 This is my post for WOYWW#910

Here is my desk today:

My craft room still looks as though a bomb has hit it... I have sorted out a few things but there's still a long way to go! Maybe I will show a little more next week...

On the front you can see my Trovember so far- a collage made by adding one item all the way through November. I am adding a blog post about this every 7 days. I have worked out that each prompt arrives at 6am my time the next day...

I finished another workshop from the virtual retreat - this time by Annette Gearside.

The attached rectangle is a 'journaling booklet'.

 Remember the workshop I shared last week by Amanda Branston?

I used the same technique to decorate the charity box I was painting last week.

And also to make some Christmas cards:

Melbourne is famous for its coffee... we always have fun deciding on the images on their surfaces:

Can you see anything in these?

Sending hugs to all connected to WOYWW. Hopefully I will get around you all this week!

Addicted to Stamps and More Challenge #530. Diecuts and/or Stencils

This is my Die cut/Stencil project...for Challenge #530
at Addicted to Stamps and More

This card started with a 5 by 7 blue card blank, matted with a piece of designer paper.

I then added a layer of grey designer paper under the die cut on a glossy paper.

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

7th Annual Treasure Trovember 2026 - first seven days

  I decided to join the November Trovember Challenge instigated by

Collage-Lab

I discovered this event last year...

These are my first 7 days with the suggested prompts. 

I started with an A3 piece of substrate.

Day 1 - Add a wonky grid.

I used pages from my calendar torn into pieces.

Day 2 - Add something tall.

This cat came from Extraordinary Things to Cut Out and Collage by Maria Rivans. I thought it was tall compared to my page.

Day 3 - add repetition 

I added a stamped image using a stamp from my stash. It has a bird and musical notes on it.

Day 4 - add a sound

I used music paper with letters.

Day 5 - add an occupation

The image came from Daphne's diary.

Day 6 - add something cool

This picture was in a book I found in an op shop "Folon".

Day 7 - add a doll

I found a paper doll in a copy of Daphne's Diary.

November Conjurer of Dreams ATC Challenge

             

These are my makes for the 

Conjurer of Dreams

MONTHLY ATC Challenge

with a freebie image set. 

The theme this month is Granny Tea Time.

I used the ATC backs on scraps of blue card. I then added the fussy cut images.

I usually make these ATCs while watching television so this is where I started - I then added some more embellishments...

I added thread to the balls of wool and pins to this basket.

I added a little colour here and there with markers and ribbon roses to the coffee and tea pot.

 As a Grandma, I think the expression on this next lady's face is most like me...

I added teaspoons to this ATC.

I will link these to the challenge.
