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 #194 - PINK!

Still going strong with my "A to Z of Me" Art Journal Challenge. Was quite poorly last Wednesday so didn't do a page that day nor manage to visit anyone who didn't visit me nor leave a number, and only later in the week at that! Still have a horrid cold but I battle on...

My desk has my latest page and we have got to "R" for Responsibilities (which I have just blogged so click to have a closer look if you like) I had alot of "run-off" ink quite literally so made the tag from that too.

You'll also see my Ferrero Rochet stencil box, just the right size (for now - LOL). Oh and the other side of this page was also pink "Q" for Qualities so you can guess what colours my fingers are now!

Anyway, hope you enjoy your snoop at my desk, and if you are at all confused.com as to what WOYWW is all about, pop over to Julia's gaff where all will be explained.

Hi BJ, this years "colds and flus" have been real bears. I have been sniffeling and coughing for two weeks, I think this is the second visit of this crud! I think your A-Z of Me book is such a cute idea.
Do hope you get to feeling better!
