Tims tag february

Hello Lovelies - how are you? I'm good and have spent most of the day in my village - the village institute is in a bit of financial trouble and we had a meeting today to discuss a proposal to get more money via council tax. Most people seemed to be in favour which is good. I really hope we can manage to save the building - it really is a fabulous facility. I've also been for a walk and the vicar came around this afternoon - we had a chat about putting Shaun's ashes in the graveyard at the church. Then we discovered that Shaun and the vicar went up to Oxford at the same year! Small world isn't it!


This is my timholtz12 -tags-of-2015-february entry. I followed most of the instructions that you can see if you click the link although I chose to do a UTEE heart rather than a sewed one - personal preference!


I love this heart and rarely use it! The mould is a WOW powders mould and I used Cosmic shimmer UTEE.



I really enjoyed making this one and again have made reference to my lovely Shaun throughout.

I would like to enter this into timholtz 12-tags-of-2015-february.

I hope you have had a good day! Will be around soon to see what you've been up to!

Big Hugs

  1. Rachel, when I quickly read the little bit of your blog on my dashboard and saw financial trouble I thought oh no not another worry for you. But then realised its the villiage building, thank goodness. I hope you can't get it solved. Yes it's a small world at times isn't it. It will be nice if you csn have Shaun's ashes scattered at the church, would they maybe let you plant some bulbs near the spot? Just so it's like a little marker? Hazel xxx

  6. Good evening Rachel,
    I love your beautiful Tag.
    Unfortunately our village hall did not survive even with all the fundraising. Hopefully you will be more fortunate, good luck with your fundraising.
    Hugs for all of you

  8. This is a beautiful tag Rachel, love your version. The gorgeous UTEE heart is a beautiful centre piece, very detailed. I haven't used my Melt Pot for so long I think I have forgotten how.

  26. So happy that you had a good & productive afternoon, and are getting some of the necessary tasks done. I'm sure the nice walk helped to clear your mind a good bit too. Love this tag. THat heart is just phenomenal. I had bought one of those molds and the powders, but not tried it as yet. This heart looks like beautiful rose coral and is stunning on this pretty tag. TFS & Hugs
