About Me

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.

Timmy Tag 2014 - #04

Yet again I have pondered Timmy's Tag for most of the month!

I had quite a few of the supplies but was missing the feature Trellis die. I pondered "sharing" the idea of using the Weathered Clock instead but on going through my dies the Fanciful Flight butterfly begged to be used instead.

I really like the idea of replacing the cut out spaces with other different materials like the mirror metal, cork and covered grunge board. I filled all of my spaces in the butterfly wings.

I also like the effect of the distress ink over distress paint.

This is my first "proper" tag this year although I have used each month's techniques on other smaller tags in a journal and also a page in my DLP.
