Card and Tag

Happy Mother's day to anyone who celebrates it today. At last we have had a little bit of rain though it has quickly gone away and we have some sun at the moment.Thank you to all who call in at Jumbled Crafts any times it is always appreciated.

At Gecko Galz this time the theme is Country Charm


I made a tag using the Sunny Brook Farm sheet. The background paper I made digitally using the cockerel image.

Country View Challenges have Flower power for their theme this month and I made a card for a friend.


Not the sort of thing I would normally made but the sort of card she will love. I coloured a plain white card with Distressed inks then used a serviette on another piece of card to stick on top of the background. The flower I made from a piece of ribbon off of a chocolate box.

Still another day left to join in at Tag Tuesday and you will be added to a prize draw if you do join us. Also over a week still to go in the Try it on Tuesday challenge so hope to see you there as well.

Enjoy whatever you are doing today

Love Chrissie xx

    Love the nostalgic feel of your cockerel tag - the image and adverts are perfect together. Fabulous vivid florals on the tag. Hope you're enjoying a lovely weekend.

    What incredible art. The chicken is adorable and the tag is perfect. Of course, I like the birthday card, too. Your friend is lucky because you know what she likes.

    Lovely makes Chrissie, I have a soft spot for cockerels as my Grandad used to keep these and chickens (and pigeons) A really pretty birthday card to, it's weird isn't making cards you have to make what the recipient would like even if it's not what you would normally do. Have a fun week, - if it stops raining, Sue xx

    I absolutely love your Country Charm tag, Chrissie! Great idea to make your own paper and focal point from the images on the Farm Fresh collage sheet. Thank you so much for entering your tag in the Gecko Galz May challenge. Good luck and please stop by next time.

    These are beautiful pieces Chrissie! The tag is just lovely, such a country cottage feel to it. The card is absolutely gorgeous, love me some pink flowers! The napkin idea is genius and I love that shabby strip of lace. hugs :)

Hello Everyone and thank you for the wonderful comments you left while I was away. I did have internet a few times but not for very long so I haven't been able to do my usual blog rounds. I will be back to normal now and look forward to seeing your makes. At Tag Tuesday dear Wendy chose Textures as her theme and it is going well. You still have a few days left to join us there with your textured tag so I hope to see your makes This tag is made of fabric that has metal drops on it. Haven't a clue how they do that but it was from quite a nice old tee shirt that I cut up. I used a plastic doillie and a metal adornment from a belt as well. Go Tag Thursday has Star or Stars as the theme for this week. Good to see more people joining in there as well. A bit of a tag revival going on I think. This is a digital tag with free to use tattoo designs and a background I made in Paint Shop Pro. At Art Journal Journey the theme chosen by Rosie is circles and runs until the end of the mon...

T is for Tag Tuesday and Inchie

Hello Friends and Followers. Nice to have you pop in today and thank you for your visit. At Tag Tuesday this time Wilma our teamie has chosen Cake as the theme I went straight out of the cake tin and into a Goth Wedding where the couple can't decided which cake to choose for the happy day. We have seen a few Goth Weddings when we have visited Whitby and they are terrific events with wonderful costumes worn by all. Vic isn't keen on me taking photographs of the Goths though I am sure they wouldn't mind. If you dress as they do I would think you crave attention. Their clothes and make-up are amazing. At Every Inchie Monday this week the theme the animal Fly As I have only being the heads of all the animal inchies this year I found a drawing of a fly's head--yuk. The colour choices are mine and may not be real Happy T Day if you have arrived from Altered Book Lover blog where Elizabeth and Bluebeard invite everyone to join in on Tuesday with a drink related post- or par...

Everyone is welcome to join in with us with their take on the theme. You can use any medium you like to create your tag This tag has corrugated card and ordinary card in the form of butterflies. It has texture paste. wood, a mirror, complete with me and my camera trying to take a picture. Mustn't forget the bit of fluffy wool as a tie as well. I would like to enter this at Go Tag Thursday  where the theme this week is Anything Goes.
