About Me

My photo
Hi, Welcome to my Blog. I'm an eclectic kind of crafter delving into many pots. I am just about managing to keep up my Scrapbooking Diary (usually about 6 months behind), plus any cards as required. I have a new found love of watercolour and Bible Journaling plus recently Junk Journaling too. Previously I've also dabbled in ATCs, Tags, Altered Books, Mixed Media, Art Journaling, Décopatch, Knitting, Crochet, and Embroidery amongst other things. I live in Surrey, UK with my husband, our son has left home now. For exercise I usually play Badminton and go Ballroom and Latin Dancing, but am plagued by a bad back. I like walking which I couple with Geocaching and sometimes Bouncing on my Rebounder (mini trampoline). I guess I am officially retired now. I am a born again Christian, currently worshiping at my local Vineyard Church.

Alpha Challenge #04 - Hanukkah

The letter over at the Craft Barn's Alpha Challenge this time is H, and continuing with my Special Occassions theme I have done the Jewish Festival of Hanukkah. This festival usually falls around Christmas time, which is jolly handy if you ask me.
I have made the Menora candle holder the main focus and the definition for the festival is from the internet, as would you know it, neither of my two dictionaries had it!

Now we wondered what word you would choose for your themed pages this time. We couldn't think of any festivals beginning with H, apart from the hunny eating festival which pooh attends 365 days per year! Really love both ypur chosen word and the way you've illustrated it.
