Im hopping with Easter excitement!

Why you may be wondering? Did I get lots of Chocolate? Has the Easter Bunny worked extra heard at our house this year? No No No
My absolute favourite challenge blog (apart from those I DT for obviously tut)
Tag You're it is back! Hurrah! Hang out the bunting, wave your flags today is a day to celebrate! I could never bring myself to remove it from my fav blogs list and Im so glad I didn't as I wouldnt have known it was back (ok technically I would have found out from Pascale or Annes blogs anyway but that is beside the point LOL).
Anyway I have zipped up to my craft room and produced a tag for the challenge this week which is "on a bough".
Used my Adirondack inks citrus, lettuce, cloudy blue and sail boat blue for the back ground - flicked with water to distress. stamped with coffee and sepia archival inks and used various stampers anoymous stamps for the tag.
Boy has today been good! Ive struggled with the whole art journalling thing - I just dont like writing on the art Ive decided. Anyway I sat at my desk and picked up a large tag book I bought ages ago from afth. It then came in a flash they are perfect for me to journal on. Art on the front - write on the back. Its taken me a while but Ive got there in the end LOL. So I will share the fronts but the backs will be mine :0) Yay!
Get yourself over to Tag You're It and see the great DTs work- Im soooo happy they are Back!
