WOYWW #849

 

    
 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 #849.


My desk looks pretty busy - I will have to clear it to get to that journal page if I want to get on with it! On top of the journal is a lovely serviette that I purloined from book group last week. We were reading The Henna Artist by Alka Joshi. Everyone enjoyed it.
In the middle at the front is a new whale tail punch a little larger than the one I already had - it arrived just now. Ollie and I Punched a few pieces much to his delight. 
For the benefit of BJ below I am adding a bigger picture of the punch plus punched.


And this is the sort of place I used them:


There is also a packet of TH embellishments from the same post...
On the easel are two journal pages that are mentioned in previous posts.


The journal at the front right is the one I mentioned last week - still on my desk.

Apart from that - I am partway through the current jigsaw


We are just on our way taking Ollie home so hope to get around everyone later...



All for now...
Happy WOYWW!

Autumn colours #2


This is my next journal page using the next image from the Conjurer of Dreams 



Continuing with my Autumn colours I made another set of cards...


The image on these is from LeighSB Designs Tangled Maple Leaf.
I painted these with water colours. I trimmed the images and distressed the edges with
 Vintage Photo.
I added the images to yellow card blanks matted with a patterned paper. I printed the sentiment on the computer and added this at the bottom.


I will add this design to Leigh's current challenge #44.

Autumn colours



I love Autumn colours so this image from the Conjurer of Dreams 
Facebook Progressive Challenge really inspired me to make this journal page.

This is how it started...


I then added leaves, splatter and the poem from Emily Bronte.


Continuing with my Autumn colours I made a set of cards...


The image on these is from LeighSB Designs but I don't think its available any more.
I painted these with water colours. I trimmed the images and distressed the edges with
