Journal Page and digital card

Hi All. We have sun today and it such a wonderful sight after the grey and gloomy days that have been with us for a while. Thank you for calling in at Jumbled to see what I have made. 
You still have today and tomorrow to join us at Try it on Tuesday with a music themed piece--anything you like we'd love to see it.

At Digitally Sweet Challenges the theme this time is Green,White and one other colour.


I made an all digital card in white green and purple. I used brushes I had made for Paint Shop Pro



Here is a background for you to save and use if you would like it. Just right click and save or print it out.

At Art Journal Journey the theme for June is Maps and what a great subject to let your mind go places you maybe never imagined you would visit.


After saying all that I chose a map of a place I know very well and a route I took quite a few times when I lived in Cumbria. I added the words which could apply to most things you try in life.

A few times I climbed to the top of Scafell Pike and that was in the days when the paths weren't as defined as they are now-I have never seen the paths now but been told they are a lot better. It was always exciting to go from home in the car and arrive at Wastwater, that is the deepest and longest of the lakes in the Lake district, then reach the base car park of Scafell and begin the climb. 

Have a great day everyone

Love Chrissie xx

    Great splashes of colour on your digi collage. I think the silhouette looks great on the map.

    Hi Chrissie, just had a super catch up read. The pages look fantastic and I'm sure your SIL will be very cozy in the new cardigan you have made for her.

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.

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
