Tag Tuesday -- School days

I am not running over with inspiration at the moment and I have lots of Sunday school work to prepare for twenty children, so I haven't been around that much although I have been creating, as I cannot live if I'm not being creative in some way or another!



This is my little tag for Louise's weekly tag challenge. Although the theme's may be hard, it's always great to be challenged to make something out of it. The background stamp which covers the whole tag is called 'A Village' from Hero Arts. It reminds me of the villages here and in Spain. So I guessed that somewhere inside of the Port there would be a school where these girls are headed for!
The two girls stamp is from Artistic Outpost. I also used some rub-ons that Louise sent me ages ago (you remember from your cruise) and the School Days template was from Sue Czozek. Also thanks to Leni from Holland who sent me the little paper butterflies for my birthday - I sponged them with distress ink.

This is another one:

See you soon.

  1. Such a gorgeous tag, Jacqueline. It's extra special because yu used things that several blog friends sent to you.

    I am doing the art activity for our SS for 3 Sundays. We are studying Genesis and in particular: the creation story. After hearing the scriptures and having a lesson the kids are dismissed to go to their activities. Mine is using God's paints (inks and dyes from plants). Check out my WP blog
