WOYWW 809

 December!  who stole 2024. .. it's time for WOYWW again with Sarah... head to the CraftShed for the link

I got another pile of Christmas cards made up at the weekend,  I was going to add glitter glue to them but couldn't find any Stickles that would actually come out of the bottle...

there will be some more in a drawer under the table that might work. I'll have to rummage!

however, I think I have enough now apart from a few "special" ones I make (if I don't run out of time)  so they just need writing and posting....  
I also did a bit of faffing with a journal page -  the page already had the stencilled shape on it, I just filled her body with some torn pieces of collage tissue.  I need to play more with this but it was a kind of reward to the Christmas cards!  










after the previous week's storm, 
Kew was able to open last weekend, and although it was a dull day it wasn't cold and it wasn't wet!


these were inside (obviously)  in the Temperate House.



Till next week, Happy WOYWW  see you soon!

Nice reflection from Kew.
Well done on getting a reward for the Christmas cards. Think mine will be tidying my craft room because it is looking dreadfully unloved at the moment - stuff everywhere.

Glad Kew was back open Helen. Well done on the Christmas cards. I am making a donation to charity in lieu of sending this year. Stay safe and Happy WOYWW. Sarah

I've loved making my cards but the writing and posting always gets shelved but this year I decided to use my Dad's Parker pen to write them with so it's been a nice activity. Well done on getting yours done. Love the reflections at Kew. x x Jo 🌈

I’m afraid everyone’s getting bought cards from me this year, I just ran out of time! I love Stickles and have to stop myself from using them everywhere, lol, hope you find some tubes that work. The collage looks fun, glad you had fun away from the cards!

Hi Helen, love the cards. I always keep some stainless pins for Stickles glitter as they do block up at the ends if not used regularly. Loving the photos too. Happy woyww with hugs Angela x10x

Well done on your Xmas cards. The colours at Kew were still lovely. I forget, are those porcelain berries outside? Bella woke me at 1am. I usually do my blog on Tuesday but I’d forgotten!
Happy WOYWW

Well done on the Christmas cards. There was much talk this morning at group about the price of postage these days, shocking!
Your journal lady is looking good in her new dress. Super reflection photo in Kew. Hugs BJ#11
