Art journal week 10 – week

Week 10’s prompt for the ukstampers weekly challenge is: week
for week 10 you had to include:

  • list 7 things you did last week
  • provide evidence for at least two of them
  • use an old calendar as your background

For most of week I was mending the dogs toys (sewing them up after he had ripped the stuffing out of them), darning my favourite jumper (that is the wool stitched over the tear in the page), spring cleaning, numerous phone calls and arguments with a company who delivered the wrong item.  I dined out with previous work colleges, had dinner with our wonderful friends and neighbours (John & Lizzie) then on Saturday night went to see Yes Prime Minister!   The journalling did contain all 7 things but I cut it down to 6 just so it would fit better and still be legible.  The calender part is a perpetual calendar I made using a template (Inka stamps 2007)  it can be as old or new as you want.
