Cards

Hi All from a dark, wet NE UK coast. Too awful to go for a walk yet but maybe the sun will come out this afternoon. A good time to craft and join in a few challenges and then maybe watch some tennis on television so no grumbles from me. Thank you for calling in at Jumbled Crafts on your travels

At Country View Crafts this month the theme is Feeling Blue.

I hadn't many blue things at all but used Distressed ink to dye a few things to match. The flower is stamped on parchment and coloured with felt tips.

Our Creative Corner have gone Topsy Turvy which is something to think about for sure


Think I may need a few of these cards as we always seem to be upside down at Christmas Time. I decorated the digital tree with brushes I made in Paint Shop Pro

Have a lovely weekend

Chrissie xx

    So blue and shimmery, just gorgeous! Love that second card, the sentiment is such a perfect fit and it really made me smile (sort of how I have felt the last month or so) lol.

    You first card is a lovely vision in blue... and a lot more finished than mine since I have lost all inspiration and enthusiasm! Your second one is really funny and clever, well done the topsy-turvy theme is not exactly easy...

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.
