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 #825 

For me this is quite a clear desk!!

The main thing I have been doing is the cover of an altered book ( this week's Wanderlust)


I have also been making a junk journal cover on a travel theme. The journal pages inside I was given and they are just tied in at the moment (easy to take in and out) but I also intend adding some more signatures. The cardboard cover is covered with fabric.

On my computer desk I have some faux postage stamps that I have been making:


My featured post above is about another meander book. A friend suggested making the pages into pockets - I put ATCs in these and I have used the recent Conjuror of Dreams Progressive Challenge image.


Kevin has just harvested our crop of Butternut/pumpkins... looking forward to some soup!


And I have just finished a jigsaw...

That's all for now...


Happy WOYWW!

Mermaid ATCs

I have been taking part in the Conjuror of Dreams Progressive Challenge.

The most recent image I have received is of a mermaid.

I have used this to decorate a little meander book containing ATCs.


The idea of making the pages into pockets was suggested by a friend of mine, Laura...




Happy Crafting!

I matted the card base with a piece of Art By Marlene paper.
I stamped this with a Carabelle Studio stamp in black Archival.
Alice is from Scrimpingmommy
The sentiment is from Art by Marlene and it just appealed to me!

WOYWW #824

It is Wednesday so

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.
These are some that we liked:



That's all for now...

Happy WOYWW!
