Welcome to WOYWW…the “What’s on Your Workdesk Wednesday”  blog hop created by Julia at the StampingGround,  so hop over there to join the fun.

OK; things are getting out of hand!  This is my favorite time of year, and it is just flying by….somebody make it slow down!

 Doesn’t help that last week was particular bizarre; bought a new car; went to pick it up, but there was a problem with the camera/screen unit; so I had a loaner for the week; on a day-by-day basis.  Then on Tuesday my Step-son calls to say he and his fiancé are getting married…Saturday.  Yes...4 days! Very simple and nice; with no drama…so probably the best decision ever. 

So here is the desk, with the stencil’s I’ve been working with for building up the card stash, and some of the quirky sayings stamps I got at the show in June that I finally mounted on ez cling.  These came from Lost Coast Designs, with sayings like “You can’t get into the Ballet with a lacrosse stick and a bag of rats” and “Blessed be the cracked, for they shall see the light of day” Above those are my Crazy Birds, colored and all cut out and waiting to get placed on cards. And stacked everywhere are a few of my sayings stamps that I’ve been using on the card stash. 

Here is the wedding card I made for Matt and Rachel, as well as one of the Crazy Bird cards…

So that’s my desk, now go say Hello to Julia and see what this WOYWW phenom is all about!  Have a great week everyone!

I swear I don’t know where the time is going! We’re almost through my 2^nd most favorite month…

So, a quick shot of my desk as I’m running around opening windows before work; I was busy over the weekend, trying to build up a stash of cards for the craft fair.  Unfortunately, 3 sympathy cards I’ve made I’ve needed to send out this week.

So what you see; the pink paper up front is one of the alcohol ink ombre backgrounds I’ve made; there were 10 of those; so much fun!!  Then the pile of a few card/envelope sets waiting to get put neatly in the box.  Some ink pads lying around, and my scrap paper.  Angry bird dies still out; I’m maximizing my time by water-coloring them on my lunch hours—actually very therapeutic!!  My staff thinks I’m nuts! LOL!   A few stamps that have to go back in storage…

Oh, and the glass…I can’t believe I left it behind Sunday…it is an apple-black current wine from Fly Creek Orchard--very yummy;  I know, not a wine glass; but I figured the beer glass was more stable/durable for the work desk.

And 2 quick shots I had taken of the cards I’d been working on….

So that’s my desk, now go say Hello to Julia and see what this WOYWW phenom is all about!  Have a great week everyone!

Another Wednesday almost slipped by me! It is crazy how time is flying by right now!  So a quick picture this morning (lucky I had to go shut the windows or I would not have remembered! So real quick; some cards I’m working on for the craft fair; Thank You Pinterest!!!!  I’ll try to take pictures for next week.  Some watercolor papers are under the blocks hopefully flattening out.  And the crazy Bird Dies, which will be used on the next round of craft fair cards.

I know I said I’d start Christmas; and I did…sorta…I went through my Stamp Stash, selected 8 stamps (shockingly, 5 have never been inked….well, ok, not that shockingly…but if you don’t get them when you see them, they could be gone for good!) and even with Christmas music on I just couldn’t get into the mood…I’m sure the hot humid 93 degrees had something to do with it…

So that’s my desk, now go say Hello to Julia and see what this WOYWW phenom is all about!  Have a great week everyone!

Wow, work is crazy; completely missed that it was Wednesday last week, and I almost did the same today.  Nothing much on the desk; I had a real clean-up over the weekend; then just did a quick project which is scattered about.  So you see: Front and Center: my new Ground Espresso Distress items which arrived Monday.  There is a ribbon bookmark from one of the women in the Stamp Club, who sent it with the folded paper on the right, which are directions on making a box to hold 6 cards and envelopes for gift giving.  It will be a project on a club night.   The card is a sample I made for the Craftsy class: “Wild Cards: 21 techniques with favorite supplies.  This one used stencils…pretty cool…
