WOYWW 350

I'm way behind with my card making this week - and four special ones still to make before Thursday evening!! However, I had a delivery from the UPS man today and I have my latest bundle on my desk - I like to use double sided tape to attach the matching dies to the inside cover of the stamp box so they are all in the same place when I need them - this 'bundle' also has matching DSP :-)  I did manage to finish my latest knitting project off this week.  I always hate the sewing up at the end - so I'm glad to have that finished.  I have also got a bit more cross stitching done - so I'll maybe have a photo for WOYWW 351.

A couple of cards from last Fridays class are still waiting to have inserts put into them.  There are also three rolls of very glittery tape on view - purchased from the '£1' shop!! Visit the other desks by clicking on Julia's blog HERE.

A little bit of cross stitch on my desk today - a Gorjuss girl to brighten up my daughter's student house - the colours co-ordinate well with the living room - so it will brighten up a bare wall! I bought this kit at the craft fair in the NEC and I thought I'd better stitch it before going back to the one in March and buying lots more! I have just discovered that you can get tickets for free with Tesco's vouchers and this year the ticket also allows you to visit the cake fair as well as crafts, stitching and knitting!! Flights booked early and all set to go - though my daughter is unable to come with me this time so I will have to restrict my purchases to one cabin bag full instead of two :-(

The clutter to the left consists of the stamps etc I was using to make a little calendar card to send to the ladies who attend my needlecraft class, to let them know it starts back again tomorrow night.

Get Well patchwork card

I had to make a couple of quick Get Well cards today so I used LOTV paper and an image from the 'Beautiful Blooms' art pad. I can enter it into the Stampavie Challenge - 'Patchwork,' Creative Inspirations - 'Floral,' Sketchy Challenges - theme 'Anything goes' and Allsorts - 'Girly/Sparkly' - I used the Wink of Stella clear pen to highlight the image with a sparkly shimmery touch, but it hasn't shown up at all in the photo :-(
All the punches used (flower, banner, plain and scalloped circles) are from SU.

New baby

Just a couple of new baby cards I made recently using paper and images from LOTV. I was sorry to hear the art pads have been discontinued as they were just so useful for making quick and easy cards.

Evidence of some crafting on my workdesk this week - I made some new home cards recently using a Craft Asylum paper pad called Home Sweet Home, bought at one of my Hobbycraft visits when we were on holiday in Devon - we really NEED Hobbycraft to open a store in Northern Ireland - I think I will have to start a petition!! There is also a card made using my new SU brick wall embossing folder. On the right there are a couple of order of service booklets and place cards from the wedding I recently made the stationery for - everyone seemed pleased with the way they turned out - I was just glad to have them all finished as they were very time consuming to do (more photos on my FB page).  To visit the other work desks this week, visit Julia HERE.

I am still working on a big batch of wedding stationery - as the invites went out a few weeks ago, I think it's OK to let you have a look.  I work in steps so at the moment I have all the base cards scored and folded, the front panel die cut, embossed and ribbon attached.  The wee boxes to the left are the 200 bows which have yet to be attached - at least I could sit outside in the sunshine while I tied them!! I still have wee labels to die cut and attach, a strip of bling to add and the insert to do.  Then most of the process to repeat with the place cards!  To visit the other work desks this week, visit Julia HERE.
