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 #06 - June Tag

Well I have finally had a go at Timmy's June tag.

No similar stamps really and no distress markers at all. Just not a colourer-in kind of a crafter. I combined a sewing stamp and one of Tim's "plan" stamps. I used some watercolours from blocks in a tin.

Managed inks, stains and paints for the background though, and I added some tissue tape after being inspired by Tim's Blogworthy link to "that crazy chick"

I even remembered to take a couple of photos in the process this afternoon.

I *love* your colour choices, seeing them made feel happy if you know what I mean. Great take on Tim's tag.

Hi BJ! Posted my Tim tag right next to yours! Your tag looks fab. Love the sherbet colours and that's a great selection of stamps. I don't have any Distress markers either, but I think we both got round that pretty well. Have a good day. MMx

I haven't seen Timmy's tag, but yours is absolutely gorgeous. I really like the colors. They go so well together.

I have to say, if I tell you my "secret" on SOC, I'll NEVER get to be #1 again. You'll beat me every time, just like last year (grin).

Seriously, what I did was I went to SOC on Saturday and attempted to vote. The poll showed it was closed, but all I had to do was see what the winning color combo was by the percentages. Not hard at all. Just don't beat me EVERY week from now on, please!!!
