WOYWW 818

 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.

The sun is shining this morning, not sure how warm it is outside though.  I will find out when my grandson comes to the back of the garden.  He is a ray of sunshine himself.  I say "Hello Joshua, how are you doing?" He responds "Fine thank you, what have you been doing this morning?".  A minute or two of chat and a hug makes my day!

Yesterday morning I thought I would water the plants before breakfast. I spilled some water, in mopping it up I knocked the atomiser over, which spilled water on the carpet!  In moving a plant out of the way it fell over and left soil on the carpet!  The spilled water was in a hard to reach position and I was back and forth to the kitchen getting kitchen towel as I had spilled more than I thought.  In trying to clear up the soil I made more of a mess 😒.  I staggered into the kitchen and my husband said "What on earth have you been doing?"😦 (Chronic fatigue sufferers will immediately understand) It set the tone for the entire day.  I did manage to do some colouring, but that was it.

The seahorse is for a collage I am planning.  I have had this colouring page for several years, originally I was going to draw one, but I discovered this in my "Sea" box. ( There was a pause here while I went out to say hello to Joshua 😊)  All things related to the sea, stamps, dies, images are in my "Sea" box.


If you remember the book I was in the middle of last week.  It is the one on the right with a ribbon binding.  The one on the left was Travel Planner my faith pages were in.


It is made of scrapbook paper and I used a hinge binding.  I managed to use up 25 sheets of 12 x 12 although I still have left over scraps as the pages measure 9 x 7 inches.


The book above I saw on a Pinterest email.  This is the link.  It is called a Double Locking Accordion.  I didn't have any 24 inch paper so I had to tape two pieces together.  The paper I used was far too thin (righthand side) so I ended up covering it with scrapbook paper. (lefthand side)
