Happy New Year Everyone.
If I was going to do a bucket list one thing would definitely be on it – a trip down-under to visit my great friend and crafting buddy Dot from Ink Art Designs.
Not in my wildest dreams did I think that this would happen.
Well 2017 is certainly going to be an exciting year for Andrew and myself as our Christmas present to each other is a trip to … Australia!!
Because of the long haul flight we decided to break it up with a four day stay in Hong Kong before flying into Melbourne. We will be staying with Dotty for nearly three weeks then the journey home will be broken again with a four day stay in Singapore.
Dot has already started planning all the exciting things that we are going to do but for me the highlight has to be the crafting retreat that she has booked us into at Cockatoo Downs Farm. Even the name sounds magical.
Shock horror is Andrew coming crafting with us???? Shouldn’t think so, he has to take care of Dot’s dog but did I fail to mention that she lives next to a golf course!!!!
My first piece of the year started with this tag and my idea was for it to go onto the first page of my new A5 Journal Book.
As usual off I went on a tangent – have problems with reigning in my thoughts when crafting – by the time I had finished the tag it didn’t fit in with my journal page.
Will show the journal page another time in the meantime here is a close up of the tag.
