Robot at SPA

 I've not played at Sunday Postcard Art for a while, so decided it was high time I got back there.

I am glad that I did as Aimeslee is hosting her Robot theme. Aimeslee is a crafter I have known from quite some time ago when we used to enter the same challenges at Artistic Outpost, which sadly stopped a few years ago, but often since then we have crossed paths through other challenges.

So Aimeslee, here is my Robot postcard....


Using up some spare card from another project I cut my postcard to the required size, 4"x 6" and stamped it up to make it a bit grungy, adding some doodles here and there.

The Owl Robot, the sentiment and background stamps are all by Lemon Creation.

Another Numbers Tag

 Just dropping in to share another Tag for the challenge over at Tag Tuesday

It was my turn to choose the theme and I chose Numbers ( more than one )

I die cut the tag from some spare card that I had left over from another project, mainly because I love the colour combo. I had been having a play with water colour paints.



The stamp I think ( sorry, its such an old stamp ) is by Artistic Outpost and the sentiment by Lemon Creation.

Numbers Tag

 It's my turn to host this fortnights challenge over at Tag Tuesday.

My theme is Numbers, can be any amount, but a minimum of 3.

Here is my first tag, the handsome Steampunk Man is from a set of digi images from Lemon Creation

Most of the background images are from Lemon Creation Stamps.



For my 2nd tag I have coloured using distress ink and the stamp is an oldie from Crafty Individuals



Please pop over and join in with our challenge, would love to see you and our team will drop by your blogs and leave some love.

School Days

 I love Michele's  theme over at Tag Tuesday, she has chosen School Days. It takes me back to when I was at school.

 I was a child who did enjoy going to school, although I wasn't a very quick learner and very often was told off for "not paying attention"

By the time I reached the age of 12yrs, I settled down and actually started to learn. Learning, back in the day, was so different than it is today, also the schools are more modern now. Teachers taught a variety of subjects and some things I still apply to my daily living now.

From the age of four and a half, my first day at school, my mother left me in reception, there was a smaller girl than myself who was crying so much, I went over to her and asked why she was crying, she said her mum has just left her here. I replied, so has my mum, but we can be friends and stay together. We are still very good friends almost 70 years later ( and yes, I am that old )


For my tag I stamped a grungy background and used images from a paper pad, at least I think they are, they've been in my craft room for a couple of years now. They were loose and given to me with other bits and bobs by a friend who has given up crafting. I used the school label, then cut the boys out and laid them over the labels.

The Seaside

 I have finally got my tag made for Pinky's Seaside theme over at Tag Tuesday. I have been lagging a bit with my makes, doesn't help when I've been decorating my bedroom, which took me ages as I didn't have much help. The only good thing was I was able to get rid of some clothes for our local charity shop. I thought if I've not worn it in the last year, there's no point putting things back for another year. I also realised I am becoming a hoarder,lol.

So here is my Tag, I have used several different makes of stamps for this one.



There's still time to play along, you can find us here...Tag Tuesday

Vintage at Tag Tuesday

 It's been a funny week for me, a mixture of decorating, a painful back and somehow picked up a sickness bug.

So I apologise for not blogging my 2nd Tag over at Tag Tuesday

The theme is Vintage...


Still a few days left, so time to play along if you wish...x

Summer Holiday

 Sorry I haven't been around much, I've not really had the mindset to craft much due to family issues, then we have had all this extremely hot weather, which I just can't tolerate.It was a whopping 30 degrees in my home last evening, even though I had 3 fans running, plus later when it was cooling down, I had all the windows open, I was so hot that I thought I would self combust!



I realised this afternoon, that I hadn't made my tag for Valerie's "Summer Holiday" theme at Tag Tuesday  having missed Michele's theme I felt guilty skipping again, so made a quickie tag.

Keeping it in a blue tones, my Summer Holiday, would have to be by the sea, warm and sunny and very near the water so I can just cool down quickly, perfect for me.

Thank you to those that drop by my blog, I appreciate your comments xx
