I've just got a sneak peek for you here, but I hope you'll be able to fly over and see the whole thing. Gotta fly myself now... happy crafting all! (How's that for a short post? Oh, okay, yes... there's more over at Calico - but for once that's quite short too!)
The best way of travel, however, if you aren't in any hurry at all, if you don't care where you are going, if you don't like to use your legs, if you don't want to be annoyed at all by any choice of directions, is in a balloon. In a balloon, you can decide only when to start, and usually when to stop. The rest is left entirely to nature.

Beautiful tag, love the background. I like the stamping and the Calico Craft Parts, too.
ReplyDeleteOh my! This is wonderful!
ReplyDeleteIt's a gorgeous tag, Alison! Not clicking on the links this time, as I spent lots last time I did that....!!
ReplyDeleteIt's a perty one!! I liked the before with the unaltered embellishments as much as I like them altered. For being busy, you still find time to make inspirations. Glad you got some time for you. I think it's lovely that you get to go to France for a little break. Here in Missouri, my little break and time for me consists of a locked door to the bathroom. I think I like yours better. ;)

Not sure I would be brave enough to risk a balloon journey but no one has ever suggested it YET!
Love Chrissie xx
