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 #815 - Scrapping Resumed

After a 4 month hiatus, now leaving me nearly a YEAR behind, I have got back to my scrapping.

On my desk are the rest of my 60th Birthday photos pending scrapping and I'm 61yrs next month - oh my word!

I finally received my prize from the Zen retreat all the way from the USA.

They are magnets used for sewing and jolly useful for appliqué work and for holding your needles & pins safely whilst you are sewing. Came after I'd finished my skirt though!

I did a couple of journal pages. Using some more of the words I had printed. 

Also a quote I'd scribbled down a while back which caught my attention then and now my mood. 

Then to the scrapping. Please note these are from over a YEAR AGO. So New Year 2024!

I'd come unstuck with these back in September so pretty simple pages to get me going.

I got more adventurous with my friend's Hen-Do page and even did a bit of journal type stuff on the facing page.

Wet glue not great on scrapbook papers though!

Then to the Wedding day itself. I copied the floral arrangement with diecut flowers.

One more wedding page and then my 60th. I have a few more photos for last February before I need to order some more.

Feeling a tad better this week actually made myself go out in the car Monday, first time in a week. Thank you for all the best wishes last week so very much appreciated.

Happy WOYWW Everyone.
