WOYWW 779

 Just a week to go to the WOYWW anniversary - and not much longer to the crop when several of us will get together to  craft   chat     eat..   (delete as appropriate)  I can't wait!

I finished the atcs... but decided to keep them "secret" at least for this week.  

based on the expected numbers Sarah mentioned last week I have 1 for everyone going to the crop, plus keep one for me, and one for my PIF (assuming they're not going to the crop) and one for Morti who signed up for a swap..
so as not to just show you the backs of some atcs, here is a journal page I played about with at the weekend.




Had a lovely morning at Kew on Saturday, the first member's early opening Saturday (they actually start on 1 May but I was at work) 


the new Marc Quinn exhibition is FANTASTIC and I took loads and loads of photos - link to blog here    I didn't know until I heard a feature about him on Radio 4 last week, that he is the sculptor who created the Alison Lapper statue for the 4th plinth at Trafalgar square some years ago. 


and a couple of teasers. 

it's going to be 6 months of reflections and fun! 




I'll be round to visit you soon till then, happy WOYWW.

  4. Gorgeous journal page, love the colours and some more leaves for me to copy too LOL. I've only made 12 ATCs so far and would love to SWAP if you have any over. I think you'll have to organise a crop here for me to attend - LOL - as I don't travel well. Not even travelled to Kew such is my problem! The exhibition looks amazing, so glad I get to see your photos. Hugs BJ#5
