Craft Room Challenge and a few photos from yesterday

Hi All. A beautiful day here again and I have done lots of washing and it all dry and ready to iron if anyone fancies popping round to do it--I will provide coffee and biscuits. :)

At Craft Room Challenge this time it is Bingo and there are some wonderful lines to choose from. I chose Lace-Brown-Pearls or Gems

I made this pillow gift box. The little owl is a Walter and Winnie digi stamps. The frame and I made in Paint Shop Pro then decoupaged parts of that a few times to add depth to the images. The swirls are a JOY die. and the lace and pearls were from my bits and bobs box. I really had fun making this.

Thought you might like to see a few pics from our walk yesterday. We always seem to find nice places that are peaceful and we are the only ones around. I walked along the sea edge while Vic walked along the edge of the cliffs to look for fossils.

Interesting pieces in the sea-Vic said he thought they were pill boxes from the war

Hope you enjoyed the bit of sea breeze and have a good rest of the day

Hi All. Thank you for visiting today and I hope you like what you see here. A fine bright day but colder today so I may fit in a walk later though I had some curtains to make before I do anything else. At Tag Tuesday this week the theme is Diva. I don't always remember to show my tags for there as you need to be a member and and do your own posts on Tag Tuesday's blog. I chose Elizabeth Taylor as my Diva she was so beautiful in films but definitely a Diva in her private life. Art Journal Journey are still drawing me in with the artists inspired theme so here is yet another page for the challenge there.  This was inspired by Damien Hirst though years ago I didn't feel inspired by his work at all when I saw some of it for real at the Liverpool Tate Gallery. We had gone there to see the wonderful Rodin sculpture 'The Kiss' which graced the entrance to the Gallery. Then we strayed into the next part and a whole wall was covered in dots. It didn't look like art to
