I had a Notion!

Hi everyone! I don't know how but doing nothing is making me more tired than usual. The weather is certainly warmer and with hubby's help I have managed one or two cafe visits and to do some shopping. I have my Fracture boot on and use a stick as walking aid but I still feel safer holding on to hubby. It's good to sit with my feet up without my boot on, only thing is when I take it off I have to remember to gather everything around me before I do so!!!

I made this page for Halle's Art Journal Journey theme 'I've Got A Notion' last week but getting on to the computer is another matter! I did sit at my table to make this though. I did think I would get it posted before now!


I made a card some time ago that didn't get sent so I have used it as part of my page. The background is an old paper dress pattern - I stamped a larger image of the Tim Holtz dress dummy and added some extra word stamps. 

Thanks for looking, Chris

    Glad you are getting out a little bit and able to craft with your foot up. It's not easy to do with the issues, but well worth it. Pretty page. :)

    Healing takes time...it can be so frustrating.
    I love that you used the beautiful card as part of your page. It is really quite lovely.

    I am in AWE of this wonderful entry you have given us. The TH dress dummy was great and repetition is always a good thing. This is a super entry for Halle's theme at AJJ.

    I was glad to read you had a chance to get out a bit, even with tha boot. I hope you heal soon, dear friend.
