But right now I'm on A Vintage Journey, and it's my turn to share what's going on at Destination Inspiration. As you know, for this weekly spot at A Vintage Journey there are specific items in our luggage, and over the course of a month each of four Creative Guides uses those items to create some fuel or further inspiration for the journey. Here's a little taste of what I got up to...
This month it's been a lovely bagful - Walnut Stain as the colour, texture paste through a stencil as the technique, watercolour paper as the substrate and a Tattered die as the product to use - we clearly packed very well between us. You've already seen three of the Creative Guides unpack their luggage and work some magic, and if you hop over to A Vintage Journey now, you can see some more of my offering.
I hope it will provide some fuel for your creative journey! Happy crafting all!
One's destination is never a place, but rather a new way of looking at things.

Alison...just back from hopping over to see your gorgeous vintage tag. It truly is lovely. I love the Walnut Stain base and the embossed letters are very cool with their dry brushed effect. Love your collage and those gorgeous cabbage roses. Thanks for the wonderful tutorial and the link to Jennie's tutorial for the roses! I need to try them!
Popped over to A Vintage Journey to see all the glorious details. So much texture and layering on that wonderful Walnut Stain backdrop -- you never cease to amaze me with your creative details. -- Mary Elizabeth
I finished my workout over an hour ago so when I felt my heart rate picking up rapidly, I knew it had to be the scrumptious textures and eye popping embellishments you'd created. Cryin' out loud.....this tag is a doozie. I LOVE it!! Also, thank you for the extra cardio workout...much appreciated. :)
hugs,
