Follow the link to find out more about What's on Your Work Desk Wednesday and maybe join in... This is my post for WOYWW #824
Well we are back from Matty's and I am back in my craftroom - On my desk you can see some of the junk journaling things I have been making - some chunky tickets and a folded notebook based on this video. There are also, underneath this, two more that I have been sent as a swap. (I mentioned this folded notebook in Week # 821 after seeing Spyder's)
On the desk easel there is a St Patrick's Day journal spread - the images are from Conjuror of Dreams.
As I was away last week I didn't share the recent journal page I had done: - the cat is from Karen Yates at Michelle Grant Designs.
And a zine which I made during a UKSN Zoom - workshop by Mickey.
This used a lot of Art by Marlene stuff
I missed out on the Conjuror of Dreams Progressive Challenge as I was away - but this is the card I made when I got back with last week's image.
On the way home from East Gippsland we called in at Yinnar. There was a sculpture festival to see. Some of the sculptures were along the main street; some were in a gallery.
This challenge has no sponsors, but you do have the opportunity to win a top 3 badge.
Now on to the challenge!
Our Song/Rhyme this fortnight is from Margaret
I was thinking of fairies...
These images and sentiment come from Scrimpingmommy. I fussy cut them all and then layered them up on a cream card blank.
The upper layers are on dimensional tape.
But as it is St Patrick's Day tomorrow I also thought of Irish little folk - leprechauns. This image and sentiment are from LeighSBDesigns and firstly a card I made some time ago...then a new one - not quite a leprechaun but that's what it made me think of!!
The second one has layers of green papers - one from Scrimpingmommy, one from Gecko Galz and one just in my stash.
Last month I made several meander books....and I decided to make another today.
I am at my son's helping with the granddaughters so I am working on his dining table on a laminated map.
This time my meander book uses a Coles supermarket paper bag. This made quite a big book - about 11cm by 24 cm. I cut the bag into a large rectangle, cutting down a side and removing the handles and the base. I then folded this in thirds across the shorter side and half and half again on the long side. This makes the 12 rectangles shown below.
If you are worried that the back does not quite fold over the rest of the book when complete you can add an extra couple of centimetres to the end before folding: I did...
I used pages from a Daphne's diary magazine for the backgrounds and the images I am using are from Gecko Galz Steam Queen Junk Journal Kit. Some while ago Leanne asked for some examples of how we might use the junk journal kits.
The fold for the meander book is basically 3 by 4 rectangles with two cross cuts.
My friend on WOYWW Mary Anne provided this diagram: mine is similar...
