February ATC - Baby

The prompt for the Clarity Mini Makes and ATCs swap for February is Baby, and I once again decided to use some of my alcohol ink backgrounds made with a gel press in a workshop with Barbara Gray.

February Journal Page

 For my February Journal page in my Clarity Crafts Journal, I started with a background that my sister-in-law had created on watercolour card with watercolours and salt.  This is the final result.

Rainbow Folk Art

For my final sample with the new Folk Art stamps from Clarity Crafts, I went with my favourite rainbow colours - this time using Archival inks - and used a selection of them on a small card (5" x 5").

WOYWW 870/90: Back Knitting

Welcome to the weekly sharing of desks which is WOYWW (What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday?), the brainchild of Julia, who kindly entrusted it to me to continue after the first 15 years of togetherness.  Please feel free to link up your desk and visit others' - we are a friendly bunch. 

Sorry to hear that Neet is back in hospital.  Wishing her well and that she is back home again soon.

My desk shows some of the new stamps that arrived on Monday from Clarity (by Timestamp Creations).  I spent yesterday afternoon putting them away after my samples were posted off and will have a play tomorrow before Anglo-German club - I am planning a PJ/TV catch up day today.
As you can see there has been a small amount of progress with my knitting.  I have been sticking to two rows a day over the last week in case the pain came back and from tomorrow I will up it to 4 rows a day.

As you can see, I have changed the colour palette for the backgrounds on my #dailyatc2026 with the start of February.  I can't believe we are already over a month into 2026.
I will be round to visit on Friday as always.  Until then, stay safe and Happy WOYWW.
