Wednesday again! WOYWW 140

Has it been a week already?
This morning I decided to take my picture first thing, before I had a chance to titify my table, so to speak.
So, (must stop using so at the beginning of my sentences!) what can we see here? Centre stage, a lovely bottle of red which my husband and I drank whilst playing Scrabble and eating home made curry, at the front are my children's lunch boxes, in the silver foil are freshly cooked sausage rolls and, if they're lucky, they are still warm at break! In front of Michael's lunch box is my trusty dictionary which we use to check dodgy words in the Scrabble quests and on top of that is yet another permission slip or Michael to play football. You may also spot a tin of Brasso, something about polishing his tackle(?) and some doilies. To the right of the bottle of wine is a pile of papers which miraculously turned into this:
This card is for a challenge set by Krsty Wiseman on the QVC craft presenters Facebook page.

Well, what else have I been doing? Taking photos of forks and faces, making cards,cakes and jam!
I also never got round to telling you all about my fun trip to QVC last week, oh well you'll just have to suffer looking through some photos instead!
I won't bore you any longer with catching up with my week as I'm sure you have a gazzillion desks to look at on Julia's blog I'm just about to check them out too.
Happy WOYWW

  1. Thanks for your lovely comments on my blog, I do appreciate them. :)

    Art journals... only something you do if you really WANT to, I'm just new to this but I am using it as a form of therapy seeing as I'm suffering from depression just now....not only is it a good way to express your feelings but also a great way to practice new techniques as well as trying out ideas and stuff.

    Thanks for stopping by,

    Happy WOYWW !
