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.

WOYWW #367 - Updates & Harp



Not so much to show on my desk today so thought I'd pop my little harp on there as I have been having a bit of a harp week (see below).

Other than that there is a blank card awaiting inspiration for my husband's 60th birthday.



These are the crowns we made at preschool last week.

I wore my example one for the whole session, and I helped all 23 children make their own one too.











The sunflower has grown a lot, even more since I took this photo! Must pot on the little ones.












Scrapping of the last of my birthday photos.
I used up a 12x12 paper which had a circle cut from it so filled the space with a piece of plain card which itself wasn't quite big enough and I had to gut that for the embellishments!













I also made some harp threading cards for preschool as I am taking my little harp in to show them for music week tomorrow.


Happy WOYWW everyone.

Thanks for your lovely comments....I grew up looking at Worms Head, literally. My house was not far from the beach in Pembrey so that's a very familiar sight. I love Rhossili, is that where you're from?

Aren't preschoolers a fun group to teach.... I am sure the harp will be a hit during music week.
