In The Garden


 It's time for a new challenge at Try It On Tuesday and this time the challenge theme is "In The Garden"

For my DT piece I've done another page for my  7x7 journal, inked and stamped background and then bits and pieces from my stash of saved " junk"  the main picture is from some Liz Earl packaging, the flower pictures and word were salvaged from my neighbour's recyling box and were from flower delivery packing which she received every month( lucky lady!)no idea where the watering can bit came from. I had spent the afternoon altering a pair of trousers for my husband so while the machine was out I finished the page of with some stitching.  

The design team have lots of lovely inspiration for you over on the challenge blog a I hope you will pay them a visit and join in our challenge.

More Journal pages


 I’ve been saving mop up kitchen roll paper for a long time, often think the mop up looks better than the piece I’m working on, however I decided it was time to use some of it. Each piece has three layers so I get three almost identical piece from each piece of paper towel, I used two pieces as the base for two pages of my journal but then ended up almost covering them up by the time I had finished decorating the pages. The pink and green bits round the edges are all that can be seen of it๐Ÿ˜€
