WOYWW #679 - ATCs

Only momentarily inspired by #1 on last week's index prompts list so made an ATC for "Asterisk". Used up an ink spotted paper I'd made ages ago and also found a stamped image of Great Britain so coloured that as I was in Jubilee mood.

Had a super Jubilee weekend and Hubby's first few days in retirement. Saw the Beacon up on Epsom Downs after badminton. Went for sunny walks in the quiet of the work day. Watched most of the Jubilee in TV. Saw "Top Gun :Maverick" on Monday, walked in the rain and got a few caches yesterday and I even went back to dancing last night.



Highlight was receiving an ATC and card all the way from Australia from Susan Renshaw with a Jubilee Stamp (not seen any here in the UK) and just noticed the post mark has the word "Connected" too!

How great is that!

I have also been learning a new harp piece for June, "Hallelujah". Hope I'll be able to get a good video of that one soon.


Happy WOYWW Everyone.

    Hi, back again! It’s all to do with junk journaling. You glue “tucks to the edge of the page creating an open pocket for putting things in, because the open side faces inwards you can “tuck” things behind. Quite often I put a dab of glue on the bottom edge for extra security. Angela #15

    Hi BJ, sounds like you've had a good week. The stamp is great too and I haven't seen anything like it here either. Hope Hubby's enjoying his retirement too. Wishing you a very happy and creative woyww, Angela x13x

    Hi BJ, sounds like you’ve had a good jubilee week and are even busier than ever. I know how hard you work on language learning and now you’re learning the harp as well!
    Take care

    You have a great deal going on in your life. It must be nice to have so many activities in which to participate. We are worried about our Covid levels rising in the states, so I'm staying home to keep from getting it, even though I've been vaccinated and boosted.

    What a fabulous card you colored. It is a beauty. I as able to see some of the Jubilee, but certainly nothing like you.

    This is the second time I've been without electricity in the past two days. That's why I'm so late visiting. Happy WOYWW from # 1.

    The only comment not to make my blog, but fortunately did come in via email (after hubby sorted Gmail as that had stopped too) was from Jan aka LLJ

    Just checked out the comments section in settings on blogger and there's one also from Cindy (neither on blog nor email) and the second from Jack too.

    Oh My BJ

    Thank you so much for the ATC and goodie bag, such a great idea for the trade and very generous of you. I’m sorry you haven’t received mine yet, how strange, yours seems to be the only one that hasn’t made it from a pile of 20. Bad luck. Im not in a position to at the mo, but will make up another when I finally sit at my desk! Meanwhile, you’re busy, glad you had a good jubilee weekend. I can’t wait to hear Hallelujah from your harp!

    Thanks for featuring my ATC and card...the 95th Birthday stamps have been out for a while here in Australia and this weekend we have a Queen's Birthday public holiday. The current stamp is a picture of the Queen to celebrate the Jubilee. I must try and send you a photo of it...
    Happy WOYWW!
