Welcome to Crafting With Jack and What’s On Your Workdesk Wednesday, a day when we link up to Sarah's Craftshed and have a look to see what everyone has been doing.  


My crafting (caravan) table yesterday.  I was in the middle of making two journals, but my husband wanted me to start this project.  The deer was from a decoupage kit my daughter bought me last Christmas.  I have covered it with texture paste and the next stage is painting.


The original method was to create pages as you went along, I really didn't like that method.  Then I tried again using larger pieces of paper,  that was fine, but I thought I'd try making one long piece and then folding it up.  There are three thin layers, plus a layer of gesso.  This was a much quicker method, but as always, the folding caused me problems.  I didn't take a scoring board which would have helped, but I am just not good at keeping everything straight without some refolding!

We now have visitors so all crafting on hold for a week.  Hoping I can get round to everyone still x.

 Welcome to Crafting With Jack and What’s On Your Workdesk Wednesday, a day when we link up to Sarah's Craftshed and have a look to see what everyone has been doing. 

In the awning of the caravan once more, this time looking after my MIL, not that there is a lot of looking after involved as she is very independent.  We took her to the hospital last Friday to have a lump removed from her face, the doctors today and a hearing check up tomorrow, Friday doctors again to get her wound checked.

I have been doing some crafting.  Over the weekend I decorated a zine, a challenge for The Ugly Art site.





Monday I started making a journal,  I brought some papers with me to use up.  I quite like working in the concertina type journals, I have developed an easier (for me) way of making them.

Short and sweet this week. x
