 Welcome to Crafting With Jack and What’s On Your Workdesk Wednesday, a day when we link up to Julia's Stamping Ground and have a look to see what everyone has been doing.    We had a lovely Christmas, today I watched High Society and Beauty and the Beast, loved both films.  It’s not the first time I have watched them and it probably won’t be the last.  Christmas Eve my son made me an Advocaat Hot Chocolate.  It was delicious and too late I realized I couldn’t drive afterwards.  I did intend going to midnight service, but better safe than sorry.  I don’t like alcohol normally.  We had both my son and his family and my daughter and her family over for Christmas Day.

Wishing you all a very happy New Year, full of creativity, fun and happiness.

Home from visiting my mother in law, with a back that is no better at all.  Decided not to go to the Bible group today, had the miseries for a short while, then I put all the Christmas stuff on and inspired by Mary Anne's post took some photographs to show you.

Top left is my new reindeer rocker, I bought it on a visit to a garden centre last weekend.  My daughter bought me an Advent Yankee Candle box, so I lit today's candle.

My mother made two fabulous sacks for her and my father.  Since we have the same initials she gave them to me. 

On a trip out with my mother in law we stopped for a cake and coffee.  There were paintings on display - for sale on the walls.  This one wasn't near us, but the dog caught my eye.  Surely no one would paint a dog doing a poo!  To confirm my suspicions😄😄, I snapped a shot with my phone.  Yes indeedy!  the dog is doing a poo!  if you look at the couple having a picnic, they are showing their bottoms!

Sending Christmas wishes, love and hugs to all x Angela

My Faith Inspirations Journal pages. Top right page, the Annunciation; bottom left, the Angel Gabriel; bottom right, the birth of Jesus foretold.  The top left isn't part of this sequence.

The left is a page with the image I did last week and on the right the Nativity scene from a paper napkin.  I did intend putting a quote at the top, but ran out of time.

Still doing my scripture writing everyday.  I painted some new backgrounds today adding a little texture with a tissue.

ATC Cards with Gecko Galz images.

My workdesk as of yesterday.

I did my back in a few days ago, but I am glad to say it is improving.  I must be careful how I get boxes out!    My niece came yesterday with her little girl, Annalia.  Annalia loved my musical Christmas bird and I happened to have a spare one!  Not sure how long it will last if she gets her fingers on it!

For Gecko Galz Christmas challenge.

The left image is the free Christmas image for December.  The right one is after editing.  I added an image of Jesus, Mary and a lamb. This image came from a vintage image.  The finished image is 5 x 8 inches, which makes the addition quite small in the print out.

I downloaded several images from Rawpixel for my latest Bible journal pages.  The theme is Isaiah 7:14  "Therefore the Lord Himself will give you a sign: The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and will call His name Immanuel."  

My work desk as of yesterday!  I am still doing my Scripture Writing challenge and needed to paint some more pages.  I did a couple more flowers at the same time.  The pages on the right are for my Bible Journal.  Bottom left a print out of some images from Gecko Galz for December challenges. I printed out some challenge cards for Faith Inspirations.  As you can see I have been doing a lot of printing out.

A few enlargements, the numbers were from some vintage pages that I copied and printed out for collage.  Looking forward to going back to my craft room to complete a few projects, after visiting of course 😀.  Tonight we are going out with my son and family to celebrate his birthday.   I am always the designated driver at home time and the place my son has chosen is out of the way, which means dark country lanes and an unfamiliar route! 😱😱.  Have a great week x
