What's On Your Worktop Wednesday!? #839

  Happy WOYWWednesday Peoples... Yes, I know...I#ve missed a few weeks...once more I've been a ghost...disappearing into the night and other places but not here....in Blogland. Never mind. No one actually notices! As you can see, my workbench in my craftroom's just the same....piled high with stuff I still haven't got around to finding homes for... And that brown Amazon, wrapping paper?? Now, what could I do with that???

 First thing this morning....I was stamping, colouring and diecutting bits out to 'repair' the mistake I made on a friends birthday card last week... shoved it all in  box (along with some dog treats) and scooped myself off to her place so I could fix the inside of the card... What card? this card....

 ...and down here on Yvonne's dining table! 

I added a few more things! I think it was worth it, don't you!? No one will ever know!  So that's what I was doing before 9 this morning. I have a trellis to go finish painting now...(and a lawn and hedge to cut) And I think the bathroom floor could do with a steam wash! ....and of course, there's all the mess I made redoing this card! It's all go here! Thank you for stopping by! 

Happy late T stands for T day on Tuesday and 2nd on a Tuesday too!

 

  Just a very quickie T Stands for Tuesday....a 'short post'... as isn't really Tuesday and I'm all completely up to my eyes in... 'STUFF' Tom's (SIL) come to my rescue again with another yummy looking coffee stop over from one of his very long bike rides, I think he had a cake too, but he ate that! AND! I found a 2nd on a Tuesday, so will join in with that too....seeing I can't link up with T for Tuesday! 

 A short post...

And here's my hot chocolate with fluffy milk....although, this isn't the one I just made, as I've already drunk that!

It's Time for T stands for Tuesday and The 2nd on The Second

 Morning or Evening fellow T Stands For Tuesday. As I type this, it's sort of just gone midnight here, our clocks went back over the weekend, so it's really only just gone 11 on Monday evening, so, I'm early in a Time Travelling sort of way! On my desk there's a nearly empty Tea mug with a cat doing her exercises, this one is 'Lunges' There's also few die-cuts from some goodies I found at the Charity Craft shop. I'll use them later.

Not sure if this is a Tyrannosaurus or a Tarbosaurus! But he was very big and roared very loudly! Taken at The Eden  Project. It's very hot and steamy down in the Cornwallish Jungle!

I don't think Mr Jinx would've liked him! "Giv me Treats!"

And a Blast from the Past to celebrate the end of Oc'tomb'er, when I was on the Quirky Crafts DT Team. "Giv Us A Treat!" this was for 2nd on T Second post ( 2nd on The Second at Altered Book Lover)  but I couldn't find anything on a Tuesday on the 2nd back in the past, or anything to include a rainbow... but there is red and orange and yellow in it! So this was the closest I could get! This one was on a  Monday in October 2014!

Now,  back to this month.... The picture above shows us at a Town meeting we went to. That's us with our backs to you!  They want to build 170 odd houses, bungalows and flats (flats??crazy!!)in a small field in a tiny country lane near a Nature Reserve. "No way, José”!

The Grandkiddies are now out of self isolation! They're feeling fine and  are having lots of fun!

And, did you know? It's only 53 more days till Christmas!! Happy November!! Have a great 'T For Tuesday' day. And a 2nd of a Tuesday too!! Thank you for stopping by!

 

 

 

A Saturday Always Freebie...Simply Red...

 Here's an always freebie....sorry I've been 'not here' Should be back to 'normal' soon! Thank you for stopping by!

I nearly forgot....It's Tuesday!

  Thank you to Jo,  who reminded me with a 'happy T day' earlier  ...and seeing I was else where last week and didn't make it, I did take pictures this morning...boring ones but never the less...pictures!  Anyway! After forgetting to post and link, as I was out with Frankie, hope everyone had a Happy T Day! Pop over the Elizabeth and Bleubeard for more details....My picture shows my usual drinks, including my mini hedge trimmer...I nipped out to cut a few leaves off the hedge before the garden bin men turned up...(I like a full bin!) 

 

 I had some more very brown eggs  and a couple of ducks eggs from my neighbour... So had to have a boiled egg and then...

