WOYWW 872/92: On the Mend

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.
I always seem to be behind on news about Neet, but my understanding is that she is back home.  Here's to a steady recovery!

                                

I used my glass mat on the desk to measure my knitting and I am ready to start decreasing for the armholes.  I am also nearly ready for my second ball of wool.

I thought this would give everyone a laugh.  It was recently on my old school's FB page and brought back plenty of memories.  I still have the shield that I won (I am in the backrow on the end next to the student in a top hat).  Somewhere I have a signed photo of Jack Woolgar too.

Year of the horse

I didn't end up going over to Mum's last Friday as I was full of cold and didn't want to pass it on.  I did make it to SRP on Saturday  - I had to take minutes as there was a committee meeting before the playing session - and made it through the afternoon.

I will be heading over this week though as it is my turn to pay for breakfast at Spoons.

Stay safe and Happy WOYWW.

Mid Month Mini Make Challenge: Technique

 The mid month challenge over on Clarity Crafts Mini Makes and ATCs is Technique - either an old one or a new one.  I was reminded of the salt on watercolour technique by a background that my sister-in law had created and that I used for my February journal page (see HERE) and decided to have a play for myself.

Red Riding Hood Folk Art Birthday

I had to have a quick play with the rest of the Folk Art goodies that I ordered from Clarity. Here I worked on one of the small square Dawn and Dusk Landscape toppers.

February #dailyatc2026 Part I

I have completed next part of this year's challenge to myself - a daily ATC, following the prompts over on 365 days of drawing prompts and other art and using Clarity stamps, stencils and stickers.  Here are my offerings for the first half of February.

Youngest Child

Bamboo

Crazy Critter

Lips

This was the first time I had to use a non Clarity item - the lips are by Visible Image - everything else is Clarity.

Delicious

Dangle

Vinyl

Raven

Carousel

Grounded

For this one I used one of the stamps from Timestamp Creations (made by Clarity).

February PTC: (Fur) Baby

The prompt for the February PTC swap over on Clarity Mini Makes and ATCs is Baby. I have very few Groovi plates with a baby theme so decided to base my PTC around the word baby but use animal images instead.

Floral Swirls and Rosie Doodles on Kraft

For my final sample using the Floral Swirls and Rosie Doodles Sampler stamps I went with a simple colour palette on kraft card and created a set of notelets.

Floral Swirls and Rosie Doodles DL Card

The Floral Swirls and Rosie Doodles A4 sampler set has stamps for all occasions.  Here I used two of the stamps to create a Good Luck DL card.
