Proverbs

I had a plan to do 'a stitch in time saves nine' and had all the bits and bobs ready and then I sat last night looking at my dear old man. Forty six years he's been in my life bless him and his name happens to be Jack, so then I thought...no contest! So here is my tag for - every Jack has his Jill!

I embossed a tag with a heart folder and then used Vintage Photo DI. then I found an old image of Jack and Jill and enclosed it in an ornate frame that I inked up. A red rose for true love, a wooden heart painted gold with a heart brad in the center, and then the words. Finished off with a rip of red sari silk. In honour of my Jack, who has always helped me carry my bucket of life!
Your proverbs are splendid, what a good theme this week, I am really enjoying looking at them all! x
