Made with love


 Tuesday  is  T day over at
where we are always made very welcome with a drinks related post.

I used gesso on this kraft journal page, adding some of my favourite go to stencils.
The colouring are shades of distress oxides.
I also added some washi  tape strips..
 The tag was made separately and watercoloured  before I added it to the page.
I was gifted the sweet mouse stamp and I love it.


My  tea photo today was  taken in one of our large super store cafe's. A welcome stop before our journey home , after doing the Christmas grocery shop. OH had taken the picture on his phone and I  forgotten  he had, until he asked if he could delete it. ' Not until I get a copy',  was my reply. That was a very good cuppa of my favourite brew.


Thank you all for calling in  I hope you have a lovely day.


I will also link my page to the challenge theme at
the theme is Anything goes or/New.
Thank you Annie for letting me know about this theme.

  1. That's such a cute mousey stamp, Yvonne - love how you've used it and it's perfect for T for Tuesday - even if it is Monday, lol. I have to point out that I Had to check which day it was when I read that - duh! Thankfully, it's below this on my laptop screen ;-)

    Love your background, btw - great colours and lovely stencilling.

  8. My friend Theresa (with the pink hair) loves the House Mouse stamps. She would LOVE these mice with their cup of tea (I don't have to ask, I know you). You colored them perfectly, too. SO glad your hubby didn't delete that photo, because it, and of course, your gorgeous mice, are perfect for T this Tuesday.

  9. i imagine the mice are having some hot chocolate with cream (well, the whipped cream already licked away) - that would be perfectly fitting the weather here;)
    have a cozy happy t-day:)

  11. I'm loving your page, blue is my favourite colour and those little mice are so sweet! The stencil is wonderful, I can see why it's one of your "go to" ones, I'll have to look out for one like it for my wish list ...lol 😉. Such a great cuppa and teapot too! Thanks for the inspiration and wishing you a very happy T Day! J 😊 x
    p.s. seems like your diary last year was such a success, so many people were inspired by your pages and are doing something similar this year! I so enjoyed seeing your pages too! Well done, you are such an inspiration - Happy 2019! Jo x

  12. The House Mouse page is darling, Yvonne. The background is beautiful. Thank you for your comment on my blog. You're my comrade in arms (grin). Yes my neck and shoulder get sore if I'm out of the sling too long. I've been using a plastic glove - the kind that come in hair dye kits - when I need to wash dishes or work with wet media. A bag would be a better idea for some tasks. So thank you for that tip.

    Happy T-day! 1-armed hug, Eileen

  13. Love the adorable mouse stamp. (I had never seen that one) and the handwritten quote. It is true.
    The cafe cuppa looks just the ticket. Just the thing for the T party.
    Happy T-Day,
    Lisca

  15. LOVE your mousy page, but then I adore the House Mouse collection.
    I still have quite a few, wonder if they will still stamp at such an old age???
    Happy T-day

  16. Love all the blue, Yvonne, especially...are those fabric strips or washi tape that looks like fabric strips. Yummy! Also confused...OH? We use DH in the states for Dear Husband. I assume you are referring to yours and further assuming he's not Odd, bwahahahaha, Odd Husband, OH I Crack Myself Up, solitary confinement would have no effect on me, heehee. Have a good one! xoxo
