About Me
- BJ
- 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.

Trees, Paths, Stools & Harps
Some more scrapping, firstly my husband up a tree getting a geocache back in May on our mini ramble which brought us out on Harps Oak Lane in Chipstead. Also the leveled path as last!
Then my harp stool in the making and me playing in the garden at home and in my lesson back in June. Got to use some lovely embellishments gifted to me from a craft friend too.
The little tag in the photo pocket is the photo which didn't "fit" and is of my first broken string in July.

Sweet Peas & Sadness
Gosh a whole month has passed since my last post, where did September go?
New College for our son so new routine, also tinged with deep sadness from a friend.
My first pages are from photos taken back in April.
Firstly, when my husband fixed us new kitchen taps. The old ones had been dripping for a while so we popped into Wickes and got some new ones which surprisingly were on special offer, we found out at the checkout.
Secondly, photos of our Bible Study group. The close up shows the emblems of Canada and America befitting our leaders.
My next pages are of my Sweet Peas which were a birthday present from a friend.
I dedicate these pages to my friends' little girl, Lucy, who died suddenly on 22nd September 2015.
I only knew her on Facebook but the adventures she had in her short 5 years were a delight to share.
RIP Lucy Ceri Smith.
