NEVER ENDING CARD

This is a never ending card - with an end - I made for Koukussa Kortteihin challenge.
I have used Tim Holtz`s lost and found papers and the texts are from the novel "Ring for Jeeves". The gentleman is from my family album.

WOYWW #106

Last week was very warm - about 30°C - and this week is again quite chilly and rainy. So I have continued my art journal altered book. Here you see a spread where I practised grunge background. It looks quite pale here, but there are tones you can´t see in the pic - believe me, it´s better than it looks...! ;)
Text is quotes from a Finnish book by Leena Krohn: "Tainaron - letters from another town."

Yesterday I also got the new printer - look posting below - but it´s still in package. I´m using the old one... :)

Visit also Julia´s Stamping Ground to see more WOYWWers!

And you can see the PIF I received from Nicks on her blog!

MAANANTAIAAMUN IHME - MONDAY MORNING MIRACLE

Kaikki alkoi viime viikolla, kun vaihdoin printteriin uudet musteet. Koko kone sammui, eikä suostunut käynnistymään uudelleen. Kokeilin joka nappulaa, irroitin kaikki johdot ja liitin uudelleen - ei mitään elonmerkkiä!
Lopulta päätin ostaa uuden printterin. Niitähän saa halvalla - juuri ostetut musteet harmittivat eniten! Enää ei löytynyt uutta printteriäkään, mihin vanhat musteet olisivat sopineet!
No, tänään aamulla jyrähti ukkonen sellaisella voimalla ja niin lähellä, että vedin seinästä pistokkeen, jonka takana on tietokone kaikkine lisälaitteineen... ja kun jonkin ajan päästä pistin taas töpselin seinään, niin eikö se hemmetin printteri herännyt henkiin...

All began last week, when I changed new inks to my printer. The machine went out and refused to restart. I tried every button, removed the wires and reconnected them - no sign of life!
At last I decided to buy a new printer. They are quite cheap - I was most annoyed that I had just bought new inks! And I couldn´t find a new printer, which would be working with the old inks!
So, this morning here was such a loud thunderclap that I unplugged the whole computer with all its accessories... and when I, after a while, again put the plug to the wall, that damn printer woke up alive...

WOYWW #105

Yes, I know... didn´t have much time to visit your blogs last week... sorry!

But I want to show you how the yellow spread from my art journal book looks today.
And then I have a postcard size "bird"... again copied from Teesha Moore. I liked these birds she had made - but somehow this became more a harpy!
Visit also Julia´s Stamping Ground for more workdesks!

And new pics from my little garden

The newist one...

WOYWW #104 - Happy Anniversary!

Hello WOYWWers! We have a warm and beautiful day here in southern Finland and that´s why I have an outdoor "workdesk" today!

I also started an altered book - kind of art journal inspired by Teesha Moore. I have shamelessly copied her style while I´m seeking my own... :) It´s a kind of diary and contains such personal things, that I have blurred one spread! (there MAY be someone who understands finnish...)

EDIT There seems to be problems to leave comments here! If you like, you can mail me to tuire.flemming@wippies.fi
And I also forgot to link to Julia´s Stamping Ground for more workdesks!

And this is the next spread - still under construction!
