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 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.

WOYWW #728 - 14th Anniversary

Oh my word 14 years of doing this blog hop, well I was 3 years later to the party and my, weren't there a lot of entries then, a whopping 185 the week I joined in - (14/3/2012 #145)! Think I'd been visiting a few weeks before then though.

Received my first SWAP "yesterday" from Christine, YAY - happy dance - thanks for the address too.


Anyway, I've made a few ATCs this year based on all the collage I have been doing with my #scripture52 cards, obviously a few are spoken for and some others have already asked to SWAP too, but if I have any left and you would like to SWAP do let me know in the comments. First come...

Happy 14th WOYWW Anniversary

My email for address exchanging is located on my profile, just click the link at the end of the "About Me" section.

Your ATCs are out of this world. They put mine to shame. I love the collaged images. They are so special and my kind of art, too. Happy 14th Anniversary from # 3.

Gosh I remember too when we reached over the 100 mark with comments. ~No chance of commenting on them all in those days, I was lucky enough to meet some of the WOYWW'ers who lived abroad too when I visited cha in America. Such wonderful memories, especially to renew friendships year after year.
Congratulations on the ATC's, sadly I have not done any but hopefully may as i get a little stronger.
Hugs, Neet xx 14

Your ATC’s are beautiful. I have been using the commentaries on the Internet for my Psalms study, so my Psalm study has been limited at this site, but yesterday my husband found if the phone was stood up in a particular place he got two bars!! I am sat on the edge of the bed getting my comments done. Last night we went to the pub for free Wi-Fi. I am not much of a drinker so he finished off my lager shandy. Angela #25 xx

Kyla said...

ooh lovely ATCs and yes, I remember back then when there were SO many bloggers but pleased to see there are still quite a few of us who still take part regularly, what an amazing community Julia (and Jan) created.
Thanks for visiting my desk already
