WOYWW #219 - where to put the journal pages ...

A cheerful hello (well, I try :-) still half asleep actually ...) to all my visitors, the deskhoppers all around the world (if you wonder what the heck I'm talking about please have a look at Julia Dunnit's blog to learn about WOYWW) and of course to my faithful followers and commenters, you know who you are :-)

Thankfully it's the last day at work for me for quite some time, finally I have some days off. I desperately need them, to be honest. Anyway.

You came (I assume) to see what's going on on my desk aka dining table.

I was thinking about how I could assemble the pages I did for the great Alpha Challenge over at the Craft Barn blog. I really enjoy very much to join in that challenge - all the backgrounds are made with the gelli print plate and a few posts back you can see the newest addition. Well to not cover too much of the pages or even punching holes into them I thought I could use tab die cuts. On the pic you can see the first page I made (letter V - vanity) and which is still one of my favorite pages. The covers are made with some halloween paper and I'm planning to stick letters onto the front, you can see them above the half finished journal. I sprayed them with various sprays and still can't decide if I should cover them with glossy accents or what else to add :-)
On the right you can see a soap bar :-) my daughter 1 brought from Italy for me. Actually I don't know why it's still there, but it smells exceptionally good ...
The pink thing there is my first ever attempt to carve a stamp from a rubber on my own. Since I can't draw a thing I used a stencil, hope that doesn't break the law against copyright.
Well, that's it :-) Coffee is not on the pic, but it is there somewhere :-D

Have a wonderful day all of you and happy WOYWW!

Cheers, Suzanne xx
