WOYWW 163(2)

 How quickly the week flies by and its that time again, WOYWW.  As you can see my space is now getting smaller, untidy girl is creeping back.   This is a fab journalling book I found which has canvas
front and back.   So I decided to start to paint F & B first, rather than last.   It is a work in progress.  So go across to the stamping ground and take part and show your desks.
 I have used Paperartsy Fresco paints, Decoart moulding paste for textureand some embossed paaper.
 This is the view from my workroom, Its a terrace, my Delilah is taking advantage of the first full suuny day we have had in ages.  this was yesterday.
another view of my garden from the terrace, nice and lush due to all our rain..

    Loving the colours of your journal and all that texture you have created is wonderful. Love the pic of the cat and also your garden, ours look like we are breeding triffids, everything is taller than we are! Happy WOYWw, thanks for your visit earlier. Anne x #9

    Love your journal cover pages. I've never had a go at anything like that yet, I might have to give it a go.

    Hi Francesca loving your journal, particularly all the texture. I have never used paperartsy paints before but love the colours. Thanks for sharing with fellow WOYWWers. Crafty hugs from your newest follower, Annie x

    Gorgeous journal cover, Francesca - the colour and texture is great. Nice to see a kitty enjoying the small amount of sunshine we've had!

    Thanks for your comment - yes, you certainly need the pink one as it's really juicy! Have you got the purple one? They are great together.

    Happy WOYWW,

    Love your garden!! That's a very nice space indeed - your cat certainly seems to be admiring it :) Love the bright colours of the journal - not for shy retiring wall flowers, I think!!

    Hi Frances,
    So glad i could catch up with you again this week. Is that sun I see in your garden??!!! You lucky thing. What a fab outlook. I have had some dylusions Inks in the post this morning and can't wait to try them, but I love the texture youve got from the paste. Might try it with the inks I've got.
    Have a great week

    Wow! What a pretty lush garden and kitty has the right idea, to soak up the sun. The journal cover is looking good. I like the texture to it, that really adds to it. Thanks for the WOYWW visit. Hope you're having a good day.
