WOYWW

I love What's on Your Workdesk Wednesday time...... a fabulous excuse to be nosy and visit lots of crafty spaces. Here's mine, taken at 7 this morning.....


Relatively tidy for me!! Aside from my usual gubbins, you will spy......

My ATC swap folder bottom left, with a few swaps left from a meet of Midlands Docraft ATCers I went to on Saturday.

Also from said meet, a lovely little goody bag and notelet set made by the smashing Frankiesue (top centre in green and lavender),one of which she gave me and the other I won in the raffle.

Immediately to the right of those goodies you'll see a little stack of ATC backgrounds cut up last night from the example sheets I made for my Smacking acetate technique demo at the meet (I made them and then forgot to take them with me, d'oh!!). Plus there's a gorgeous intact piece in the centre of the picture in red and orange.

Also in the centre- a mini chipboard album/book I'm making for my nephew's first birthday- pages all covered, just got to finalise my photo choices- and an ATC made with my latest Stampotique girly stamp.

The best thing on my desk this week is slightly hidden, but if you peek in between the green goody bag and my ink shelf, you'll spy a couple of wooden handles. My fabulous husband has made me some ink blending tools. I have a couple of Sir Tim's, but himself thought he could make them for next to nothing, and lo and behold, he was right! Clever boy. Just need to sort out something to store them in now.......

For more workdesks, pootle over to Julia's Stamping Ground.

  1. wow - colours are just popping out from your desk Lisa.

    I see you like ATC's - have you checked Craftrak out - something a bit similar but you track their journey on-line.

  12. Lots of lovely colour all over your desk Lisa, looks great, and the homemade inky things are superb too, my Hubby made me some crafty ribbon storage things for a Chrimbo present so I was dead chuffed about that. Are you originally from America? I ask because you describe yourself as "Mom of 2"!

  19. Your husband is very clever and those handles are super. I bet they are a LOT cheaper than ones you can buy. Looks like you have a lot going on, ATC wise, too.

    Sorry I'm late getting here. Hope you had a great WOYWW.