Tom (sil) posted that he'd just visited a new 'bike' cafe on one of his very long bike rides and stopped off for a mocha and a cheese and onion toasted sandwich, which was well worth the stop! 

  

I took Frankie out again, and we stopped for a Hot chocolate and a shortbread cake...but Frankie ate that before I could take the picture! I think he thinks that's funny!! 

 

Have a great rest of the week...Happy T day! Thank you for stopping by! 

Happy Bird-day! To Yvonne!

   Yay! I made a birthday card! The inspiration actually came from the 'birthday girls' garden. Just outside her kitchen patio doors is her bird feeder. Always busy with birds and squirrels! I did forget to take a picture, but while I was there over the weekend, I managed to take some photos. (Which was why I've been 'not here' all week...very busy, doing things)

 As you can see it's by Lawn Fawn, just right with all the birds and squirrels on the real bird table! I should've added more bitterflies there are 'billions' of them in the garden!  

The grass and the sky were made with Tim Holtz Distress Oxide  in blues and greens using a stencil and flicking water and added die cuts. Everything else was coloured with Promarkers. Then I just added the birds and feeders where I wanted them...Seeing the feeder is waaay bigger than the bird table I tried to make that look like it was closer and in front...There were a few mistakes, (One obvious  one, which I couldn't cover up, my dyslexia always gets that spelling wrong!)  but the rest got covered up with more birds! In side the card, I've added Yvonne herself, as a mouse, using her binoculars! That's it for now! I'm not here again...Thank you for stopping by!  

ATC's made with Spyder's Banner printout

   As promised...(this is a quickie post) here's what I did with the printout of my Spyders Corner banner....Six ATC's. Not finished yet...still want to add something to them! I'm thinking printing out a few of my favourite digis, very small, and adding them to the front. The paper they are laying on, I called 'Noise' was also an 'always freebie', a little while back, and that's going to be a small journal cover. Thank you for stopping by! Go careful today....it's Friday The 13th! 

Happy Heavenly Birthday John

Happy Birthday John. You always said, you'd be 'Forever Young'. Miss you sooo much. I wanted to swap 'we' for 'I', because there is no 'we' any more...

 

WOYWW #836 and a Late T for Tuesday

 Evening! And a happy WOYWWednesday to you. And a belated T for Tuesday! I, me, myself have actually been crafting! (yes and covering more boxes, and watering and weeding and cutting hedges...it's all in the picture) but no, real crafting...trying to make a quicky Birthday Card but but BUT! I suddenly had dogs to do. Yay! (get out of the untidy messy crafty house and into the sunshine!!) Above crafty picture is what I've been doing... colouring some Lawn Fawn stamped images ....a bird table with birds and squirrels. Well, that's what's in the garden of where I've been House/dog/sitting, with Remi and Bronte, so I thought that would be a good idea for a card... Just gotta make the background (sky/grass, you know) 

 The Lawn Fawn video of this set, has the bird table hanging from the tree....and the feeder (which in real life should be a lot smaller) on a pole...o....kay... So, I'm trying to make my feeder be in the front and the bird table in the background...anyway! we will see when I've finished it!  I've just gotta go hunt out my 'clouds' stencil...and some blue ink....

 Haven't found my clouds stencil yet, but I did find last years WOYWW ATC cards...(5 left out of nine) I've called them, 'A Walk Through The New Forest' and I can't even remember making them! Odd that I haven't squeezed a New Forest Pony in there somewhere!

 First thing this morning, I had a play with Frankie...He has the biggest mouth ever! Always smiling!! (It's a wonder he doesn't swallow the ball!) 

I haven't forgotten T for Tuesday... here's my drinks...Kombucha, which is green tea, ginger, turmeric and black pepper...The other is my own mix of fruit, spinach, Kefir, Almond Alpro and my fruit and nutty breakfast, which also has Kefir on it and the same almond nutty Alpro. Pop over to  see Bleu Beard and Elizabeth for so much more! Tomorrow my eldest daughter's taking me out because it'll be hubby's heavenly birthday, to stop me, hopefully, having a melt down...So That's it from me! Have a great WOYWW! Bye For Now.
