Tag time again, come on down lol....

Morning lovely friends,  Happy July 1st , can you believe it, wow its flying guys. Are we all well, I hope so, the heat finally gave up and let us have a break, heaven knows we needed it, I couldn't live in a very hot country, just not built for it, even one of my sons declared he would prefer to move to the artic, hahaha, he would soon be home....

OK, so I made this tag, it was a card but I just wasn't 'into it' so I tore it up and thinking the new Tag a long challenge would start today give it ago, mainly because they always do a theme but also you can do anything goes. If you fancy playing there I just looked and this month the theme is favourite colour or anything goes, so you can't lose can you ????

The background is stencilled, the rest is from  Mintay pad, had for a while and hate to use but its so silly not to. I added a stripe of Tims words and some waxed cord for the bow, must confess I went over-board with the ink splashes but not done for some time and enjoyed it !!!

Another look just to make sure we can see it all...

Thats it, obviously I will enter into  Tag along HERE 

For those wondering  I do love the pink colour but I can never really pin point one colour I love more than another...

********************************

Footnote, went to hospital visit yesterday, more tests to see if I am fit for whatever they intend to do next, its all very tiring but we have it to do, I am fine just want this next bit over and be ok. 

Thanks so much for being here, love to all.

Happy Sunday....

 

Good morning to one and all, its a sunny day here in good old Blackpool so I feel so good, nothing nicer than a fine day to lift the spirits.

To all of you who are lucky enough to still have your Dad with you, enjoy the day, hope you spoil him.

********************

Ok, so guess what I mad yesterday, haha, a TAG !!!!!! oh its becoming quite an addiction I tell ya...

This one is very beachiefied, {not spelt right even if its a real word but you get the gist...)

Some time ago I was very lucky to get a lovely surprise in the post from Carol, she was having a clear out and sent me so much stash, in that was some gorgeous pre-cut tags, so time to use one, I found some DP that I liked as a background, then stencilled a soft pattern and added some script from an old stamp set, then I strated to have some fun with these lovely pop outs from another old book I had, I love anything to do with the beach, and instead of just keep looking at then I decided to use, guess what I love it.

The middle sentiment I just tore up alittle then just added a few little things, so cute.

Now I must credit Chrissy for all this, she does the most wonderful scenes, so she got me all fired up to actually use some stash up..HOWEVER, she sent me the best stuff ever and after I have looked at it long and hard, I 'may' just use them, haha, I will but you get what its like.

OK, thankyou for staying this long, one last thing to share, I have some sweet rose bushes around the place, this is one of my mothers, no idea of the name and its well over twenty years old, the smell is wonderful and if you pass it in the evening air the fragrance just travels with you.

Three on one stem, love it.

Enjoy your day ladies, sending out love to all.

Yet another Tag...

 

Morning to you all, so far so good weather wise, its all we ever seem to talk about but hey-ho...lol...

Had a play yesterday with a piece of card I had in my drawer, I had used it to stamp some new stamps on ages ago and thought I should use up.

After inking up the background I started cutting out all those little stamps , inking them up then finding more little travel type stickers from an old book, then of course comes Tim's book of words, love it.

Different angle. Hope you like.

The Pet Scan went ok, got to wait now for new results, I have been told things are getting bigger but slowly....anyway, keep smiling and hope for the best thats what I say. Thankyou so much for all the well wishes and prayers too, it helps I do believe that. 

Tag time...

 

Morning lovely people, hope all is well and fingers crossed the sun is out, don't say that out loud whoever controls it will hear and draw the curtain over it...:))

*******************

Right I had a play making two tags actually, one is just a try out of one I saw on my travels ages ago and never got round to, I haven't finished it fully, but here is the gist of it.

This is how it looks when folded up.

Use any size square you have and fold as seen here 

Best bit for me is the inside, I suppose you could use double sided paper but I thought I would print something out like small pictures of the recipient or the like, but up to you, I just like the idea.

Ok next up is the tag I will enter into the Tag along challenge, its a pocket tag so you can slide some cash in. The theme this month is to have add some text, so I brought out this old-ish stamps from Clarity, I do love but like all of us don't use much.

