Hello Everyone. Here I am back again already with another post. Thank you for calling in. I am happy to announce our new theme at Tag Tuesday where Wendy is hosting this time and has chosen texture as the theme for the next two weeks. Thank you to everyone that joined in with the Animals challenge your tags were amazing and such a pleasure to visit your blogs. Hope to see you again in the next 2 weeks. Not sure when I will pop in this week are going to be away. I knitted a tag with different textures of wool. A lot of it isn't wool at all with cotton, silk, synthetic fibres and even some ribbon in there. Vic wanted to know what it was for? Here is another tag for the challenge something completely digital with textures cut into shapes in Paint Shop Pro.  At Digitally Made anything goes but you have to add a quote this month. This is their second challenge and I was so thrilled to win the first one they had. It is so good to be relearning some of the things I did everyday way bac...

Hello everyone. Welcome to my little part of Blog Land and thank your for your visit.  Happy T Day if you have arrived from Elizabeth's where she invites everyone to post a drink related post every Tuesday. I usually post mine Monday evening as Tuesday is always my 'busy' new challenge day on my blog. The new challenge tomorrow will be at Tag Tuesday so hope to see you there We went on the train to Goole as we wanted to see the Waterways Museum. Before we set off to find the museum we found this really lovely cafe in a very large but strange building. Usual toasted tea cakes and coffee and they were really nice. Not sure I would ever go to Goole again but I do have photographs to show you of our adventure there--they just need sorting out. The Every Inchie Monday theme this week is zebra I picked up the wrong colouring pen and the poor animal has a blue mane. At More Mixed Media you can make anything at all with the option this time of adding some purple to your project....

Hi All. Happy Weekend and a big thank you for calling in at Jumbled Crafts along the way At Go Tag Thursday this week the theme is Fruit I used a piece of a mop up page as the background and then painted the edges gold. The fruit was cut from a supermarket magazine. It is a big tag so I will pin it on the wall to remind me to eat my 5 a day. More photographs of when we went to Southport but these are all from Liverpool and the wonderful, amazing, terrific Walker Art Gallery. It is the second largest art gallery in England and I have wanted to go to it for so long. We were some of the first people into the gallery as it didn't open until 10.30. We had got an early train to Liverpool from Southport then taken an open topped bus trip around the city to find out where things were. Just some of the sculptures that greet you in the first room. It is breath taking A taster of one of the art galleries and I will sort out some of the pictures and exhibits for another day. Hope you enjoyed ...

Hi All. A nice sunny day here today and I am pleased we didn't stay up all night for the election programmes as it means I am ready to go for a walk this morning instead of sleeping the day away. Thank you for your visit and any comments you leave on my blog. At  Tag Tuesday  you still have a few days to join us in he challenge.  Michele  has chosen animals as the theme. There is also a prize for a random winner and that is given by Karen at  Lunagirl I have made a very large tag with a eucalyptus leaf background and a sprayed paint and stamped paper I made. Then I added the cute koala mum and baby, found here , plus a quote. These have both been raised with 3D foam tape. A bit of fluffy wool as a tie as I imagine it feels like koala fur though I have never been lucky enough to stroke one. At Try it on Tuesday we started our new challenge this week and it is Steampunk so I hope to see you there as well Back in 2012 I made a few steampunk figures and I gave the...

Hi All from a very wet NE UK Coast. It was a beautiful day yesterday but back to the rain again today. We will be going out to vote later and then tonight we will stop up as long as we can stay awake to watch the election results. Thank you for calling in at Jumbled Crafts. At Art Journal Journey,  Rosie has chosen circles as the theme. I have lots of ideas and hope to do some actually painting of a page for this but so far time just keeps running away with me. This page is all digitally created. Various digital effects and brushes in Paint Shop Pro. The image is a photograph of an ornament and the background I painted digitally I would also like to enter this at Digitally Made  where it is their second challenge with a theme of add a quote. Thank you to them for choosing me as their winner for the first challenge, I was really thrilled. Still lots of pics from Southport I want to show you but I am trying the cull them or you will get bored with the whole thing. These are pho...

Hello Everyone. Nice to have you visit Jumbled Crafts today and thank you for your visit. Time for a new challenge at Try it on Tuesday  where the theme this time is Steam Punk or Mechanical. You can make anything you like and in any way you like so long as it follows the theme. We hope you will join in with your take on this challenge. Lots of inspiration from the rest of the team so pop and see what they have made and visit their blogs and say hello if you have time. Also we have two new team members for even more inspiration. Welcome to Joan and to Rosie , great to have you as part of our team. I made a cup but I am sure no one will want to drink from it as it is very heavy and the silver paint inside might not taste too good. I think it may be good for Vic to keep in the shed with his screwdrivers in it. My cup was from McDonald's and the outer shell peels off quite easily Stick this to a piece of thick paper then cut out the shape Next I used aluminium foil stuck to stri...

Hi All. Hope you have had a good day and managed to fit in some crafting. Thank you for your visit to Jumbled Crafts where I have a bit of a mixed bag for you. At Every Inchie Monday the theme this week is Gorilla Not my own drawing . This one I found on a kiddies colouring page and enjoyed colouring it in and then scanning and resizing it Happy T Day if you have arrived her from Elizabeth's drinks party. You can join in with any drinks related post and are always very welcome by the host. This is me in Southport having  an ice cream-well it was very hot that day. And here I am with a mouthful of biscuit in a cafe nearer home. Apparently it has been down a side street for 3 years and we only just found it. Called the Wish Cat Cafe and it is full of wonders We now have a loyalty card for there so will be going again. Last but by no means least I have another tag for Tag Tuesday were the theme is Animals this time. Chosen by our own Michele with a prize from Karen at Lunagirl A l...
