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, plus any cards as required. As my Carpal Tunnel allows I am getting into yarn/fabric crafts with slow stitching and needle felting added to my list. I continue with my love of Watercolour and Bible Journaling plus Faith/Art Journaling with acrylics and inks. I completed my challenge to make an art journal page a day for my 60th year in 2024. My list of crafty exploits includes ATCs, Tags, Altered Books, Mixed Media, Décopatch, Knitting, Crochet, and Embroidery. 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. 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 Evangelical Church.

WOYWW #863 - Dressing Off

I think my side desk sums up my life right now... the box of bandages which I put on top of the dressing the past fortnight. 

Enter the new box with Vaseline and Epaderm for massaging onto the scar 5 times daily for.....ages. Plus the weights and squishy & hard balls for exercises.

My texture book and blue sausage are downstairs. 

The latter definitely my friend, so comforting on the scar, easier to roll over scar than with a ball. There is some kitchen sponge (without the rough bit) inside. I made it 4 yrs ago for my right hand recovery on the hand therapist's suggestion.

I have done a couple of watercolours in my Bible.

Plus a couple of pages to finish off my mini journal

One used up the window cutouts from my Rahab page from last week for the cross and the sacrificial alter.

I hadn't realised the foreshadowing of Jesus carrying his wooden cross with Isaac carrying the sticks for the fire.

I did an Artistic Advent page of Mary seeing the angel proclaiming the conception of Jesus.

The other mini page was for my word of the year for 2026. I got a Hebrew word from a group link

The word is Tikvah which means Hope rooted in Trust.

I used up a strand from my blue sausage and some vellum from the angels wings above as they didn't like wet glue (used staples here).

Happy WOYWW Everyone.
