JOURNAL CALENDER (SEPTEMBER 2011)

Hi all,
I'm here today to show off my September pages,

My finished AUGUST page will appear as if by magic near the bottom of this post,


For those of you that are not in the know,
this challenge lasts the whole year,
you have to journal every day in the form of 12 monthly calender pages,
& then head over to the Kathryn wheel blog & link up your creation,
so Kate Crane & any one else can see what you have come up with,

If you like the sound of that? you can jump in at any time along the way,
so get cracking & head over HERE to check it out

Here's My September pages,
I love the colouring of these pages (a total fluke) not planned at all,
I love it when that happens, lol.


Here's the Distress inks I used for the blending,


Here's the stamps I used for the background,


Here's the finished background
(I stamped the boarder with Jet Black Archival ink)


Now for the fun part,
the embellishing,


The squares are again as the other months part of a TSV on QVC
bought ages ago (glad to put them to good use)
the days of the week are done on my computer,
as are the numbers (then punched out with a circle punch)
coloured with copic markers,

for SEPTEMBER I used letter tiles from a hang man game
purchased from a pound shop.
(I grunged them up with ink because they looked to new)

the lady & the heads on the left are cut from graphic 45 paper
as is the light bulb with wings,
the ladies on the right are stamped in coffee archival
using a stamp from the artistic stamper,

I seem to have filled the pages this time,
not much room to maneuver,
so I have actually stuck things down this month (lol)
my confidence must be growing (tee hee hee)

Now for my finished AUGUST pages,


I am finding It hard to find different things to right about,
because I am always doing the same things,
(work, sleep, food shopping, house work, washing looking after kids,etc)
so apologies for not being very interesting
for all you double clickers out there,
note to self, must try harder LOL

Anyway that's me for today,
have a creative day.
Thanks for stopping by,
back soon,

IT'S TIME TO DO THE BLOG CANDY DRAW for reaching 125 followers.

Hi all,
I'm here today to announce the winner of the
125 FOLLOWERS blog candy,


I had 23 comments,

I said if you put the picture of the candy
 in your side bar you would be entered twice.
 some of you commented twice to do this,
& some of you put your blog address in the same comment,
 So I have been through all the comments
& compiled a list of all the entry's,


(I made the list in word & then couldn't fathom
how to get that onto my blog
so I printed it off & then took a picture of it)
If any one out there knows how to do it
Please get in touch, xxx

I used the random org thingy to generate the winner,
but again I could not for the life of me,
work out how to get the picture onto my blog,
so again I took a photo of it on my screen & done it that way,
so I hope it's clear enough,

OK SO HERE GOES,
THE WINNER IS,


According to my list that makes,

JOLANDA

The winner of the
125 followers blog candy,

Well done to you Jolanda,
UPDATE, JOLANDA HAS CLAIMED HER PRIZE,
& IT'S WINGING IT'S WAY TO HER.
please Email me at
with your address, & claim your prize,
YOU HAVE TWO WEEKS TO GET IN TOUCH
otherwise the prize will be drawn again,

I am away 22nd - 28th Aug
so please bear that in mind
when you email me.

So a big thanks to all you lovely people that entered,
& for your continued support,
in my crafting adventure.

I now have 137 followers,
once I get to 150 I will do another
blog candy Draw,

On a personal note,
I am still looking for my mojo,
but once the kid's go back to school,
my blog should resume normal service
I will start creating again (hopefully) ROFL

Have a grate day
Thanks for stopping by.

Back soon,

JOURNAL CALENDER (AUGUST 2011)

Hi all,
I'm here today with my AUGUST page,

& to let you know,I HAVE A SMALL GIVE AWAY (it's in the left side bar)
click the pic to leave a comment in the right place to enter.

My finished JULY page will appear as if by magic near the bottom of this post,

For those of you that are not in the know,

this challenge lasts the whole year,
you have to journal every day in the form of 12 monthly calender pages,
& then head over to the the the the the kathrynwheel blog & link up your creation,
so Kate Crane & any one else can see what you have come up with,

If you like the sound of that? you can jump in at any time along the way,
so get cracking & head over HERE to check it out.

OK here it is,
I think this page looks all summery,



Here's what I used for the background,



Here's the stamps I used,
The butterfly & flower were the free cover stamps
from Craft Stamper Magazine,


& this is the finished background,




I thought this page didn't need much
embellishing, because of the heavy boarder,
I coloured in the pattern & the flowers with copic markers.


The squares are again as the other months part
of a TSV on QVC bought ages ago (glad to put them to good use)
AUGUST is stamped  with an alphabet onto scrap card
& coloured with copic markers
the days of the week are done on my computer,
as are the numbers (then punched them out with a flower punch)
I used a Zig pen & white gel pen to doodle round the squares.

There's no room for anything else so I have
actually stuck things down this month (lol)
my confidence must be growing (tee hee he)

Here's my JULY page filled in & stuck down,


apologies for the fuzzy pic's
my son has messed around with my camera,
(tut, tut, tut) not sure what he's done,
I have tryed to correct it, but no joy.

Well that's about it for today,
Don't forget to check out my candy
for reaching 125 followers
