woyww #381 & art journaling

September 21, 2016 By Marit 16 Comments

Good morning everyone!  I have been sort of missing in action last weeks but I have been working on some behind the scenes projects and I spend a lot of time outdoors… we experienced the warmest September-weeks ever: 32°C (90°F) – a record in the Netherlands! For a middle-aged ‘girl’ like me, residing in an apartment with these high temperatures weren’t always fun. However, living in a delta-area sure helped enlighten the heat-waves… I seeked the waterfront! Temperatures dropped and Autumn set in this week, thank goodness.

So now I’m back to participate in the regular Wednesday blog hop hosted by Julia Dunnit!  She has the rules and regulations posted on her blog if you would like to hop along with us!  We just take a photo of our work space and blog about it and then link it to Julia’s blog.  It’s really easy and lots of fun and you can visit with so many wonderful bloggers and there is a lot of talent to see as well!

Here’s how my desk looks this morning:

That’s all for today folks. I need the rest of the day to prepare and work on a special project for a special (giveaway!) post – I’ll reveal more of it soon so keep an eye on my blog!

    Looks like you are busy even if you had to spend time at the waterfront. That tiny journal looks amazing. Very fun art chronicle page too. Happy Wednesday, LisaDV #26

    busy desk all lined out and tagged! Love the art journal page! It was really hot here yesterday and today it is a little overcast so it won’t get up to the 90 degrees they were forecasting. It was 96 deg yesterday! YUK! Thanks for sharing. Hope you have a great week. VIckie #4

    Happy WOYWW. We missed the heatwave over in the west of Wales. Our maximum temperature was only about 26. I could do with some of that now. I even had my thermal top on today! So much on your journal page. I love creating lots of layers on my pages. Ali x #33

    Your journal page is very cool…a lot of thought put into it! It’s still smoldering hot here in NE Ohio…longing for a few cooler days.
    Have a great WOYWW week!

    That tiny journal is so cute! Looks like you’ve got a lot going on on your desk, but it’s all visible at least. My stuff tends to hide under the other stuff.
    Thanks for the peek in your journal. Love the duck head!
