Lets go Outside..... at TioT's

 


Lets go Outside.....
is the new theme over at
My digital journal page is all about the feelings of peace and tranquillity
 that that the country side gives to me,
 when I am beside the river
 or walking in the small wood and the fields beside my home on my way to the riverside.
Early in the day there is a silence broken by birdsong,
 later,  perhaps rowers practising for  future races and families enjoying a walk.
Please pop over  and see the way the everyone at TioT's has 
been inspired by the theme, all so different,
 we look forward to seeing how you interpret this theme.

Sing a Song...... at TioT's

Sing  a song 

is the challenge for the next two weeks over at

Try it on Tuesdays



 "We are Family.....

I got all my sisters with me".....

I have to admit I have used this song in the past as a  prompt for myself, needless to say it is a favourite song for me from a good few years ago.   My  cousin two weeks my senior   declares she is my older sister ,we even think alike about many issues.

We hope you will join us at

Pretty papers

 


The new new challenge over at Try it on Tuesdays is...

 Pretty Papers


I have added a few pictures of the papers I selected from my stored files, to create this digital card. I layered them up a few times to see  how I wanted to use them.


. A bonus for me with digital layers is that there is no need to stick anything down  and its so easy to move layers  with a click on the computer mouse.

  In the computer program [ notes in my sidebar]  I use.

 If needed,   I could have   even changed  the colours   so the papers would all compliment each other.

To my card  I added a digital floral image and a Birthday greeting.

Thank you for calling in to see me here today.

 Please  pop over and join us at TioT's

and see the pieces the team have created and shared  for this new theme.

We are looking forward to seeing how you use your pretty papers.

Use 3 Colours....... at TioT's.

 

'Use Three Colours'
is the new theme for the next two weeks over at

. Please pop over for all the information and  see  our Three Colour choices. 
  

I am still creating digital cards as these days I find it difficult to hold things 
like ink pads without loosing my grip and letting them drop onto the  card,
they have a nasty habit of falling onto the images I am  using, ink side down.
So digital is much cleaner and  safer for me just now.



I  do use photos of  my saved
 useable mop ups etc.
  Many of us. I'm sure 
 will have a pile of  these somewhere
 in our craft space,
 like this  stencil background.
 Hence my colour choice
  of shades of yellow and green 
with a splash of red.

Thank you for calling in to see me, 
I hope  you will join us at TioT's 
and share  your three colours choices  there.

Summer Blooms.......... at TioT's

 


Summer Blooms....

is the new challenge theme over at Try it on Tuesdays

A digital Birthday card from me for  today,

 this theme really appeals to me as I love to see  summer flowers, they always look so bright and colourful. This theme could be interpreted in many ways other than flowers. This was my take on it using digital images of flowers. 

We hope you will join us  and share your ideas, remember  you can use any materials,

mediums, styles etc as long as you use the theme.

Listen to the birds......... for TioT's

 


Birds and/or Feathers....
is the new challenge  for us over at
I have created a journal page in the digital program I use with....
' Birds',   as my focus  and of course birds have feathers
 so I am  covering both parts of the challenge theme..
The page began with a photo taken of a hands on background page

This was an embossed page, coloured with distress ink, as you can  see I was able to 
alter it to an oblong shape and change the shades slightly before adding the images....
to create the page for my digital journal.

Please pop over to see  the ways the folk over at TioT's 
interpreted this theme and get all the challenge information......
we look forward to seeing you there.

Make it Masculine.......... at TioT's

 

Make it Masculine ......

is the new theme over at Try it on Tuesdays

I have  created a digital journal page as I had  a bit of a back story  in my mind.

Dad decided to take his son Angus out for a day trip

 in the families much loved old mini car.

  [it only gets out of the garage on warm sunny days never in wet weather]..

They explored  and ended up down a narrow country lane,

 as they were deciding where to go next    the bird family turned up and asked for a lift .

Mother got a lecture about not damaging the paintwork on the car roof,

while the youngsters hurried to get on board.

I think dad will have  made a sharp get away in case any more family turned up.

A bit of a silly story but I know from experience and my family,   that men

can treasure old cars.

We hope you will share your take on this theme with us at TioT's

Please pop over to see what we made to share with you.
