Here comes summer

 Well the time goes flying by and now its time for the new challenge at Try It On Tuesday, this time the challenge is " Here comes suumer".  We welcome all kinds of projects, cards, journal pages, atcs etc as long as the they follow the challenge theme.  The design team have some lovely inspiration for you over on the challenge site so I hope you will pay them a visit.

For my little card I have used an old Crafty Individuals stamp and the words from another of their seaside stamp sets, background done with distress inks.

Bugs, bees and butterflies

 The new challenge at Try It On Tuesday starts today and this time we are asking you to use book papers for your entry project. We welcome all kinds of creative crafts including cards, tags, atcs ,journal pages and anything as long as it follows the challenge subject.

I've gone for a journal page this time using a page from a very ancient Pears Encylopedia, it ws published in 1932 so at 92 years old is the same age as my husband LOL. The pages are nicely aged and surpisingly quite strong for their age, the actual book is falling to pieces so I've finally decided I can bear to pull it apart although I do find myself distracted actually reading the pages instead of getting on with it.

Hope you will visit the challenge blog and see the lovely samples from the design team.
