Another week, another WOYWW! Nothing much has changed here. It's still cold and snowy. I watched my granddaughter a lot last week, so I didn't get much crafting done. This week, I decided I needed to make some progress on my scrapbook, so here is the next page.
It's a page that highlights photos of paintings my brother made. He was quite talented! Unfortunately, that drawing/painting gene didn't make it to me. But my oldest daughter, and her niece, my granddaughter, both have it.
And here is a shot of my desk. I got a little bit more clutter put away, but it still needs work. I hope to get more done this week.
That's it for now! I'm kind of tired today, so I have to keep this short and sweet. Check out http://stamping-ground.blogspot.com/ to see some other workdesks. Happy crafting!
Nice to remember your brother’s skills on a scrapbook page. My Uncle is an artist and I always tell people the gene naturally skips a generation when they look at me and wonder what to say about my artistic potential - everyone gets let off the hook that way!! I love the hutch you’ve got there for your ink pads, and hey..I see no clutter!
ReplyDeleteFab scrapbook page! I didn't inherit the family drawing gene either, sadly! Helen #2
ReplyDeleteHi Suzanne, I've put you on my swap list. Will you email me your addy? there's a link to my email in my sidebar, and I'll send you mine by return. Love the pages, Two of my sons are incredibly good artists, and I have no idea where that gene came from, as it's never surfaced in the family before!Have a great week, Hugs, Shaz #8 XxX
ReplyDeleteNice LO. Hope you managed to rest today. Happy Wednesday Cindy #20
ReplyDeleteWhat a great page a celebration of your Brother's art work and the easel and paint palette embellishments really add to it. Thank you for sharing WOYWW.

Hi Suzanne. A lovely post - and a great page you have made there. A lovely tribute. It's not art skills but music in my family. Two of my great grandparents were professional musicians, and that has come right down each generation - and now through to my own grandchildren - all five of them being musical in one way or another.
ReplyDeleteTake care. God bless.

ReplyDeleteThank you for visiting me this week. I’m just playing catch up with a few blogs I missed yesterday.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely LO to record your brothers talent.
Hugs,

Ooh I had a great gpa that was a painter and I wish that gene had filtered down. that is a neat thing to document for your album too :) ~Stacy #33
ReplyDeleteI am hoping to de-clutter too but it's not happened yet. The weather here has changed completely today and it's been really warm, think I preferred it cold. Have a great woyww and happy crafty week, Angela x18x
ReplyDeleteWhat a great tribute to your brother's work Suzanne. Not being able to draw well is why stamps were invented (and why I have such a lot lol). Have a great week. Sarah #17
