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.

Summer of Colour 5 : Week 3

This week on Kristin's challenge we have the colours, 2 purples and a yellow.

I have used Distress Inks; Dusty Concord, Shaded Lilac and Mustard Seed,

Liquid Pearls; Majestic Purple and Gold Pearl and

Stickles; Lavender and Golden Rod.

I used half a stamp from the same set as the last one I used plus some peg stamps.

It's all coming together nicely.

I had intended to drop by after I linked and saw your name, but I was so exhausted, I simply crashed. This latest entry is adorable. You stamp SO well. And you certainly have a wide array of products from which to choose.

Had to laugh at your comment about my bed sheets. I promise I will never run out of those because I get them from my neighbor or the thrift store.
