WOYWW 179



Well, it's been a while since I last blogged.  I guess you kind of expect that from ME sufferers!  But I am back and delighted to be joining in with WOYWW again...  I've missed you!

 
 
Here is my mess desk! 
 
I have an order for 24 Christmas cards so I have been trying to get started.  To be honest there has been a lot of pushing stash from one side of the cutting mat to the other!  I have 4 done-ish...
There are a few other half done projects, lots of lists, and lots of 'stuff' as well.
 
So, no special post for my 100th post but I'm sure I will do something special soon.  Maybe 111?  Just to be different!  ;)
 
Thanks for stopping by...

  12. Hi Laura,

    Congrats on 100 posts! Way to go. I've been sporadic about blogging lately too. Sometimes life just takes over.

    I enlarged your photo and the tags look great - are they part of the Christmas cards that you are making? How great to get a special order. Although I think I'd crack under the pressure.

    Thanks for visiting me already!!!

    Happy WOYWW
    Hugs, kay #5

  13. Hi, Laura, lots of goodies to look at on your desk today. I like the snowman tags, the spool of washi tape, and the cards with ornaments on them. Happy crafting and happy WOYWW! ~ Laura #117 (Thanks for visiting me!)

  14. Lol! I just realized that after I clicked on your picture to make it bigger, I kept putting my mouse arrow on the edge trying to see higher or lower! You know it's a good WOYWW post when you do that!

    You've got some great makings for your cards there, Laura! Thanks for coming by to see me earlier. I hope you feel well enough to jump on those cards and not let them get away again until they're done! Darnell #42

  16. Sorry you've been absent because of your M.E., Laura - same here. It's a pain, isn't it. Glad you're feeling sufficiently better to do some stuff again. Your desk looks nice and busy and lived-in, though.

    Thanks for your visit, and glad you like the art journal page and the "diddy Shoshi" pics lol lol!! I have changed just a little since those days!

    Happy belated WOYWW,

WOYWW 159

Hello, Happy Whats On Your Workdesk Wednesday !  As promised a picture of last Wednesdays 'work' finished off.  Post and more photos here . This week I'm showing off the beaded ATC I made... Tricky to photograph so your getting one with flash and one without... It was all parcelled up and sent off to Queen of Desks Julia .  Here is a basic of how it was made... (lots of waffle about wefts and warps!) I use a flexible beading needle.  It is mainly 'eye' so it is very easy to thread. And delica beads which are more regular and accurate than the better known seed bead.  They are slightly more rectangular than round so they line up better. Thread your needle with the weft thread.  (The cross ways thread that weaves back and forth.)  Pick up the beads... Pass the needlefull of beads underneath the warp (tight length ways) threads on the loom... ...and push each bead up in the corresponding g

Hoppity!

Hoppity hoppity!!  :) Hopeful you have arrived here from Fleur 's blog as part of the Crafty Ribbons Easter Hop .  If not and you've found yourself here wondering what on earth I'm on about (and let’s face it J you wouldn’t be the first!!) check out the Inspirations site for all the juicy details! My project for the hop is         Easter bunting!  I cut three templates first - a triangle pennant, a bird and a heart.        Then I cut the pennant shapes from fibre ribbon, threaded them on to some 3mm satin and evenly spaced them.  I embellished each flag with some beads...       I backed the birds and heart on some thin white card and glued them to the centre of the pennants.   My supplies list: yellow fibre , pink fibre , lime fibre , 3mm satin , button box , white card, glue, beads, needle and thread.   At each stop on the hop there'll be a word to collect and a candy draw. I've got these

WOYWW & Card Deck Swap

First up is my desk ... Hmm.  Perhaps the less said the better!  I really should have a sort out but I fancy desking instead! Next I want to share my card deck swaps (deskers don't have to stay for this bit but I reckon you'd enjoy joining in with us, which is why I'm including it in this post) You can read about the swap here on Jessica's blog and sign up here .  Basically, we take a deck of cards, add paint and/or paper, then add a positive sentiment to each card.  Post them to Jessica who shuffles them and sends back 52 different cards from different artists (yes, you are an artist!) from all over the world. These few are ones I have picked out to display first.  I'll swap them round after a few weeks.  Do you like my domino pegs?  :) Thanks for stopping by.  I hope you'll at least consider joining us for the card swap - it's like a super sized ATC swap, and all WOYWW er's know they are fun! See you at your desk x