The DP is from an old pack, so is the torn vellum and gold string.

Just a little one of the top.

Thats it guys, sorry if I waffled on to much, right I shall leave you all in peace, I am preparing myself for yet another pet scan tomorrow, I really hate these ones but you have it to do, fingers crossed please. :))

Just a little play.

 

Morning lovely people hope all is well, if not then lets hope things get better soon..

I have tons of wreath making stash, I used to make lots at one point but for some reason it faded, as things do. Anyways getting on with it, I made this little one, kept it simple as in truth I couldn't be bothered sorting out the rest of the stash, lazy, well yes I confess I am right now, but I hope you still like.

As you can see I used flowers and leaves and some grassy stuff which I have no idea how long ago I bought, the ribbon is stash, I do love it, but, most of all I love the little summer hat, its so cute, I added little sunglasses and ribbon, I have a bag of these hats and I just fine them so cute.

See, how cute is that hat, hahaha. I also forgot to say I also added some straw left randomly to go where it wants.

Abit closer, BTW, I hung it on my understairs door to take the picture which is also my blackboard for things to remember, I did that a few years ago and its so handy, but it needs a re-do I think.

*********************************

Right then, that is all for today or maybe this week, I never know if I am feeling up to anything, plus I need to rest up as my Mia will be 23 on Sunday and on Saturday we are BBQ-ing, well weather permitting, or it will turn into a buffet, I should think. Anyways, we will enjoy thats all that matters, just glad to be here, my gorgeous beautiful Mia means everything to me and I can't believe she is 23, my oh my...haha...

Thankyou so much for your time, hugs to all.

A tag and a card...get aload of me....lol

 

Good morning, hope you are all well and enjoying the Bank holiday sunshine, very unusual isn't it, I mean every Bank holiday ever is known for bad weather, lets make the most of it. :))

OK, so I made this tag from one I saw on my travels, please don't ask where, I am hopeless. Its made from four strips of paper, so great for using up old pieces. You just cross them over to create the shape and all those little pockets, I filled mine up with anything I could put my hands on just to see if it worked out, I think I like this idea and given more time it could be a real beauty.

It is abit wonky at the bottom but its a first try, I will fix that next time...I hope...

Next up is a card I began making awhile back but never finished.

I die cut the pattern in the paper from a TH die I bought forever ago,, love his stuff it last forever and never fails me.

All the bits and bobs are from books of  ephemera I keep on collecting and then forget I have so time to get cracking I thought. I layered it up on some black card to make it pop abit.

Side on, not added anything inside yet but you never know, or it may end up in my scrapbook.

Thats about it for now.

******************************

Health update, I had my appointment  with my consultant and I have the all clear for this particular cancer, I can't tell you how delighted I was, Carla was with me and we both almost burst into tears, just have to have  checks  every few months but thats no problem.

Now onto the 'Other' Cancer, keep me in your thoughts please and to the friends who have kept in contact with me and one who sent me a gorgeous card, Thankyou, you have no idea what it means to me.

Thats it once again, so glad you got here and had a browse on my blog, its been a big help at times I can tell you..

Tag along challenge tag.

 

Good morning lovelies, hope all is well wherever you may be. A bit chilly this morning but the sky is blue, so fingers crossed.

Made this tag for the challenge over at Tag along, the theme this time is add some Pink, well I don't mind if I do, must confess this was tag number two as number one was awful and it had to go.

Tag from my lovely friend Chris, used some pale pink ink to make the background, found some gorgeous satin pink ribbon,{which can barely be seen sadly } then added the lace on top, have had these little sticks in my stash for ages so dug three out and tied some pretty little flowers round, some of 'Tims' best word strips and a good old splash of black ink, string through the top and bobs your uncle, done

Tried to get a side on view, not great but OK.

That lace is really white so why it looks creamy is beyond me...

Obviously I am entering this into the Tag Along challenge HERE

Thats it for today, I am still looking for my journal book, it went walk-about when I first became ill and I have looked everywhere, its upsetting because I had so much in there and it was a book I made anyway, very odd, I just hope it turns up somewhere, but honestly, not that many places it could hide.!!!

Have a lovely day, thanks so much for any comments you may leave.
