Digital Collage

                                                               

Hello Everyone, nice that you have popped in to Jumbled Crafts today and I always appreciate your comments and thoughts.

This week the theme at Three Muses is Vintage Family


I used family photographs of my paternal grandfather and grandmother with their father's on either side and a brother of my grandmother in the middle.

All of the photographs of my grandmother's family were in poor condition and I don't recall every seeing any of them until recently when an aunt sent me copies of them. I am sure they have a story to tell as there was always mystery surrounding the family. I suppose I could delve into the past and try to find out more but I am not sure I want to solve the mystery it may not be as interesting as my imagination.

Have a wonderful day. 

Love Chrissie xx

    So glad I caught this -- one of my favourites of your digi makes ever! Love how it draws the eye inward and the family photos are wonderful. I'd stick with your imaginary histories for them - they can get up to anything then!!

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
