I finished a birthday card, part of a continual order by Charlotte, who popped by with some shopping for me, my pain meds and sugar-free biscuits that we couldn't get.
I finished the jigsaw I had on the go and will start a new one tomorrow, and I've finally found the dylusions alphabet stamps I was looking for! Art from the heart have them in Harrogate, so I've put an order in for those. I feel much better when I can craft, and I really enjoy it when I can please myself like in my journal. What I put in it is up to me without the confines of a brief I can get really creative and not have to worry about pleasing someone else. As much as I love making cards, you always have to bear in mind that they are for other people. An art journal page is just for me. Yes I can and do plan out a card layout in my journal, but mainly I can just produce what I want to keep myself or I can try out new techniques and styles. Some times they work, but not always and those I can always gesso over them and start again or even bin if I really hate a page.
Right, signing off for now, stay safe, well and sane.
