Another week has whizzed past and without a blog post in between, at least there is What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday to push me to make a post! On my desk today is a lovely Japanese doll ATC from Teng. We traded in ATCs for ALL, a great place for beginners to start trading ATCs.
I have finished another one of my prayer journals and I'm planning to scan some of the images to share with you. That's the first image that's peeping out from behind the Paris journal which is the new journal I've started.
My husband had a bible with a cover that was peeling off so he gave it to me and I started altering the cover by using image transfers (video tutorial here).
If you were here last week, you may be wondering about my coming giveaway. No, I have not made my giveaway post yet. Hopefully, I will get it done before next Wednesday! And hopefully my internet connection will be fixed and I can go visiting the interesting desks from around the world joining WOYWW!
Beautiful work! Love the new cover, thanks for the link to the info! Happy WOWYW! #2
ReplyDeleteEverything on your desk is always so amazing. I did a similar thing to my hubbies bible as it was falling apart (a good thing) but he wouldn't let me accessorise the cover! :(

Hi Peggy - Tengs ATC is fabulous. What a great way to showcase beautiful papers too. I can empathise with your no post between WOYWWs feeling - where do the weeks go sometimes? WOYWW Hugs to you from Helen 73

Lovely Japanese style ATC! I made an ATC today too but I don't know anything about trading - I should investigate!
ReplyDeleteHugs,

I love your journal pages and that bible was lucky you made it look good and loved again. Not that you ever stopped loving it, you would never do that. That atc is great, I love asian things and I used to trade atc's for years, gave up and focused in another direction. Find yourself a group through flicker or yahoo and start trading, you find people with atc's in their albums that are for trade you send them a message to see if you have anything of interest and come to an agreement. It really is great fun and there are some amazing artists out there in this big wonderful world of ours.
