No time....

I haven't had the opportunity to blog recently, I just don't have enough time to with my little boy running about all day. I've tried doing it via my phone but it never works?? Have especially missed my fave blog What's on your workdesk wednesday?
So here are a few shots I took without being able to share them. I was working on the sofa on an ATC and desperately trying to keep the sellotape backing bits from my son who loves any bits of paper/plastic can get hands on.

W.O.Y.W.W. no. 143

Well I think I may be one of the last on the list for this one. We've got a new computer and has taken me a while to figure everything out. So What's on my workdesk?, last week it was still pretty messy but this week I put a lot away. But I hate putting things away coz I forget what am working on.

This week I'm still obsessed with peel-offs and am trying to do some ATC'S.



Some teabag folding.....start of a new frame idea.

My Anna Griffin Evelyn storage bag is great for all my folded shapes etc.

The worktop as of W.O.Y.W.W. 143.

This is last week (W.O.Y.W.W. no.142)

The beginings of a card.

Do hop on over to Julia Dunnit's blog for more wonderful work areas and inspiration.

ATC for Going Buggy Challenge.

Here is my entry for the 1st monthly challenge at Enfys' blog Going Buggy. It is an A.T.C. and I used peel-offs including the backing paper and pro markers.

W.O.Y.W.W. No. 139 and finished things.


Here is my worktop. A week goes by so quickly but I'm glad I've been able to do some crafting in the last week. I've also even bought some new bits including a very naughty purchase. I gave in to getting a cuttlebug as it winked at me in my local craft shop. I had to empty 3 purses (don't ask me why I have 3 lol) of all my pennies to get it. I got some other sale bargains, two punches and some leather/suede embellishments and laser cut shapes. They inparticular are so nice I think will have to get some more.
The extra guest on the top is my adopted polar bear called Bobble.
I will be off now to try and visit a few fellow W.O.Y.W.W.'ers including the boss Julia Dunnit.

First entry to Ditzy's daily challenge.



This was my entry to the daily challenge on Ditzy-Craftymess facebook group. I enjoyed it but was most definately a tough challenge...mainly coz my son was trying to hinder me the best he could! The stamp I used is by Anna Griffin and is part of a set. I should have mentioned that on yesterday's post, in case anyone thought I could draw that well. I wish I could lol.

W.O.Y.W.W. no.138

Hello folks. Well I wish there was a new worktop photo for What's on your workdesk wednesday? but have been under the weather since the last one. My son and I caught colds after attending our local Sure Start centre. I did develop my sketch a little. My brain does tend to hop from one idea to another though. Sometimes I think is a curse.




This afternoon I started yet another new little project even though I have some urgent cards to finish. I just can't help it. I was drawn in by the day's challenge at Ditzy-Craftymess.This is my working page and will need to pick a favourite image to colour and mount.

W.O.Y.W.W. no.137
















I'm onto my second page of sketching, so this is the main new thing on my worktop for What's on your wordesk wednesday? Otherwise it's general supplies which have been restacked again. This morning I dug out my old doodles colouring books which are aimed at children. The cover image of book 1 caught my eye as is layered hexagons which I think will probably influence my ideas of the moment. Julia Dunnit's blog is the place to go for other workdesk wednesday participants. Plenty to look at and the boss herself is great.
