I have developed a penchant for tags, grungy tags. I came across an image on the internet that I think best describes me. Here it is ~ Having said that...here are more tags that I have been making in utter oblivious obsessiveness.... I Love using Tim Holtz's distress inks and am trying hard to apply new techniques each time. At the moment i have only 3 up my sleeve. Distressing the edges, blending colours and water blotching with different colours. By the way, if this all sounds like the beginnings of a craft blog rather than an ongoing food blog....you may be  right. I think its beginning to be one. I have also ditched my DSLR for my mobile phone camera. The DSLR unofficially belongs to R now. I think. Even more so for his next semester. This all started (the crafting I mean) when I bought a few paper craft tools to make favours for N & J's wedding later this year. I had stictched some linen and lace pouches and crafted some other things. I will not be posting them until...

Hi Everyone...if you're still there...remember me? Sorry for the long absence.  But I've been crafting.  For a reason.  I hum when I craft. These are some of my excuses....... A cake card ....makes me want to make a wedding cake in this colour....draped with pearls... Dried paper roses made from cardstock ~ cardstock by K & Co...love them ~ Beautiful water colour bouquet cardstocks by K & Co. LOve the doily lace edging. I made it using the doily lace Martha Stewart punch... i love punches ~ A 'letter card' .....I love old world scripted backgrounds ~ A grunge style tag ~ flowers made from pages of a vintage book...and used a bird cage stamp that is so cool and elegant ~ Now this I love....a vintage insipred Thank You tag. Flower was made from pages of a vintage book  The end ~ This requires no washing up ~ ;) PS ~ All photos were taken using my mobile phone...do excuse the poor quality..
