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 #396 - Happy New Year


Happy New Year Everyone.


Gosh, I've not blogged for 4 weeks but here I am again.

On my desk are some dies (bought/freebies).


My SWAP challenge this month is to make something with New Stash so hopefully I'll be able to show something before long.








I did make up the wooden owl last night which was a gift from a friend for Christmas.

Next to him is my Pokémon Squirtle toy from my son.

The "Lush" album is awaiting the photos of my son and his new little car. My Mum bought him his lessons and the car so I'll be making the album for her. Not sure I'll manage it for her birthday on 11th though - come on Photobox

Happy WOYWW Everyone.

Great looking desk! Fun stuff to look at. My daughter told me about Wish.com for dies and craft stuff reasonable. She bought me the dies that are on my desk and she told me that they were only $1 each...I think I will have to investigate a little closer! Happy New Year! Vickie #12

It's nice to see you back! I'm glad you had a good Christmas, that little owl is adorable and definitely needs a name!
We are off to Wales on the 23/24th, back to the town where I grew up - Burry Port in Carmarthenshire. I know the mayals and the Mumbles well as my Mum's family came from there and Singleton :-D
