"5 colours" - colouring postcards with crude remarks

A booklet of 23 cards, bought several years ago, coloured by me a few weeks ago using only five colours. I found those double-tip felt-tip pens by Marabu

and I turned six coloured cards into a collage of curse words

on top left: "That wasn't very smart! But it'll definitely make for a cracking story!"

on top middle: "Chaos and commotion"

on top right: The expression "I'm going to turn into a deer here" means that someone is on the verge of despair or is in danger of losing their mind. It is used to express that a situation, a task or a person is getting on one's nerves terribly.

below left: "Just relax already! Damn it!" (exactly it says "damn shit")

below middle: "I am dissatisfied with the overall situation"

below right: " chill out a bit from your base"

Periodensystem der Elemente (German)

Planet Poster Editions

The periodic table, also known as the periodic table of the elements, is an ordered arrangement of the chemical elements into rows ("periods") and columns ("groups") and a traditional dividing line between metals and nonmetals. Aa an icon of chemistry, the periodic table is widely used in physics and other sciences.

The first periodic table to become generally accepted was that of the Russian chemist Dmitri Mendeleev in 1869; he formulated the periodic law as a dependence of chemical properties on atomic mass.

An amazing periodic table can be found HERE

Some time ago, I found a really exciting and funny periodic table that classifies the individual elements according to their edibility. It's called “Can I lick it?”

Development process of a Van Gogh Collage, Grafika, 1000 pcs.

It is my pleasure to be able to show 15 masterpieces by Vincent Van Gogh on one jigsaw puzzle. The puzzle is on loan, a travelling puzzle. For many years now, our forum has offered the opportunity to send puzzles on a journey. Sometimes it is a single jigsaw puzzle, sometimes it is a package with several puzzles (there have even been packages with many finger exercises for the mega marathons).

With travelling puzzles, the person who sends them on their journey decides whether, for example, the last piece should be signed with the date and nickname.

There have been travelling puzzles that have lasted more than a decade (and are still going) – and travelling puzzles that are over after just a few stops.

This package consists of three jigsaw puzzles, a collage

and two other works by Van Gogh: The Church in Auvers-sur-Oise, 1890 + Red Vineyard at Arles, 1890

I have decided to only do the collage because it really fascinates me ... and here we are

Start was on the 9th February. Assorting frames + the sky and assembling the signature

The outer frame was abit tricky due to false-fits

I assorted again: mainly alls yellow and red pieces. I guess it was a good idea

Grief goes out to the deceased and injured victims of the catastrophy at Crans Montana. May the bereaved find strength and the injured recover from their serious injuries.

More than a week has passed since the devastating fire during a New Year's Eve party in the Swiss ski resort of Crans-Montana, and the first victims have now been buried. The fire claimed the lives of 40 people and left 116 seriously injured.

Due to the exceptionally high number of people who suffered severe burns in the basement bar “Le Constellation” when the foam insulation on the ceiling caught fire, Switzerland did not have sufficient capacity to treat them all. About half of the injured are being treated abroad, including in Germany, in specialized burn and accident clinics in various federal states.
