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 #457 - Fairy Card

Seem to have a plethora of card requirements this month and my card box is decidedly empty.

Managed to sit at my desk earlier in the week and made a start.

One for a friend's son's 19th birthday today.
One for Mothering Sunday.















Both of those cards are already in the post. So on my desk is just the fairy one I made up from the freebie die I got in January. About time too!

Hopefully I'll get some more done today. Sitting for long is still irritating my back but I have been OKed to drive and actually went to church on Sunday and Asda yesterday! Things are looking UP!

Happy WOYWW Everyone.

Good progress missus, glad to hear it. Pretty cards indeed..you reminded me to take stuff for Mum today, we visit on Wednesdays and one other day, so it might not be a good idea to leave them behind today! So glad you're making some desk time, it all helps to make you feel more 'normal'!!

Hi BJ, good to hear you are managing to be more mobile. Just take things steady, you don't want to push yourself backwards. Love the cards, beautiful colours. Our Range only opened last year, it's not as big as some, but they do have a great range of craft & art stuff. Previously, our closest was in Kidderminster, which is about 45 minutes away, so only went rarely.Have a lovely week, Hugs, Shaz #4 XxX

Hi BJ, good to see you are at least a little bit better and more able to do things again ... your cards are lovely. Being able to get out and about again will surely do wonders for you - just don't do too much. Have a good week. Elizabeth x #27

Great looking desk and beautiful cards this week. I need to make some more cards this week cause I have absolutely no birthday cards in the box. I think I gave them all away in a box I donated recently. Thanks for visiting my desk earlier. I really had a lot of fun at the paint party! Vickie #32
