All Right. This is
serious…somewhere the universe went into cut time, and that is just not
acceptable! How can we only have 31 more days left in the year??? And it’s
Wednesday again, which at least lets us take a break and visit The StampingGround to explore What’s on Your Workdesk Wednesday, conceived by the wonderful
Julia!
I have to confess; not the most current look to my desk;
I took this picture when I thought I was done for the weekend, since I never
get there Monday or Tuesday nights…but then after dinner I went up to get
wrapping paper, and then finished the card…but neglected to take another
picture.
So this is the step where I’m waiting for my Colorburst backgrounds to
dry. I used Ken Oliver Watercolor paper,
as it usually stays pretty flat. I don’t
like heat setting them right away, as I think they lose some of the
brightness. That could just be me. The
one on the left is a mirror image I placed on top of the right one to not waste
any of that pigmenty goodness. The white
above will be the top layer—it is for my Sister in Laws birthday. I had tried using the straw to spread around
the gold Liquid Metals, also by Ken Oliver; sorta worked…Overall the desk is
pretty clean, as I’ve learned to move everything away when using Colorbursts. I get color Everywhere! LOL!
So here is the card a few hours later. (I've also since added a few purple and pink tiny gemstones to break up the white.) Also here is the finished Sled Blueprint card
that has been sitting on my desk for weeks.
Hettie thought up the distressed snowflakes—brilliant!
So that’s me; now go back to Julia’s to portal off to
other creative desks. Have a great week
everyone.
Wow, lovely looking desk...was just about to ask how it stays so clean when all the cold is about...and answered! lovely cards, I must say.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful cards. I love the last one - very pretty. 31 days??? OMG - so much to do, so little time!

By cut time, do you mean cut common in music? That seems to sum up perfectly how the year has sped up without us noticing! Minims turned into crochets etc....great analogy, wish I'd thought of that one! Cut common seems to cause confusion quite often, I don't mind it but my favourite time signature (geek moment here!) is 6/8....I love it!

PS Your crafting is good too - I got waylaid by music...not the first time!
Lovely butterfly die and colour burst combo.

ReplyDeleteAnd now we have just 20 days to Christmas Day, and 26 to the end of the year. I needs to have a word with Ol' Father Time....
ReplyDeleteLove the work you've done this week - the sled is too cute!
