WhAts ON YOUR WOrkTop THis WedNEsdaY? #731

 I'll tell you in a minute!

Morning! Happpy WOYWW!? (Stamping Ground)What have you been up to? Well, if you popped in last week and saw the video of Maisie lost in the rapeseed, you'd know all about it as its been in papers and you may've even seen it all on TV. Crazy week. So  glad she was found (with a drone) ! Video on last weeks WOYWW

 Now, on my workbench this week is a little bit more interesting than last-because I recieved an ATC earlier on from Susan all the way from Australia! I quickly took the stamp off the envelope, coz it's lovely, (Our post offices never seem to have 'nice' stamps any more) and took a picture of the ATC so I'd have it ready for today. That's it above and below! But then, the guys coming to work on John's bikes are coming any minute now...so I might disappear.

I've pushed everything back...The piles are very high and toppling! Trying to hide what I'm trying to do... (just incase it all goes down the drain).
 

Yes, it is a Nutella jar but what is in it!? no it's not something out of Harry Potter but I know some of you will know. It's a jar filled with equal parts white vinagar and water, and added with old rusty nails, strews and bits of whatever... and left for a few days to muster and  the liquid is used to, stain your papers. Just like tea and coffee...but a little different. And you can't drink it ...just so you know! Right! I'm late posting, as the guys sorting out John's bikes have only just gone. They washed and shined the 650cc and added petrol and mangaged to get the 200cc off the ramp that was blocking the way into the garage, and put its battery on charge. Most of the tools are going off to some charity, so now the guys have gone,  I'm going to have some lunch dinner! Have a great week and if you can link me to Stamping Ground I'll love you for ever! Thank you for stopping by! UP Date, thank you Julia has linked me...

PS_AND!!!! I've found away to link! I sent my spyders corner.web address to my email...copy it using email on phone and paste that into Stamping Grounds Mr Linky (Just incase there's anyone else who needs to know that!) Have a great Crafty Week!!

13th Anniversary of WOYWW!?And ATC Swap!

  Hey! Morning! Yes, it's another WOYWW Anniversay! The 13th, and we're, us, them, me and many more, are doing an ATC Swap. All conjured up by the Queen of Blog Hopping, Julia and her Stamping Ground. The theme is Connections...so of course my brain first went, huh? 

 

And then a light come on in Brian (because I often spelt brain that way) and I thought of, The London  Under Ground connecting people everywhere. All those miles of tunnels and did you know, there's just as many under the underground almost forgotten forever. 

  I wasn't sure if we were 'showing' them  or not....so, I decided to show mine anyway, and wondered what everyone else was doing.  I've probably got it all wrong, but never mind, I had fun making them... Started off with the map, added bits of puzzle and arrows. Then thought I'd emboss them with a worldwide postage style embossing folder, of course I had to have those little icon, like on Google, showing where places are, but I only had four wooden ones, so made the rest out of card. I've also added some small stamped coggs.

 I've made nine all together...the 9th one having a different envelope as I run out of the planes and maps 12x12 paper (from The Works) I used for the others, so I might keep that one for myself.

 So! I know three of them have  already been spoken for, so if you'd like to swap, just let me know! Have a Happy Swapping WOYWW! (Hoping to join in later...can't get in at the moment)
