Happy New Year!  As this is the first 'What's on your workdesk wednedsday' of the year I am showing a few pics. as not been able to get them on the last fortnight. I've been mainly working on outstanding ATC's and making little boxes up by K&Co. I can't afford any grip seal bags at the mo. so will make do with boxes to put my tiny scraps in. If anyone who is reading this does'nt know,Teabag Folding is my main crafty technique and there's always lots of bits of paper flying about! My baby can pick up the tiniest of crumbs so i'm having to find ways to store everything better. Please take a look at Julia Dunnit 's blog if want to find out how to take part in W.O.Y.W.W.

Am loving tape and ribbon.

Am very pleased with my new tapes that came in the mail today and Yody is too! (yes I know what his name really is). I was prompted to look around for some washi type tape after seeing a post and subsequent idea on one of my favourite blogs inkjet designs. I chose some from Superlovely to start with. They sent me some complimentary tags too. I think they're fab.

Hexagons and WOYWW no.132

I've encountered an issue with sticking my shapes together to form a hexagon medallion. As the paper is lightly glittered, is not an easy stick especially as the shape is dimensional, pulling them apart. Have tried my usual pva glue and double sided glue but I think I need to get some silicone glue as I've seen people use it for glittery card.
Dimensional view.

Papermania stamp I want to try on the papers.

I've been faily busy each day with some tea bag folded hexagons but progress is slow as to the finished projects. I started with some scrap paper I got cheap from a craft show but it looked a bit worn so searched out my smoother papers in christmasy colours. The next step is to stamp onto the papers first before folding, and I have a stamp in mind by Papermania.

WOYWW No.131

Here is my work area for today's What's on your workdesk wednesday? See here for more information.
Well not much has happened on the craft front. I've just cut up some squares from old giftwrap for Tea Bag Folding, using a fiskars paper trimmer. It's buried at the bottom so my bubba can't try and grab it. I've photocopied some designs to see how can develop them more without having to go through the techniques used. Today want to complete my ATC circle journal pages to post. I started it 2 months ago but things get put away and forgotten about often in my place. Oh the shame....

Blog hopping and candy....

I am enjoying blog hopping after yesterday's participation in WOYWW (no.130). Thank you to anyone who has left a comment for me. I doubt will be able to get round all the blogs with a one year old vying for all my attention but will look at lots.

Jude at Crafts-International has some blog candy up for grabs (see above). Is well worth a look.

There's a blog I like called Stamping Ground and it has a feature called Whats on your wordesk wednesday? I like the idea of being able to see and share what crafter's are up to, so you can see my share for this week
