It has been such a long time

I don't know where the days and weeks have gone. It had been ages since I have spent some time in the craftavan. I really couldn't delay any longer, I was so behind with the weekly challenges, I had to try and catch up. Two tags and three inchies later, here I am with a few photos of the completed challenges.

Last week's theme at Tag Tuesday was WEDDING. Such a lovely theme, I should have jumped on that straight away, but I just wasn't in the right frame of mind. But yesterday, I finally made the tag with hours to spare before the new challenge was up.

I had this beautiful image of a very sad looking young bride and of course my imagination went into overdrive. Was she forced to marry somebody she didn't love? Was her beloved called away to war on the day of their wedding? What made her so sad? So instead of a happy couple I chose the sad young bride for the tag -

This week's theme is COMPLEMENTARY COLOURS and that had me way outside my comfort zone. I don't often use bright colours. What to choose? Green and red? No, I don't like primary red. Blue and orange? Yikes, no, I dislike orange a lot. That left yellow and purple. I managed to find a few purple and yellow bits in my stash in the craftavan -

A yellow bird, a purple butterfly, a yellow ribbon and purple flowers, all on a stamped purple background with deep purple swirlies.

And these are the inchies I should have made over the last three weeks -

For WILD I chose wild hair ( I do know somebody who had dyed her hair this fabulous shade of bluey green ) -

Next was EVIL, and the first thing which sprang to mind was this saying -

And yesterday's theme was GRAY. We are not having grey/gray day days at the moment, but I do remember them from a little while ago when we had plenty of thunderstorms. So the inchie had to be a gray day inchie with a dark grey cotton wool cloud and rain pouring out of it onto a grey landscape-

Just the photo for the Sunday photo word prompt to go, but I haven't done that one yet, bad me.

I am linking the first part of this post to the much loved Blissful Whites Wednesday party at Becky's TIMEWASHED blog. Do visit, you'll love all the gorgeous WHITE posts.

Thanks you all for stopping by, and I hope you have a wonderful week.
