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 #718 - Lagging Behind Somewhat

Everything was going so well then for some reason I just got mighty tired. 

Kept thinking I was coming down with something but nothing has materialised thank goodness.

Still don't feel quite right though???

Anyway I'm a bit behind with the regular stuff. 

Didn't go to dancing last night (again) so started off by making a birthday card for my Godmother.

I then did my Scripture52 card. I mean next week's will be on Thursday so I needed to get a wiggle on.

The 2 cards fit in the pocket on the back made with the folded back book page.

My Lent Bible painting printable is still sitting on my desk as the next thing to catch up on.


However I was compelled to do a water themed Bible page and did a waterfall, following this video on Saturday afternoon and shortly after my friend rang .....

.....and to cut a long story short I went to an Induction of a new minister in training and their church's verse is about the water flowing from God's house.

I have had 2 more reading sessions as well and spent some time researching books and activities and making powerpoints/games etc. Bit of a learning curve but getting there.

So that's me for the week.


Happy WOYWW Everyone.

I used to love using Powerpoint but guess I wouldn't have a clue now what to do. Good luck with it, once you are in to it I can see you will love it.
Lovely card and the waterfall page is lovely too.

Oooh, I hope that nothing is lingering waiting to make you poorly, perhaps just good old fashioned cumulative tiredness. Fingers crossed. I really like the pocket fold for the text cards for the Scripture 52 makes, clever, useful and pretty. Win win!

Hi BJ, I'm sure you'll be feeling more like yourself soon. I have feelings like that sometimes and it never comes to anything. Try to get plenty of rest and don't worry about getting behind with stuff it can all wait. Wishing you a happy and restful woyww, Angela x10x
