WOYWW 29th Feb

Not a lot going on, on my desk this week. I have been asked by a friend to help her with some cards for her friends birthdays.  Need to be girly cards.

 

And this is what I've been doing not really happy with it yet. Think it might look better on glossy card, and play around with the colours a bit more.

 

The little frames have been there for a while waiting to be finished off.

Quite a bit on my desk this morning,

Jewellery waiting to be listed on Folksy.

The beginnings of a journal that I've been asked to make, pages are ready to be sewn together. The cover has only been cut out and is awaiting a make over.

This is CoCo my assistant, shadow and partner in crime.

The felt bowl at the back of my desk I can't get the photo of it to upload, and I'm fed up of messing with it now. I will try again later to put the photos on this is my first piece of felting and I'm really pleased with it.

If you would like to join in the fun pop over to julia's

I'd like to thank you all for giving me such a warm welcome last week, and the lovely comments you left.

Queen of Hearts.

Queen of Hearts Bracelet.

The Queen of Hearts is a character from the book Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Charles Lutwidge Dodgson under the pseudonym Lewis Carroll in 1865.

 The Queen is believed by some to be a caricature of Queen Victoria.

This book has been a favourite of mine since childhood, I still have that copy of it very worn. I use to spend hours drawing the flowers with faces out of the book.

I thought that I would join in with the fun everyone is having, I've looked lots of times before but never joined in myself. Not sure why, still pondering that question....I'll let you know if I ever find the answer.lol

 I've become kind of bored with making cards, having made them for the last 20ish years for various classes and courses and samples. Been fumbling around in the dark trying to find out what I want to do next. I do still make cards and get ask to do so all the time, but making things for myself is quite a different thing.

Making this canvas was fun playing with different paints, stencils and inks, its still a work in progress and there are bits I don't like. It needs something not sure what so it will sit on my desk till it speaks to me..... I lot of my projects do this. 

To join in the fun pop over to julia's andtake a look around.

Sorry pictures are a bit crap, playing with new camera hopefully I'll get better.
