WOYWW 362

Hello and welcome to another WOYWW at Julia's.  
Still no new stuff to share... not sure how this has happened, this must be a record...
I have been playing though; although not with the journal page on show last week.

you may if you look closely, see some atcs - yes, I've got a couple done (not fully finished yet) for the WOYWW anniversary and also some for a FB swap I'm in  (you can click on the photos to enlarge them)

I'll   probably do (or maybe will even have done by the time this is published) have done a full post on the journal page, but for now, here are a few details
 background mo p up from some atcs I've been making

stencilling borders and stamping then white pen doodling...

covered the butterfly in gloss gel and added more doodling


Hope you have a lovely week and I'm off to see if I can find something I "need" to have some new goodies to show next time.. 4 weeks in a row would be too much!!

The journal looks great with that pretty butterfly on it and you don't need to show new stuff everytime just what your playing with at the moment. With all your stash it's all new to me lol hugs Nikki? ?

Yet another wonderful page from the hands of our Helen. Cannot believe you have gone so long without spending - it is the stamp companies who must not be tempting you at the moment.

Guess what? I've made some ATCs too! I popped over to Julia's to blag a free cuppa yesterday and made about 16 in 30 mins flat! No thought process, just went for it :-). Your journal pages are lovely, really like the butterflies!

Debbie Rock said...

LOVE LOVE LOVE those pages Helen ... am very keen to enter into the world of art journalling but 'tis an uphill battle! I now have three journals with decorated covers all ready and waiting to go and one in which I made a first attempt (shockingly bad and I may tear them out and hang my head low in shame!!!!) but that one needs the cover doing. And then I battle not only myelf, but himself. Putting the journals on the shelf he asked what I was doing with them. I tried to explain the concept, but failed. "Then what do you do with them?" Stropped off at that point and gave up ... they are not "functional" you see, so he will never get it. Shall look forward to seeing more of your wonderful, wonderful journalling. Love to you, Debbie #30 xXx

Nothing new? I'm deeply disappointed! Always love a good mop up, with nothing going to waste.

The journal page looks lovely - I like the colors you have chosen! Huh your "desk" looks full of interesting stuff but I can't find the ATCs - maybe they are there on the left hand side!
Lots of hugs,

Hi Helen, I did indeed go a bit mad- I blame Hubby, for not reining me in, and positively encouraging me in most cases! Loved the show though- enjoyed it way more than the NEC ones. Saw the art journal page, loving the colours. I really need to get going with my ATC's, lol. Last minute as always.Have a great week, Hugs, Shaz #11 xxx
