WOYWW #571 - A Week off Methinks

Not done much this week (other than the UFO I'll be showing next week).

Got some crafty goodies, a job lot of refills for my scrapbooks 75 in all.

A more "down to earth" Bible Journalling book with lots of traceables.

Plus some pens, a set of my usual uni-ball fine line in various sizes and a couple of Tombow Fudensuke Brush Pens.

Oh and don't mention the JIGSAW. My son got it for me for my birthday, back in February, and I've been saving the best till last!.

My old tablet cover had the same picture and of course I have a mug to match too...

I guess you could say, it's not the easiest of puzzles!




I've done a few odd hand sewing jobs like my slippers and oven glove but not at all easy when your right hand goes tingly/numb all the time. That has just started up again so even typing this is tricky. Couple that with my left shoulder/arm issue I have had for nearly a year now, it's a right pickle.

Also I got some material delivered from friend (as part of her click and collect supermarket run) to make scrubs and bags with but not started yet.

So not overly exciting this week. Bet you can't wait to see what my UFO is! Wondering if all that set my hand tingling off?? Who knows, my thumb was well sore after I'd done two of the 4!

Happy WOYWW Everyone.

WOYWW #570 - A Bit of Both

Yep some Scrapping and some Bible Journalling this week...

... coupled with a tad of window art (thanks to last week's inspiration of Bridget)

and yet another finished jigsaw.




   

 

Happy WOYWW Everyone.

      

WOYWW #569 - Bible Journalling

Oh my goodness, my Bible Journalling goodies arrived last Wednesday morning, I got a new Bible with plain margins, some watercolours and a kit to get me going and going I got!












I had a practice in my Dylusions Journal first as I'd never really done any watercolour painting since a child!

Then has a go on the back page for my first attempt on the flimsy paper. The back page is becoming a collage of bits of my pages now.

I've done a few pages over the week, loving adding colour to my Bible.








And as if that wasn't enough, I finished a jigsaw without a "correct" picture - a who dunnit one.











I even managed to stick a scrapbook page down and plan a few more of those too.  Phew!

Happy WOYWW Everyone

PS. If you spotted the spelling mistake, well done! The kit I bought had the wrong spelling which I copied unwittingly on my first page. I was gutted when a friend pointed it out but I've left it despite lots of ideas as to how to change it.

WOYWW #568 - Busy Busy Busy

Third week in a row, I'm on a roll...

Scrapbooking has moved along a few pages and I even made a birthday card!

  

I did a bit of crochet yesterday, good job I have a good supply of yarn handy. A local group have crochet bombed the highstreet and sent me the pattern for the rainbow, although I had to add the 7th row!



I've also finished a jigsaw and ordered a Journalling Bible and watercolours plus a kit to get me started....and gold painted a few decorations.

Happy WOYWW Everyone

WOYWW #567 - Scrapping...

Firstly apologies for late replies last week, but our Broadband decided to die on Wednesday afternoon! Frantic calls to BT with Easter looming and the lockdown in full force, wondering if they would be able to come and fix it. Fortunately it was fixed 24 hours later, phew.

Easter came and went, although I did manage to get my Easter tree up I didn't make any cards this year!

So I finished off last weeks pages and did a couple more and 2 further ones are on my desk pending inspiration.

 

Also on my desk is a book a friend sent me about Bible Journaling. I attended a Zoom meeting on this with church last Thursday although my attempts are rather more basic, text and doodling based.

Happy WOYWW Everyone

    

WOYWW #566 - The Comeback Queen!

Oh my life, it's been yet another YEAR since I've blogged and joined in with WOYWW and you guys!

I was making myself a face mask and it struck me I didn't have any of the lovely fabrics like Jan so I popped onto her page and left a comment and got a lovely reply and was waiting to say HELLO again today.
So I've just got myself back in scrapbooking, needless to say I am 2 YEARS behind  but have just ordered 268 photos to get me up to Christmas 2018 so that ought to keep me going in these strange times. Here are 2 double LOs I did last week and 1 I'm working on.
 

I've also started some embroidery but the warm weather has brought on my hand tingling/numbness again so can't do much of that.









And I've been doing the odd cutting out for our church toddler group. I did 75 sets of these bears for Mother's day but sadly they couldn't use them due to the restrictions coming in, although they are planning a late Mother's Day session as and when. Anyway I cut out a few more sets to send to friends to make up with their kiddies.

So I guess that is me. Nearly forgot how to write a blog page it's been so long, this has taken me nearly an hour!! Can't wait to join in the merry band again and visit all your lovely desks this is SUCH an ideal thing to do in these times of isolation.

Happy WOYWW Everyone

WOYWW #515 - The Decopatch Come Back!

After over a year I've actually got something to show on my desk plus the wherewithal to actually blog it!!!








A friend suggested I decopatch one of my many blank items for her, so I did the turtle, then did the hearts for a couple of my other friends and finally the moon for me.

I have made cards in the past year but only when needed and I'm now TWO YEARS behind in my photo scrapping, oopsey.


I turned 55yrs this year and am still "pending" menopause, no wonder I am all over the place!

Hope everyone is OK and I'm looking forward to getting back to stuff and crafting....

Happy WOYWW and Happy Easter everyone.
