by the Dark chocolate caramel sea
salt.
Here is a better shot of
it.
We continue to enjoy the
beautiful view, sitting out in front of our place in the evenings.
My thanks to you for
stopping by,
and to all of you lovely people who commented on my work last
week,
You Rock!
Have a Terrific Tuesday
and Tangle On!
Your little Bijou is so sweet working his way through such a beautifully done tile. Do you ever wait to see if anyone picks up your work? It would make me crazy HAHA!
ReplyDeleteJean, I don't wait, but I must confess, I did check one of the places to see if it had been picked up yet. It's really quite fun to decide where to leave them and try to get the photo without getting "caught" too. I just hope that the folks who find them enjoy them!
DeleteWhat a lovely gift to someone special (maybe Bijou) hope Lake City enjoys. Beautiful work, I can't believe you parted with those lovely pieces. Beautiful work.
ReplyDeleteOMG.... These are so wonderful... and I love the fact that you left them around... I would love to try that some day... sounds like a lot of fun... and the fudge... sounds GREAT too... Love them all and it would be hard to choose my favorite... but I think the first one with Bijou in it... love it all... Love, Light and Peace...Bonnie
ReplyDeleteThese are awesome. Your linework is superb on all of them especially the tile with your variation on Purf.
ReplyDeletemy how vibrant your lovely tile is. I love bijou along his printemps trail
ReplyDeleteAll three are beautiful :)
ReplyDeleteI love Bijou nestled among the Printemps!
ReplyDeleteWonderful Bijou Tile. Love the color and design. I enjoyed your RAZie adventures. There are some folks who are the recipients of these beautiful Tiles who don't know how lucky they are. Beautiful work.
ReplyDeleteThey are all so very beautiful! I did it once, leaving a tile (RAZ) in a shop. I always think that I'll do it more, but then forget. Thanks for reminding.
ReplyDeleteGreat Bijou tile. I like the blue. It has an aquatic feel to it. I really like the second tile that you left at T & T. The sepia highlights really make this a stunner.
ReplyDeleteWonderful your blue Bijou tile! Great highlights on Printemps! Your tile for RAZ is really gorgeous with the touch of colour!
ReplyDeleteOhmygosh, how fun is that - random acts of Zentangle. I can so get into this. :) I do love your tiles, especially the one with the lovely pink/coral.
ReplyDeleteAll are absolutely lovely!
ReplyDeleteI love the aqua snail. And the idea of leaving behind tiles is simply beautiful. Both RAZ's are beautiful
ReplyDeleteuuuh, i remember all the noises, when maria and rick introduced bijou to the 15th czt-class.and now, how great to see what everybody is creating for this bijou-challenge. i really like your blue tile, immagine how proud bijou is, when he sees, that art lady takes time to draw him...and all the other artists too
ReplyDeleteI love your little blue Bijou, and I especially like your interpretation of Purk in the next tile. Very different and nicely geometric!
ReplyDeleteI like that Bijou is taking a stroll down printemps. Your random acts are beautiful also, both the work and the thought.
ReplyDeleteThese are all gorgeous! I love the last one best and what a fun idea to leave them different places. Do you sign them on the back or just leave them? I always wonder what to do with all the tiles I create!

Love your blue Bijou! Both tiles are beautiful. The highlights and colors on both tiles are just gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteJust gorgeous! How clever of you to leave Bijou as RAZ's. You've inspired me to do this in Australia this week. The perfect size to leave a beautiful Bijou snail trail of fun!
ReplyDeleteKate... Your entries are absolutely wonderful! I sure wish I lived in your area... I would be on the look out to find one of your tiles! What a treasure! I haven't left a tile yet... maybe soon...
