Blink...

...hurrah and thrice... I can!! Blink that is. Yes, my eye is better... well, it is still a bit prickly but nowhere near as bad as it was. Phew!! To celebrate the return of my vision, I set about altering a plain old A5 Journal... tis my day for Bubbly Funk so... all the deets are HERE if you would like to see how I did it :O)) Here's a snippy little piccy... Check out that font in the frame... I lurve it... tis called This Charming Font and I have had it for yonks but never tried it before, I shall be using that one again!! Oh and of course, the gorgeous Studio 490 flowers and leaves... they are the best aren't they!



Cor, I am as hot as a badger **I know, we wouldn't normally think of badgers as being hot but most things I liken to an animal of some description and badgers always seem to be favoured... on account of me thinking that they are cute!** today... tis time for the old towery-whizzy-fan-thingy-wotsit to make an appearance in the Room of Stash... I am seriously thinking about investing in an air cooler for in here... tis at the back of the house so it gets the sunshine all day, which is nice because it makes the room lovely and light and airy... but it also makes it very hot and stifley.



Anyways... this post should have been called Blink & You'll Miss It... because... that is all from me for today, I know, I know, I usually waffle on alarmingly for hours on end but you see, it's imperative that I get my old carcass moving because... Mr Mojo is here... I am whispering just incase I scare him away.. so, I will strike while the iron is hot and get cracking on some inky projects! Thanks for looking... have a fabby Friday! TTFN

Take A Note Please.....

Morning!

Tis a lovely sunny day here...let's hope it stays like it cos we have had enough rain to last us now :O))

I got a bit inky and messy the other day...and my hand really is improving...to the point that I could get inky fingers and no pain! Yay...looks like it was a success!

I bought some little notepads aaaages ago, you know, like you do.... you see them in the bargain bin and think that you will alter them...one day..... Well, "one day" was Tuesday and I decided enough was enough, all these alterables sitting about, neglected...




I cut some cream cardstock and used Distress Inks to colour the background, using a Mini Mask on the way, spritzing with water, stamping and overstamping...making a little bookplate using the Slice and generally enjoying the inkyness of it all. The stamps are Tim Holtz collection except for the "Look Inside" which is a Catslife Press one.




I added a few tied bits of ribbon to the ringbinder, trying to cover up the little gap at the top of the card!

Thanks for looking, have a lovely day whatever you are up to.
