Anyhow, for once I've been making stuff.
the gorgeous crate is going on the recycling "I can do something fab with this" pile - it's from a 1kg bumper box of cherries I bought at the weekend (not only for the box, honest, I love cherries!)

WOYWW 218
Good morning/afternoon/evening and happy WOYWW day... The best day of the week, not only because we're halfway to another weekend but the day we all get to nose round desks and cupboards and floors (I'm not the only one any more!) thanks to Julia's brainchild idea.
Anyhow, for once I've been making stuff.
A double page journal spread (see yesterday's post for the full info)
and I'm getting ready for the Stamperama stamp show at Stevenage on Sunday - ticket ready, train times ready, woyww badge ready, notebook... and
the gorgeous crate is going on the recycling "I can do something fab with this" pile - it's from a 1kg bumper box of cherries I bought at the weekend (not only for the box, honest, I love cherries!)
last week I was lucky enough to win a blog giveaway from the so so kind Jo (Jozart) and look how fab the parcel is..... wonder what was inside... shall we see?! it was like Christmas!!!
some bunting (so pretty, shame I made such a mess of it taking it out of the packet... lol. It is sorted out now!) and loads of other goodies... Thanks so much Jo - I will love using this!! And when I can find a hammer the bunting will be up in the hallway, as I told you..Promise I won't fall off anything putting it up!
so that's me today. thanks for your visits and comments last week, next week as you may have gathered I will have (lots!) new things to show you from the show at Stevenage.... !! Till then, have a good week.
Anyhow, for once I've been making stuff.

I adore your artful blooms. I saw the post below and got all the deets. I've been a bit lax lately, because I've been doing Tea (grin).
Lucky you to win Jo's giveaway. You got some absolutely gorgeous things. Christmas indeed.
I saw your comment on Julia's tea post. Did you get a photo of the rocker? I am sure it's stunning, because I've seen photos of other work by Mr. Dunnit.
happy early WOYWW.
Didn't Jo send you some fun treats :) and your double journal page is sweet

We love your AJ pages. Lucky you with the stash win. Have fun at Stamperama, we're not going as it's just too crowded for small bears.

Bloomin' lovely :) and thanks for the fair warning of your upcoming shop. Now I don't know if I should avoid or embrace the envy :)
Love the AJ too, One of my fave things about WOYWW is getting in to the habit of visiting regularly. So easy to forgo blog hopping in deference to actual crafting, but on WOYWW day I know I'll MAKE the time!
Happy WOYWW!

I would be seriously disappointed if you didn't get anything at the show and even more so if you failed to show us next week!! Love the journal page... and yeah cars, my daily driver is having the windscreen replaced tomorrow too. Let's hope that's the last of it!

I'm so late visiting but I hope you'll forgive me ;D
Congratulations on your fabulous prize.
Your floral journal pages are gorgeous.
Thanks for popping over to my place earlier...Belated Happy WOYWW :D
I agree, the cherry box (union Jack) will make a 'great something' I have boxes ready to make 'things' because they are just too nice to throw away!
Thanks for my snoop! Have a great crafty week! Happy (a bit late) WOYWW!?!

Congratulations on the goodie bag win! And the box looks fab! :) Thanks for stopping by my exploded craft room and leaving me such a sweet comment...I'm not fully recovered or even finished yet but that doesn't keep me from ignoring the mess and crafting anyways! lol :) Deeyll
Congratulations on the win. I also loved you Stamperama stash photos (only couple of paperartsy items then!) :-)
