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.

TH #1 - January Tag

There is something innately satisfying in doing one of Timmy's Tags, especially when your mojo is flagging, as they give you direction and even if you don't have all the same stash and you just manage to make something similar, that is even more satisfying.

So yes I have piled in and made the January Tag. I just love cogs and clocks and it gave me an excuse to get my REAL clock pieces out again, very tiny and very fiddly but I love them. Set the clock face to just gone midnight which is the time I finished it!! Bopping away to Absolute Rock on my new DAB radio.

Hmmmm - life can be sweet!

Me thinks you had a fab time playing your your stuff while you made your tag. Love all the details and the real clock parts are a must if you have them.
