WOYWW #239

Happy New Year 2014 wow where did last year go so much happened in my crafty life last year.. Discovered mixed media and art journaling.. Learnt a whole new art language in 2013.. Looking forward to what I am going to learn this year..



So WOYWW today finds some dangles.. I have been practising these little dangles and they are so addictive. I did a few on an owl mixed media page a couple of weeks ago and had trouble stopping. So I just started doing this every time I have a spare few minutes and feel like doing something.. Its not finished still colouring in the page on the left side.  Its funny how many coloured pens I have collected and not used. So I am finally getting some use out of them. Got some new storage for my stickles so much better to have them in here, just did not realise how many I had till I started popping them in here though, need another one now.  Just on the right of the screen just popping out of view is my new design cube. I was a lucky winner of a competition over at France Papillon blog and I got to pick one of her lovely stamps and chose her wonderful design cube. I have already popped it on an art journal page, can see this is going to live on my desk and pop up on backgrounds.


Perfect way to start off a new year was a walk along the beach this morning and could not resist popping some writing in the sand..

Julia from  WOYWW gets us all together every Wednesday to have a look at desks from all over the world.. Grab a cuppa, I have mine here, and take a browse.. Thanks for taking the time to comment and enjoy the blog hopping around all the desks.


Happy New Year
Sandy :)

  19. Happy New Year Sandy! Love the artwork in your journal- fascinating! I think all our crafting stuff comes as a bit of a shocker when we start organising- I can't believe how many stamps I have that I have never used! Have a great Wednesday, Hugs, Shaz #32 xx

  25. How lovely that you've such a positive take for your 2013 art journey, and the dangles page you're working of is quite lovely. A great way to whoosh I to the new year. I had to look really hard for the stickles, but I agree, I think that storage is good and tidy.....how many does it hold?
