On the left of the pic is a lovely stash of matt board that I got free. Yes, free!! I was out bright and early getting photo's framed and I asked the framer if I could buy some off cuts. He handed me a box and said "take all you want I usually throw it out". I showed restraint and took half, knowing I will be back next week to collect my pics and taking the rest of his offcuts. Thank you Mr. Framer.
I am adding my February art journal pic again ... just because I am happy that it turned out ok and it was underneath all the matt boards.
I am also watching a Doone video tute on how to alter photos and add to an altered book. This is all really new to me. I am a technique junkie sitting glued to the screen watching everything Doone is demonstrating. Then I get up to make a cup of tea and start playing with the cat. When I finally get back to my desk I have to start watching the video again I forgot to hit pause. That's about all for this woyww. Now have to see what everyone else is doing.
Love the Feb journal.

Lots of lovely things happening on your desk. Those bird cages look great. What luck to get all that lovely mount board, it's so expensive to buy. I may have to go and see if there's any going spare in our Framers.
ReplyDeleteYour journal page looks gorgeous.
Hugs Lisax

ReplyDeletejanet
Useful video, no?
ReplyDeleteI love altering photos too!
Quit putting your stuff away.
Leave the crap out.
It saves time.
Sort of.
Tea? sometimes. Wine? YES.
Hi Sandra, I don't put anything away, that's why I'm in such a muddle but you must put too much away. Maybe try just putting a bit away, keep the really useful stuff handy?
ReplyDeleteHehe .. free matt board! I've been known to collect a bit of that too! Very useful! Thanks for the lovely ATC which came yesterday. It's gorgeous! Is that lovely colour "just" Glimmermist?
Well, Doone knows everything - thank goodness for rewind huh! Your journal is gorgeous!YOu aren't alone about having to make stray one offs!

ReplyDeleteThose are lovely bird cages, I've been seen birdcages a lot this week on blogs. Your journal is wonderful. Free is always great :)
ReplyDeleteThat journal page is fantastic! I have the attention span of a goldfish, which means I have to watch the videos at least 3 or 4 times before I can make any sense of it.
ReplyDeleteHappy belated WOYWW
