While we were away I called to Rowan Tree Crafts in Carnforth!
No, it's these, out of stock for so long but now MINE!!!
When I called in last week I mentioned to Sharon that I was looking for some and Yay!….she had ordered some!
So, on Saturday after picking them up it rained…
Part of the background was there in my journal already - I added stencilling, stamping, some scraps(yes, I have a couple of scrap bags there too!)and I gave my little dancing girl some wings!
I would like to enter at Moo Mania and More where the theme is 'Dancer'
I hope that this entry is acceptable at Art Journal Journey for Gil's theme of Elegance and Grunge - with only three days to go I am hoping to get one more page done!
If ever you are headed up the M6 to the Lake District and need more crafty supplies (they sell lovely gifts and cards too) it's not so far off Junction 35 to call in at Rowan Tree (whose blog is here) - it's near to Booth's who have an excellent cafe there too!
Hoping to get a catch up done soon, once again the internet connection has not been reliable!
Thanks for looking, Chrisx

Wonderful journal page Chris. Glad you found loads of goodies, have fun playing. It' still 33° degrees here this evening, I hope it rains tomorrow! Have a great day, hugs, Valerie
Love your page Chris, love the paper dolls and really love Sharon's shop!! Hugs, Anne xx
Great page, and glad you got your hands on the dolls! I have yet to use mine but I must say the bag is crammed full, very impressive.
What a perfect way to spend a rainy day and your little dancer with her wings is beautiful! I've just spent some time looking at Rowan Tree Crafts website, thanks for sharing the link :-) . Wishing you a great week! J :-)
Terrific page and great that you got more goodies to play with
Love Chrissie xx
I love those TH cut out people. Glad you found them, and you certainly made a fantastic page with them. I bet we'll be seeing a lot more of them in the near future. :) Erika
A fabulous background, perfect for the ballerina paper doll, a great rainy day playtime Chris xxx
I got my little dolls on sale, but I think yours and Erika's are different from mine. I have 107 in my package, but there are sllight differences. I think mine are from a previous "run" and yours is from a new run. However, I totally love mine, so I know you are going to love yours as well.
I've seen people have those oxides, but i haven't seen them here yet. So glad you have most of them, now.
Your ballerina post is incredible, and you met two challenges in the process. I adore this latest journal entry. Love your photos, too!
wowowo, your page is absolutely gorgeous.
Thank you for joining us at MOO MANIA & MORE
Thanks for the idea of what to do with my bag of figures from Tim. Certainly, if ever I am in the area of this shop I will definitely call in.
Hugs, Neet xx
Oh wow your page is really stunning Chris.
I love your dreamy grungy background as along with the lovely girl that has made it magical. I must get those TH people! - haven't got the patience to print and cut out my own ancestors ha ha :)
Thanks again for linking to AJJ I appreciate it.
We've certainly had a mix of weather lately haven't we and doesn't look like its over yet either.
Hope you have a great day... Gill x
Hey Chris - such a very attractive page and I love the background. I am really into backgrounds lately. I really like seeing what people have don and I do love your colors.
