It's Wednesday again - I am sorry I didn't get around to many people last week - but thank you for all your kind comments. I hope to visit a few more desks this week.
Here's my desk picture for WOYWW 594!
You can see I am part way through a journal page inspired by
Sharon Everett at the Forget Me Not Kraft Kabin.
When it is fully dry I will start adding some pen work.
I have finished painting the 8 pages for the Niamh Baly workshop
so that too is ready for the next step. They are in the back of this journal.
Also on my desk you can see a Christmas card I made the other day using a Graciellie Design image.
Under the workstation you can see a new stamp set from PaperArtsy.
Although I seem to be very slow I have kept on crafting - I am trying to keep up with 31 days of Halloween which I have done for the past several years. This year my project was to make several little books and a junk journal. I am part way through all of these!
It is also the Great Australian Craft Show this week so I have been watching a few videos online. We are hoping that restrictions will ease soon. Already they have a little, which meant I could see our daughter and our middle son.
We still cannot have anyone inside the house though.
My husband has come to the end of his current project - renovating this Canadian canoe. Hopefully in a week we will be able to take it out.
While he had a lot of orange paint about he also painted that box for me...
To finish - I am taking part in the Aussie Backyard Bird Count this week - this tree in our garden is attracting many birds!
Anyway, that's all for today - Have a happy WOYWW!
Hi Susan,love the Christmas card design!I do love Paper Artsy floral stamps, they are gorgeous. I have a few, probably about time I actually used them, lol. Love the orange colour, that box is fab. Stay safe, Have a lovely week, Hugs, Shaz #4 X

Loving the Christmas card and can't wait to see more of the journal pages. Wishing you a lovely week and a very happy woyww, Angela x20x
ReplyDeleteSusan, looks like you have a lot going on on that desktop! New PaperArtsy stamps...what could be better!? Your Christmas card is gorgeous! Just love it!! That canoe is fabulous! Love the color and good that he could use the leftovers for YOU! That's always fun right? That tree is amazing in your backyard! Hopefully you will see many a lovely bird as a result!!! Have a great rest of the week! Blessings Felicia #32
ReplyDeleteI'm not into Halloween but your card looks fab. Your tree is beautiful too. We have blue tits, coal tits, red caps, sparrows, robins, blackbirds, finches and crows and 5 very annoying magpies that squawk and frighten the small birds away. A sparrow hawk has visited and taken a blackbird, that was a sad day. Oh and pags of pigeons visit us too. And that completes my exciting garden!! Take care with hugs, Sue #35. x
ReplyDeleteOur garden Bird count takes place in January, we try to join in. That's a lovely Christmas card and I think the canoe looks great!

Hi Susan. Where to start. That journal page looks 3-D from here! Is it? Or are my elderly eyes deceiving me?? I love the Christmas card - and what with journals and cards you don't sound like you are slow and plodding at all!
ReplyDeleteHope you get out in the canoe before too long. It looks great - fantastic colour. The tree is beautiful - is it a bottle brush tree?
Take care of yourself. God bless.

ReplyDeleteLovely PaperArtsy stamps and your Christmas card is really beautiful. There's nothing wrong with being slow with art work and journals, some of mine are years in progress hee hee! Make time for playtime indoors & out..

That is a lovely Christmas card design. My son could do with some orange paint for the pumpkins he was painting. The colour he bought didn’t turn out like the sample they had. Angela #36
ReplyDeleteCute CHristmas card Susan. Glad some of the restrictions are being lifted for you. Good luck with the rest of the Halloween projects. Stay safe and happy WOYWW. Sarah #1
ReplyDeleteTerrific card ~ Sounds like your keeping busy! Hubby had a nice project completion too. Your tree is beautiful, if I was a feathered friend I would flock to it too ~ Enjoy your Halloween challenge ~ Love, Karen#40
ReplyDeleteA celebration in orange this week, Susan! The berries on the tree (pretty!), your lovely card, the canoe and the box! What could be better, to cheer the rather gloomy days we are having here in the UK.
ReplyDeleteHappy belated WOYWW,

Sorry I’m late! What a fab page in the making Susan, I bet drying time has you pacing a bit when you’ve got an idea on!! Loving the canoe, it looks fab, what a great colour too, bet you’re really looking forward to a launch day.
