Over the Seas and Far Away

Here's a project I'm sharing over on the eclectic Paperie blog today. Taking centre stage, is a photo of my dad when he first came to England. If you'd like to see how I put it together, hop over to the eP blog http://eclecticpaperie.blogspot.co.uk/ and all will be revealed. As I've used lots of Tim Holtz products, I'm also going to enter this into a brand new challenge  blog, rather aptly named  'A Vintage Journey'. Their first challenge is called 'Anything Tim' and I think this may just qualify.... So there you have it, two places to visit today. Hope you get chance to have some inky fun this weekend ! x

    This is superb Toni and I am so thrilled you are joining us over at A Vintage Journey with it. Is it just me or is your dad sporting a seriously cool Pharrell hat there! Jenny x

    What a brilliant tag Toni and a fabulous photo of your Dad. It has a very apt theme with your Dad having made his travels to England and it's full of wonderful ephemera. Thanks for travelling on A Vintage Journey with us xx

    Your tag is just fabulous Toni, I love the photo of your Dad and the wonderful story behind it too (similar to my Dad but he went from the UK to Canada!). Thanks from me too for joining us at A Vintage Journey. Hugs, Anne xx

    Hi Toni, life's so busy for me at the moment that I don't get round to visiting as often as I'd like, but I've grabbed a few moments to say what a great tag I think this is! It is about a vintage journey on so many levels, a true work of art! Your dad looks incredible, a superb focal image and all the detail is lovely. Julie Ann xxx

    Absolutely magnificent, Toni! I love the photo of your dad, and brilliant use of all the papers, stamps and ephemera to capture the flavour of that momentous journey... Fabulous vintage look - I absolutely love it.
    Thank you for joining us on A Vintage Journey.
