Tag and Decoration

Good Day All. 

I am up early as we are off to find a Garden Centre near to Scarborough. It will be adventure as we haven't a clue how to get there from the train station and it is a few miles away from there. It does sound like they do a very nice lunch so it will spur us on to find the way I'm sure. There are taxis or buses if we get lost on foot but it is always great to try to find our way to somewhere new.


I thought you might like to see the decoration that Vic made after seeing the room full of them at Burton Agnes Hall last week


Hung up for Christmas

The room where we saw them


If you would like to make one/some you can find a tutorial here or video here of  how to make one of the six bits here. Vic used a combination of the two tuts to make his.

**************************

This week at Tag Tuesday the theme is 12 Days of Christmas and here is my effort



I made a background with Distressed stains then stuck on 9 of the twelve days of Christmas images.

Now for the twist.

I made a quiz on the back of the tag so that we can hand it around the table at Christmas and there will be extra Christmas Cracker for the one who gets the most answers to the questions. I think I need to type it out as my printing is rubbish :(

    Kudos to Vic on that fabulous snowflake, and good luck with your Scarborough adventure - I hope lunch is worth it.

    Love the quizzing tag - and I think you should leave it with the personal touch of the handwriting - absolutely nothing wrong with it!

    Hope you found your way to the garden centre okay and lunch was worth it - hehehehe!!

    WOW Vic lovely snowflake, didn't realise how big it was until you hung it next to the mirror.

    Fab idea for your tag too and even better with the quiz questions on the reverse.

    Vic did a fantastic snowflake! It looks very exquisitely intricate, and very lovely hanging in your home.

    I love your tag idea. I had to LOL when I read your comment on your printing. I like the way the English speak English :) It reminds us here in America that there are other words in the language. On a side note, though, I could read your printing just fine.

    Hope the garden center is splendid.

    Hugs and blessings,

Tag and Journal page design

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
