WOYWW #663

 Another Wednesday, time for a peek at each other's desks and projects! If you would like to learn more, just go to http://www.stamping-ground.blogspot.ca/p/what-is-woyww.html. Maybe you could join our little group!

I hope everyone had a lovely Valentines Day (or Galentines Day as my single friends like to call it!) We had a lovely evening with music, dancing, homemade dinner, and candy! Anyway, here is my desk today, I was busy last week but I haven't been here at all this week. I think it's lonely!


Last week I made my mother's birthday card, and hubby's VDay card



I used Gelli Prints for the background of both. I also made a little Tag Book that I gave to my Mom for her birthday:






These were a set of tags that came with hubby's new winter coat, so I snatched them! I used my gelli prints for the backgrounds, and Tim Holtz's people, and some stamp embellishments I bought years ago. Also TH's words, some from the snarky set.

Last but not least, I managed to get a picture of Inky, laying in a most uncomfortable spot on top of my piano book on a small table beside the piano! Poor thing feels a bit lost in the winter!


Mittsy has found a new favourite spot down in the basement on a comfy chair in my hubby's office, I don't see her all day, I think she's hibernating!

Well, that's it for me, have a wonderful week, and "meow" from Mittsy and Inky!

Hello! It's still freezing here, still snowing, still hunkered down due to Covid and winter. Not much happening, the days seem to all meld into each other. WOYWW comes around very fast every week! I have been playing in my art room, mostly with my gelli plates or with the prints. I've added a lot to my exploding journal, it should be finished soon. Here is my desk Tuesday morning:


I had just tidied up after working on a journal page.

Here are a few journal pages from my square journal. The first one is a page I made using the Birthday Card my good friend Therese made for me (I hope she doesn't mind). I decided rather than keep the cards people send me in a box somewhere, I would use them in my journals and be able to enjoy them longer. I cut the card to fit the pages, used a gelli print to add to the space, and added the clown, the watch, the face on the right side and the car. She had a lovely bookmark attached to this card, that I will use as a bookmark.

Therese Malak made the lovely collaged background


These other pages I'm pretty sure you've seen before, but I thought I would add them anyway as I don't remember.




This journal also has just a few pages left in it.

Well, that's it for today, short and sweet. The kitties are wandering around here and there, Mittsy probably in her favourite chair in the basement with her Dad. We all say have a great week! "Meow!"

Well, here we are at the beginning of a new month! I call February the longest shortest month of the year, because to me it seems to go on forever...too cold, too much snow, I want Spring!!

Here is my desk today. My hubby got a new coat and it had a neat set of tags all connected together, so of course, I had to snag it and play with it!




And here is what surrounds me! Yesterday I was playing with black stencilling on my gelli plate on top of some prints I had made a few days ago. As you can see, some worked and some didn't, but once they are all cut up you can see more possiblities!




And we had the most beautiful little snowstorm on Monday! Lots of snow forecast for the next few days. I so love February (NOT!)


No kitty pics today, I don't even know where they are at the moment! Not outside, that's for sure, -10°C out there!

Have a great week, and "meow" from the kitties!
