WOYWW #688

       

Wednesday again, so I am linking to the Stamping Ground. 

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 #688

I didn't manage to join in last week - I was over at son Matt's looking after the girls and Wednesday came and went...although we did have some fun playing with clay.

I then came back on Saturday and tested positive with Covid - so feeling pretty sorry for myself! Stuck at home, not very well and spending the time crafting. The girls have already had it but Matty has also tested positive.

Anyway this is my desk today:

Ready for the next project!

I intended sharing the finish of my July Junk Journal and the last ICADs last week - so I will just add the JJJ and week 8 as this post will be photo heavy:

Week 8 of ICADs (just the last 5 to go...)

Last weekend was another virtual retreat so I have some projects to share. This was with Hillbilly Scrappin' and the tutors were Cindy Porter, Niamh Baly, Michelle Grant and Mel Johns.

Anyway, all for now - see you next week...

Happy WOYWW!

Our Song/Rhyme this fortnight is from Margaret and runs through August 20th

Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas

Song by Sam Smith

Have yourself a merry little Christmas

Let your heart be light

From now on

Your troubles will be out of sight

Have yourself a merry little Christmas

Make the Yule-tide gay

From now on

Your troubles will be miles away

Here we are as in olden days

Happy golden days of yore

Faithful friends who I dear to us

They gather near to us once more

Through the years

We'll always be together

If the Fates allow

Hang a shining star upon the highest bough

So have yourself a merry little Christmas

Have yourself a merry little Christmas

So have yourself a merry little Christmas now

To play in this challenge you do not have to follow the Song/Rhyme to the letter. We only ask that you find something in the song or rhyme to inspire your card/project and that you tell us what your inspiration was in your blog post. (This is required to be eligible for the prize)

This is my inspiration:

I have used Holly Chorus Frog just adding a small amount of red and green to the image.

I trimmed the image to fit a green card blank and added faux stitching around the rectangle.

If you haven't already, please join our

I will also add this to Leigh's current challenge
