I did, however, get inspired by the Etched By Faith Scripture 52 Project. It's a ring book to be filled with cards each week for the whole of 2023 with a freebie download each month and videos of Jade doing her cards each week.
What you can see in my desk photo is the sum total of my craft space in the corner of my bedroom, and I can't easily access the top shelf either! No matter...
The jewel butterfly yet another gift - sigh.
In the pocket is a die cut notecard from the "Kraft Crazy" stash I got over the Summer, I'd just cut a few out for my scrapbooking journaling and it was just the ticket.
On this I wrote out the personalised scripture (using I and Me) and pondered it's meaning for me.
On the back is my take away from this time of crafting.
Looking forward to this book growing each week in 2023 and looking back at it this time next year.
One activity taking my time this past week has been setting and finding Geocaches. Having to dodge the rain and go when it's dryish is the order of the day this January.
Hubby and I have published 2 new caches and are awaiting permission to do a third. It all started when we came across a Coal Post which was crying out for a cache placement.
The other thing was brightening up the garden so I popped along to our local garden nursery and got a few plants.
Now that's certainly an improvement, and planted in light rain too! As well as the little window box here, I did 2 hanging baskets and 3 wall boxes, a pot and little front garden corner. Could have done with twice as many plants really - LOL.
Must get back to my scrapping, now I'm in receipt of a job lot of Herma refills for attaching my photographs. The pending pages are at the bottom of the pile of paperwork on my desk still!

Love the idea of 52 different scriptures to mull over and craft. I am doing a study on 52 names of God in the Bible... I may try and craft these as well although I haven't started. Happy WOYWW. Take care, Love & God Bless, Caro xxx (#12)
Sounds like you have a great plan for this year and look forward to seeing it develop. The garden looks lovely, very inviting as soon as the weather picks up you'll be out there. Wishing you a very happy and creative WOYWW, Angela x13x
Love the Etched By Faith Scripture 52 Project. How fun. and you have no snow ! Anything we have outdoors is buried....lots of snow here this year, but we needed the moisture for sure. Happy WOYWW and have a great week.
You have been busy! Making sense new geocaches is a good thing to do knowing that someone will have fun hunting them down!
Hugs LLJ 1 xx

Sounds like you've had a busy week!! I clicked through to the 'coal' post. Well, that went straight over my head. Hope your caching gets the go ahead. There is never as much as you think when you get home from the garden centre!! Be another month before I think about brightening up the garden - haven't been able to get out there for weeks and its so wet. Well done you for finishing your planters in the rain. Have a good week, love n hugs Cindyxx #8

The Scripture project looks lovely, it is very pretty.
Love that you have found the energy to do gardening - I have lost all my mojo and everywhere is a dumping ground. Must get to it and tidy up.
Hugs, Neet 5 xx
thanks for your visit - although the Princess of Wales conservatory was opened by Princess Diana, it is named after Princess Augusta Helen xx
Youve been busy again! Love the idea of the index card journal hanging on the shelf…in your line if vision whether you need inspiration or want to do some work on it. Good works in the garden, everywhere is so sodden, I’ve got a few bits of colour but really could do with a break in the rain to get out and reveal them from the dead and slimey winter foliage!
You have been busy. My Word for the year turned out to be “Presence” as well! I was reading about “mapping” for Bible Study. There were examples, but I am not convinced about the method. I am putting away the Christmas craft stuff today. I always feel a Lisa’s when the Chrtree and decorations come down. The room looks so bare! Hugs Angela #18
I meant to ask you why you keep your tree up till February 2nd?
Thank you for reply - I hope you didn’t think I was too nosy 🙃. Apparently (according to one internet page) in medieval times they did leave the tree and decorations up till Candlemas. Traditions seem to change over the years 😊
