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 Faith/Art Journaling too. I've challenged myself to make an art journal page a day for this my 60th year. Previously I've also dabbled in ATCs, Tags, Altered Books, Mixed Media, 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. I also like walking/Geocaching and sometimes do a bit of Bouncing on my Rebounder (mini trampoline). I have been learning to play the harp for the past 10yrs. I am now officially retired. I am a born again Christian, currently worshiping at my local Vineyard Church.

WOYWW #180 - Sheet Music

Hi there all you lovely WOYWWers. Here's my desk today. I little row of Christmas Cards, plus my pile of Christmas stash which keeps moving here and there!

My new mini wheelie bin for all my rubbish. Day 13 in my Art Journal over at "An Attitude for Gratitude".
Oh and finally the wad of sheet music I found at a local charity shop today. It was the first I had tried and couldn't believe my luck.  

So pop over to Julia's Place so you can see all the other desks and join in the fun.

Hi there. You've been busy with cards. Charity shops are a great source of stuff to alter aren't they? Always something different. I'm sure you will put the music to good use.

You look like you have been very busy with all those Christmas cards you have completed! Looking forward to seeing what you make with the sheet of music paper, I am sure it will be awesome though! waving hi from the hills of North Carolina :)

WOW awesome cards! I love the sheet music and it looks like some might be quite old. I went to cut up a book not long ago and found out it was worth over a $100 so sold it on eBay and bought more stash instead. I copied the pages I was wanting and that worked too. Have a great week and thanks for sharing. Vickie #62
