I'm back, after being away on a weeks cruise to Norway. This is my desk as of last night, I'm trying to complete a ink pad rack, I'm testing out different paint effects. plus a completed tag which I have entered into a challenge @ Dragonsdream TIO.
For the blog hop hop over to the lovely Julia @
Stamping Ground for all the details
This is a picture from Stravanger, 3 Norse swords
This is a building in the Art Deco town of Alesund. All the buildings were destroyed in 1913 and the town was rebuilt in the Germanic Romantic style. Fab buildings. Happy blog hopping and have a good day.
Ah welcome home - looks like you've had a fascinating week away. Love the colours you've chosen to experiment with.
ReplyDeleteThese tags look great, can´t wait to see them finished:) Happy WOYWW!

Liebe Francesca, I'm so glad you enjoyed your trip! Great pics :-) and your TAG is just awesome, saw it already the other day at the challenge. Congrats by the way to be chosen again for the vintage-flowers-texture one! :-) Your experiment looks very exciting, beautiful colors. Viele liebe Gruesse, Suzanne #49 *g*
ReplyDeleteFrancesca, you are so lucky to have been cruising Norway, we did it a few years ago and would love to go back.
ReplyDeleteI love that dotty effect on your turquoise paper and the tag, have you got a finished project in mind or are you just playing. Either way, enjoy!

Loving your holiday snaps, its so lovely seeing other parts of the world having not been there myself. I am interested in seeing your finished ink pad storage too, loving your color choice. Happy WOYWW! Danie #14
ReplyDeleteWelcome back and thanks for sharing the pics! I didn't know about the romantic German style, its gorgeous! And your tag is sure to be a winner, if its that kind of contest I mean. :) Thanks for stopping by and commenting on my explosion! lol I do love my sister, but do you know she isn't even the one who had to help with all the moving? My son is the one who helped! Let's just say she isn't his favorite aunt at the moment! lol :) ~Deeyll

ReplyDeleteGlad you had a good time away, it's many a year since I've been to Stavanger, we used to sail there then drive across Norway to nearly the Swedish border.
ReplyDeleteLoving your test background sheet especially the top right section.
Your tag is absolutely gorgeous.
Your tag and blue background page look great! Happy WOYWW (and thanks for your visit.) ~ Laura #131
ReplyDeleteI love the paint effects your getting, especially the cerulean blue. The photographs of your trip look amazing. Blessings!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the pics from your cruise which was a bit different to a week in the north east. Thanks also for the big smile I got from your comment on my blog.
ReplyDeleteHope we get to see the ink pad holder when finished.
