 It's What's on Your Workdesk Wednesday, time for a peek at each other's desks and projects! We are now sharing through Sarah, at Sarah's Craft Shed.

Hello everyone! I didn't forget this week! I have a few things to show, which is nice, but first my desk this morning, with a little hint of my most recent project:


I've always liked Zentangles, and used to do a bit of it years ago. Recently I've been watching a channel on You Tube called Hu Art Drawing and fell in love with his Zentangles. I thought I would give his process a try...


Not too bad for not having done Zentangles for many years! I love the addition of watercolours to the Zentangles! If you enjoy Zentangles, check out his channel!

I also finished 2 pages in my JIYA Journal:



Megan Quinlan stencils. The first sentiment with the birds is from the Mary Poppins play (musical) that we saw last Friday. It's a song that I don't remember from the movie.

I also finished a page from my Fabric Journal (yes, still working on that!)



I did some zentangles in the purple hand! The image is from Collage Soup.

Well that's it for me! We are having another heat wave, which is also bringing humidity, but it's not too bad. We have AC so we are comfortable (actually I'm freezing!) indoors. I remember in the past trying to do my art without AC and dripping over everything! It is very nice that that isn't happening anymore! I hope all of you are comfortable wherever you are too, Have a great week,

Well, I missed last week, Wednesday flew by, and it wasn't until Thursday that I remembered! Senior moment!🤪Oh well. Here is my desk this morning: 

I'm working on a new journal page, will be done by next week. I did a bit of re-organozing this week. I decided I didn't want my Meghan Quinlan stencils to be sorted into categories, along with other stencils, but kept in their original groups, so I did this:

These are right beside me at my desk. I think I will be able to remember more what I have this way.

Here is my latest completed journal page, that I showed you the start of in my last post:


The girl in the middle flips. I'm not all that happy with this page, I think it's too busy.

Well, that's all for me today, it's a beautiful day today, blue skies, no clouds, about 20°C, but I'm sure the heat will be back soon! Have a wonerful week, and I will try not to breeze past next Wednesday!

I have missed a couple of posts, not due to illness but to laziness 🙄. I haven't done much of anything in my art room for a couple of weeks. But this past weekend Jasper and her Mom came to visit, and Jasper and I spent time in my art room! She wanted to paint, and make cards, so that is what we did.



She made a few of these painted cards, then stamped and coloured in the stamped image. I didn't get  photo of them☹️ though. But on July 1st, Canada Day, we went to an art fair where there was an arts and crafts tent, and Jasper made a few crafts, then this painting


We chopped it up for cards when we got home and she made these for her Mom and Dad:





She wanted to use my Alice in Wonderland collection for her Dad's card!

Anyway, watching her have a day of art was so much fun




I did start a journal page last week, here is is:

journal page start

Hopefully I can finish it this week.

Well that's it for me today, Jasper is safely home with her Mom starting Summer Camp today. She was very excited, as she seems to be about so many things these days! 4 years old is such a wonderful year!

I will leave you with Mittsy and Inky today...



Have a wonderful summery week!
