T stands for inchie and tag

Hi All and a happy new week. Thank you for popping in at Jumbled Crafts.

Happy T Day to my friends from Elizabeth and Bluebeard's Tuesday get together. Happy 4th Anniversay to their T a Day posts.
This week we haven't been far at all as we both like watching Wimbledon so have stayed home and just had a short walk somewhere in the morning. Short walk meaning 10,000 steps if possible


 This is my meal in a bowl and a drink. It is quick to make and means I can nibble at it with a fork and watch television with a nice cup of tea. It is a tuna salad with grapes.

I was going to be really clever this week and make a tea cup and saucer with beautiful additions. This came about because I decided to clear out lots of old folders on my computer and this project was in one of them

I made the cup ok, then thought WHY? It may or not get finished. The picture in the cup is how it should look.

This week at Every Inchie Monday we have Buffalo as the theme


I used an outline found on Google, made it fit an inch square and coloured with Promarkers by me.

At Tag Tuesday we have another week of 'cake' chosen by Wilma so do join us with your take on the theme as we love to see what your ideas are.


A digital tag from me this time and I had my grandfather in mind when I made it as he was a violinist and loved any type of music. He also loved cake, cream and strawberries

Tomorrow sees the start of a new challenge at Try it on Tuesday so hope to see you there as well

Have a great day

Love Chrissie xx

    Lovely post, great tea cup and saucer, and love the look of that strawberry cream cake with the violin, yummy. Great inchie, too. Glad you had fun watching Wimbledon. I went to art group today and finished my collage. Happy T day to you, too, hugs, Valerie

    It was a lovely post to read Chrissie. Your meal looked delicious.
    It was a wonderful tag and inchie, the cup and saucer looked a beautiful project as well.
    Its amazing what we seem to store on our computers, but is good to have a sort out now an again.
    Happy T day.

    I was a bit surprised to see your comments have now taken you to a new page, rather than staying on it. I hope I remember everything I want to save. Sometimes when I realize that I won't see the original post, i write little notes so I don't miss anything.

    I'll begin with Wimbledon. My friend Sally, the tennis freak (and foodie, too) was very disappointed with the final few days. She said she preferred the opening few days when there were more people to watch play. I think she wasn't happy with some of the winners at the end, too.

    Your inchie is wonderful. I always look forward to seeing them. If Kathy in the Ozarks is able to post today, she will LOVE the buffalo because she has a thing for them.

    Your tea cup is fabulous. Personally I think it looks OK without the top edging. It's a beautiful pattern and lovely 3-D cup.

    Your salad looked great, too. I like the combination of the grapes, tuna, and what looked like lettuce or celery. Either way, it went well with your tea.

    Thanks for sharing your inchie, your beautiful new paper cup, your salad, and your tea with us for T this soon-to-be Tuesday.

    Tuna and grapes sounds perfect for me. I need to get back to walking as I have gained back all the weight I lost in the spring sigh-too hot and humid here now but I can walk up and back and around in the house too. Loved your tea cup!
    Happy T Day Kathy

    I was only interested in Wimbledon because, after the match, the new Doctor would be announced. Your paper teacup is so pretty. I have a pattern for a cup and saucer but never got around to making it. Maybe you'll inspire me. Tuna salad with grapes would be perfect for today as it is very humid out. Your homage to your grandfather is beautiful. Have a Happy T Day

    So many fun things you shared. The teacup is just lovely. I try to do 10000 steps as well but some days it just doesn't happen.
    Happy T day

    Great makes Chrissie, your buffalo makes me smile, and your tea cup and saucer is so pretty. I've really enjoyed the tennis this year, so glad that Roger won, but I always feel sorry for the losers xx

    I think your paper tea cup looks cool-finished or not.And nice to take a 10,000 step walk. I usually get about 7,000 on mine, so I am impressed. :) Hope the matches are going the way you want them too. happy T day. Erika

    Thanks for all the news and I am very grateful for the low kilojoule cake! I often save ideas and when I review the files I often think "why?" also, and if I do I simply delete...so many ideas and so little time! (But I really don't like clutter, including digital, it simply makes it too difficult to find the really good stuff you know is there somewhere!

    BTW, love the buffalo "raspberry"...Dixx

    10,000 steps is a short walk, Chrissie? You put me to shame. I struggle to average 4,000 steps in a day. That's my current Fitbit goal.

    The paper teacup is darling. I think you "need" to finish it;-) I love your cake tag tribute to your grandfather.

    Happy T-Day! Hugs, Eileen

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. 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
