A couple of tags from the scrap basket.. updated

Just to let you know that I will be away for two weeks. I am going to Scotland with DH to a retreat to get refreshed and ready for a new season with our Missionary work and the Church. As leaders it is very important to take a break and we haven't had one for two years now, since I had my operation. I will be on-line now and again but won't be able to post.

So just sharing some little scrap tags:


I had a question about the template tag I used so here it is. It was a free download so I don't think the owner will mind me sharing it, so you can use it too.



I had lots of strips of blue PP which I put together on this download tag - added some lace trim from the Hero Hearts 'Remember' stamp your story set and added a couple of birds which I received from a friend. I distressed the birds and stamped with a leaf stamp.


I had the tag and masonjar in my scraps so to finish it off,  I stamped five flowers from the Remember HA set and arranged them with the vase. Two simple little gift tags.

Thanks for your continual support and encouragement. I just saw the Tuesday Trigger so I think I will be back before I leave!

  14. These are lovely, Jacqueline. I'm so happy to hear that you and your husband are getting to take a holiday - you surely deserve it. On another note, I somehow missed your cancer diagnosis and feel bereft about it. However, I am so very, very thankful that you are recovering. God has many more plans for you, I think!

  18. Jacqueline, have a wonderful time in Scotland - hope you both come back rested and recharged! Just wanted to say how much I love those little birds over-stamped - will be borrowing that idea!

  19. I hope your time in Scotland was restful and rejuvenating. I've always loved your style and its gentle sweetness. On the bird tag you mentioned that its a download tag - does that mean the French printing is part of that download design? Or is that a rubber stamp? I'd sure love to make something with that printing if you'd be willing to share where it came from! I hope you continue to be well and healthy and to share your beautiful art.
