Journal Pages and a Tag

Hi everybody, hope you have all had a good weekend and are all fit and ready for the start in the new week. We had a quiet and fun time here, so I am ready for all the treatments that will be waiting for me this week.

I used different colours for my journal pages this time, but I must say that there are other colours I like better. Let's see what colours jump at me next time!




The tag is my DT piece for the new challenge over at *The Cheerful Stamp Pad*, where the theme this week is *Love is in the air*. I have made a vintage style tag with lots of Victorian roses, cupid etc.


Have a good day you all, take care, and thanks for visiting!

I love Green and find your colour combination exciting but perhaps it does not work as well as some others for your style!

Gorgeous Love in the Air tag. XOXO Zoe

Cupid reminds me of the scraps I used to collect as a child. I like the I love you ticket too. x

What a gorgeous tag Valerie, love the abundance of roses. Colours are a bit more 'grungy' in your journal but you still manage to bring the pages to life with your drawings and collage. Happy Monday! Suze xx

I'm really enjoying the way you've been including profiles into your journal pages- such a nice touch! And of course, you should know that I love your beautiful tag- I Love ALL your tags!
Happy Monday Hugs,

Again, some great journal pages - not my favorite color combination either, but it's all about experimenting, right? Is it yellow over black or gray? Instead of looking cheery (yellow), it looks kind of gloomy so it would be a good combo to use if that's the feeling or weather you're trying to depict. (my lowly opinion, of course)

Lovely vintage tag! The yellow background is more subdued I think.

Marjie Kemper said...

Very pretty. I love those long green winding ribbon pieces you've painted vertically. Good luck this week.

Love the Victorian tag. You always inspire me with your journal pages. I've just started a mini album--we'll see how it turns out.

Joanna said...

It's funny how some colours 'sing' more to us than others isn't it? I particularly like the background to these journal pages, and the cute image in the corner, too sweet!

Your tag is perfect for 'Love is in the Air'!

So now I am all caught up with Jason and Aunt Cissie. I am having a lot of fun reading the story of them. Guess if you didn't save AuntCissie any cake, you didn't save me any either?!
Hugzzzz and love,
