WOYWW 224


Pip pip!  How are you all? :)

Here is my desk today...




A prepped page in my alpha challenge dictionary - a bit curly at the moment but nothing a few bulldog clips won't sort out.  That is what I intend to do today - if I don't spend to much time desking!

Also I want to share a layout I finished off yesterday.  I was meant to post it yesterday but, well, it didn't happen! 




The ribbons are new designs.  The stamp stamp is from Joynana's candy.  Fits perfectly :) 



 


The urchins are my brother and I many moons ago.  I'm a bit worried that Santa got his mince pies that year - I appear to be after snaffling one of them for myself...

That's all for today - check out here for more desks

    I just love the ribbon in the stamped stamp image. Just lovely. And a great layout - I like the use of colors other than traditional colors.

DMIO: Teach Me Something

A few weeks back I made a dream catcher.  A few readers asked if I could show them how I made it, so, here is my attempt at a tutorial! First up weaving the web. 1. You'll need a hoop and some ribbon/thread/yarn on a bobbin. 2. Attach the ribbon securely to your hoop. 3. Take your ribbon over the top of the hoop... 4. and up through the loop you've just made with the ribbon... 5. so you have a cross over. 6. Continue steps 3-5 until you reach the knot. 7. Now instead of going over the hoop you will crossover the ribbon 8. and through the loop you've just made to give a crossover. Continue on in this fashion until you get to the middle. You need to leave a hole in the middle as this is where the good dreams get through!  They then run down the tassels/feathers/any other hanging decoration and on to the owner.  It should look something like this.  You'll need to play around with your tension until you get a firm web. Now for the tassels - I like to

A Poe Quote

So I've been trying out art journalling for a while but had nothing that I wanted to share, until now. I was inspired by The Bears Challenge and picked this quote to base my page on. "If you wish to forget anything on the spot, make a note that this thing is to be remembered" I got some paints out, some spray mists too.  I used my fan brush, my fingers and a cotton rag.  I got messy, satisfyingly messy :) The letters are some old letraset vinyls that were my Aunt's.  When we cleared my Grandparents house I couldn't stand the art goodies to go to waste.  I saved them because I knew one day I would find a use for them.  They must be 40 years old but are still perfect.  (I sometimes look at things I get today and think they won't still be good in 5 years let alone 40!) I don't have the complete alphabet so there are some adaptations... c's became o's, E's became t's, w's became m's.  I magicked a k from a P!  Some
