WOYWW

Hello and thank you for visiting my workdesk this week. As you can see, not a lot going on as have just completed an ATC swap for Quirky Crafts, sorted and posted back to the recipients yesterday.

Coaster now in use with coffee cup in place. What else? New Penny Black stamps, trusty craft knife, DST and palette for using watercolour crayons (bottom left) and my new best friend - Stone Gray Stazon. I do use black but have always preferred timber brown until I tried Pippa's gray the other week and really like the effect that wasn't too harsh. There in the centre is a mini canvas that I painted cream and stamped in a tulip pattern in red as a trial of some artwork for our newly decorated bedroom. Although I filled the back it still didn't print too well - I'm sure I can add a few other bits and change it's purpose!

Please note Julia that the tidy up didn't last too long and I have gone back to the push aside method again!

Thank you for all your lovely comments last week especially about my coaster and I hope you enjoy visiting again.


I have just taken a close up of this decoration that some of you have mentioned in the past. It is a bookring onto which I am attaching some of my favourite larger stamps as shrink plastics - this week I have added a couple of pandora style beads as spacers too - all looking rather pink and pretty!
