WOYWW August 13- Brain Function Returns!

YES! DD is back from Israel, safe and somewhat sound.
Thanks for all your prayers and kind words.
Backtracking...


Cell phone died, then rodents ate the land line!
I did some therapeutic shopping and found some fun stuff on the free table at the FAA meeting.
At left, altered book poetry journal page- my first.
Do come by Poetry Journal Monthly and join in the sharing.

I finished up the pack of crummy watercolor postcards and gessoed the front cover and back board to make two more!
Somewhere over the rainbow is a digital cut file, sketched instead of cut.
Use the popsicle stick to get the right setting for your pen.
I don't know where I got the green woman and blowing dandelion files-shout out to me if you know or they are yours.
Sentiments by Quietfire
(exciting announcement coming soon- I'll let Julia spill the ink on that one!)

Don't you wish life had an "ok" button to push!

I maybe a day or so behind and I will get around to visiting many deskers!

Comment and Questions welcomed!

I am so with you on the OK button...NEED one badly right now as I sit and wait for the plumbers the insurance are sending today to replace my burst geyser...going to the gym to shower! Last week it was a dead battery in my car...the list goes on, so I am SO with you in sympathy on the dead cell and land line! Hope the shopping spree made you feel better! #21

It is so hard to manage sometimes when we live such busy lives. I want an OK button or better still a pause button.

Looks like you've had a lovely creative week. My mind was immediately drawn to your altered book. Looking forward to seeing more of that.
Have a fun week!

Beautiful cards - I love the girl with the twirly hair - just gorgeous! I love Quietfire designs, they do some fabulous stamps and you've really shown them at their best with those fab backgrounds. Hope you a great week,

They would only eat the landline when you actually need it, huh! I will be biting myself up on Friday...I have a card to make to accompany myself first!
Love what you've done with the bird files, gosh you do move in circles of cleverness!

Hi Robyn,

So glad your husband is home safe. I imagine that's a relief beyond words.

I have a selection of watercolor papers of different weight, cold and hot press. What paper did you find that you didn't like? I think your projects look great, by the way. Love the "Somewhere over the Rainbow" especially. The cards are very cool. Now you have me thinking of the big announcement.... hmm, what could it be?!?

Today I'm off work so hoping to get around to at least those that have visited me so far.

Happy WOYWW
Peace, Kay (14)

In some ways scary phone dead and no mobile, but in other ways nothing to stop you crafting! Every cloud has a silver lining Jackie 15

Lovely post Di, lots going on on your desk and your brightly coloured projects are a treat. Glad your daughter is home safe and sound. What with no phone and no cell phone it must have made for some very quiet and peaceful crafting time :) Hope you have a great week. Elizabeth x #45
