Photographs, Tag and Journal Page

Hi All. I am looking forward to a crafty day and one that will rest my legs a bit as we have done quite a bit of walking this last week

Crafty makes lower down after the woodland pictures.

Here is a glimpse of what we saw on a woodland walk 2 days ago-Spring bulbs everywhere carpeting the woodland floor. People take lots of bulbs to the walk to plant there so it is very colourful. We have taken saplings there that we grew from conkers and they are doing really well.

Simply beautiful

A curious squirrel--there are many in the wood

This is quite old and some of them have twigs growing through them

no buds on the trees yet.

Now to my crafty makes


This is my make for Moo Mania where the theme this time is London-no need to include a Moo you can make anything you like. I haven't been to London often but we always try to go on a bus and see all around the places of interest. I made this tag on some cardboard packaging so it is a bit rustic.

At Art Journal Journal this month the theme is Fantasy Scene.
I love the idea of wearing flowers in my hair and being surrounded by fantasy flowers so I made this page. Some painting, some stamping, some colouring with Promarkers and I made the fantasy 'me' in Paint Shop Pro a long time ago My ideal fantasy world would be like the one in Avatar but with out the humans invading.


Have a lovely day and thank you for dropping by

Love Chrissie x

    Oh great idea for a Fantasy Scene, Chrissie, love the colourful fantasy flowers and the fantasy you with flowers in your hair and a flowery necklace.
    That's such a nice idea taking bulbs to plant in the wood, the crocuses do love the sun.

    Glorious photos - the one looking up into the bare tree silhouettes is simply fabulous - and how lovely that people take things along to plant to enhance Mother Nature's already bountiful offerings.

    Love your London bus tag - the twisty topping is perfect! And, like Catherine, I'm absolutely in love with your Buddha quote on the gorgeous floral page. Colour, beauty and profundity in one page - thank you.

    Oh what I would give to go on a double decker bus tour of London! I have been twice and I don't know if I can get lucky enough to go again!
    I think southern ladies would love wearing flowers in their hair while drinking mint tulips. You scene is definitely pretty and so is that lady. Now I am not sure that southern ladies follow the Buddha but I can assure you, our thoughts are pure!!!

    Such lovely photos with the kiss of warmer days. Love the Buddha quote...quantum physics 101 and secret of life which has been taught throughout the millenniums.

    Hugs,

    Lovely to see snowdrops again. Perhaps you can slot one behind your ear and live a little of your fantasy, Chrissie :)

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
