WOYWW #225

Happy Wednesday! It is time for another What's on Your Workdesk? Wednesday. To find out what it's all about or to join in the fun, go to Julia Dunnit's blog. I am not working on any projects currently. I was gone all weekend at the Mall of America having fun at ScrapFest! I thought I would show you my other table. This table is behind my main work space. I can swivel in my chair and grab some tools or stamp, or sort through boxes, etc. Right now it is covered with some things I brought to ScrapFest and things I received at ScrapFest. On the left are some clear 12x12 folders that I brought pages to work on at a crop. Now I need to put everything away that I didnt use! In the center is paper left from a layout I made at a workshop. On the far right, in the back is stuff I found in my closet that I want to work on or needs a home.

ScrapFest

Hello and happy Monday! I had a fabulous weekend. I had a chance to go to the Mall of America and go to ScrapFest. I also got to meet 3 of my blogging buddies while I was there: Brandy, Brenda, and Maggie. It was so great to meet up in person for a change instead of cyber space. We had a great time visiting vendor booths and making Make and Takes. We went to a crop and did some fun workshops. We even did a little shopping! 

Here is just a sample of the make and takes we did at ScrapFest:

Thrill of the Hunt

Good morning and happy Tuesday!

I thought I would share the finished layout I was working on last week and posted on WOYWW. I added some flowers (flowers always seem to work on any layout) and I think I am done with this layout. I added some burlap flowers and die cut flowers and a few circles. In case your wondering, I used white Thickers for the title and recolored them with Tim Holtz alcohol inks.

WOYWW #223

Good morning and happy Wednesday! It's time for What's On Your Workdesk? Wednesday. If your wondering what it's all about, head on over to Julia Dunnit's blog to find out and maybe even join in!

Today I have a scrap page that I am trying to resceu. I found this layout in a stack of layouts that I either made or received in swaps but hadn't out any pictures on it yet. I made it just over 3 years ago. I thought I could use  it and printed some pictures. I wasn't too pleased with the layout. It I thought I could rescue it somehow by adding the title and some embellishments. Well that's where I got stuck. 

I added a burlap border, some washi tape and staples. I even moved the chipboard flower but I am still not happy with it. I might be replacing the chipboard flower with a larger flower. I haven't decided yet. It needs to sit for a while!

Carefree Days

Hello! I actually had a little bit of time to make a card! I thought this Changito stamp would make a great card for a man. I used my Copics to color it and I am not sure if you can see but I also used the Atyou Spica glitter pen on his little spatula.

WOYWW #222

I know, I am late! It's Thursday but I just got a chance to get around to posting. It's time for another What's on Your Workdesk? Wednesday. If your wondering what WOYWW is, just head on over to Julia Dunnit's blog and check it out. I do not have any current projects or anything unfinished on my desk but I do have a new toy! I bought myself a little birthday gift and isn't it just beautiful! I couldn't resist the price and I decided that it was getting to be a pain in the rear ordering prints and either waiting for them to come in the mail, or having to go pick them up. So now I can print my pictures as I scrap! It's a nice large format so if I ever got the inclination to try digital scrapbooking, I can.

Hopefully next week I'll be posting some actual projects! Hubby and I have been in the throes of a DIY home improvement project. Refinishing the kitchen cabinets and giving them a fresh, look. We just finished the kitchen island and will be starting on wall of base cabinets. I have some birthday cards to get out so I hope to work on those this weekend.
