About Me

My photo
Hi, Welcome to my Blog. I'm an eclectic kind of crafter delving into many pots. I am just about managing to keep up my Scrapbooking Diary (usually about 6 months behind), plus any cards as required. I have a new found love of Watercolour and Bible Journaling plus recently Faith/Art Journaling too. I've challenged myself to make an art journal page a day for this my 60th year. Previously I've also dabbled in ATCs, Tags, Altered Books, Mixed Media, Décopatch, Knitting, Crochet, and Embroidery amongst other things. I live in Surrey, UK with my husband, our son has left home now. For exercise I usually play Badminton and go Ballroom and Latin Dancing. I also like walking/Geocaching and sometimes do a bit of Bouncing on my Rebounder (mini trampoline). I have been learning to play the harp for the past 10yrs. I am now officially retired. I am a born again Christian, currently worshiping at my local Vineyard Church.

Scrapping the Generations

At last - scrapping mode. Here's some photos of me, my Mum and son in my Aunty's back garden when we visited over Jubilee Weekend. Loved the poppy photo and just HAD to cut round it and it pointed me towards the colour for the page. The pink paper had the turquoise boarder already and it just snowballed from there. Used my WORDPLAY die and my now trusty typewriter.

That poppy is gorgeous BJ, I can see why you would want it on your page. The colours you have used are perfect with the poppy and it looks like your Wordplay die is working better now, the word is lovely, as are the photos. Crafty hugs, Anne x
