A Fine Afternoon. WOYWW157

                                 
I'm a bit late with my WOYWW today as have had quite a busy day. The afternoon proving to be far more enjoyable than the morning which was spent catching up on a bit of housework after a rather lazy Jubilee bank holiday. Thanks again to Julia for hosting the WOYWW on her Stamping Ground Blog. The ATC swap from last week was great fun I have just one more to put in the post and have received some lovely ones so will do a separate post to show these off later in the week. So what's been going on today, I had a great big tidy up after the chaos of last week. Note photo number 1 completely clear table! Not quite so clear now as my lovely friend Sandy from Sandy's piece of Heaven came round to play. It was my turn to set the activity so I decided that we would have a go at making paper feathers. I found great tutorial here at Todolwen there are some lovely ideas on her blog well worth checking it out. We added colour to ours with Distress inks and sprays by Dylusions and perfect pearls. Very absorbing and fun to do. So happy WOYWW to eveyone have fun x

These are my feathers, not bad for a first attempt, I'm looking forward to having another go at this.

  10. I adore those feathers! How they glow with the rich coloured inks and Perfect Pearls. I simply must try these - I've just found the original tutorial and will leave a comment with her too. Simply amazing.
