I have done the third nine days, which fit in an ATC folder:


I started off using a master board which I made last December. I brayered this with white gesso and cut it apart. I then added elements inspired by the themes...


Day 19 - stranger


Day 20 - signal


Day 21 - secret


Day 22 - dust

WOYWW #899

No work desk this week as on Monday I came into hospital for a hip replacement. I did bring some crossstitch but thus far it has stayed in my bag.
I am doing pretty well - the drugs help!


I don't think I have anything to share - all my recent makes are for swaps so secret for now. All my long challenges are on hold for a day or two. And I haven't got photos.
So to finish I will just add some pictures from the weekend trip to Wattle Park and our garden.
It is definitely 'yellow' season here...we are moving into Spring. The first picture is in our garden.




 

Hope to get round everyone this week... 
Happy crafting - Happy WOYWW!

This was mine that she had liked and another that I placed on my August calendar:



This is one of Sophie's to which I had added black pen:

These are the second nine of this challenge:

Addicted to Stamps and More #524 Any Occasion

 



The above is my Any Occasion project...for Challenge #519

I was shown this technique by Jan in a recent Zoom Craft and Chat with the Uk Stampers Network.

It is basically formed of lunched circles cut in half and arranged in spirals.




Hope you will enter the Addicted to Stamps and More Challenge! Do hop over to see the fabulous inspiration from my team-mates!
