WOYWW 261 - What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday

Good Morning Fellow Deskers ...

... and all,

Here we are , one week on from the big 5-year WOYWW anniversary and I'm still chasing my tail! Still trying to get some crafting done, still not making much progress, still too many distractions and still wishing an extra couple of days could be added to my week.

So here's what's on my desk this morning. Looking significantly better than last week but there's still too many works in progress and not enough finished items to show you. In fact, the only finished pieces are the two fabulous 5-year celebration ATCs received from BJ, on left, and Cindy, on right. You can see mine, together with the matching cards, on the right, not quite finished yet ... they will be in the post just as soon as they are, I promise. On the right is evidence of one of the distractions I mentioned earlier. I've enrolled on a class on watercolouring for cardmakers - more in a later post - so what you can see is some of the inks used and a couple of my pathetic attempts. Hopefully I'll improve with practice.

Another of the distractions! This is the view from the craft room window showing the newly planted alpine/scree garden and the newly dug out long border ... another work in progress. Yesterday we planted out an area of it with plants that are pink flowering ... other colours to follow :) The chair, in one of the hot spots, is where The Boss snoozes for much of the day.

And talking of The Boss - here she is, another distraction. I was all set to take a photo of the desk when she hopped up wanting to snuggle up. As you can see, I'm not too practiced in taking selfies :) She has been a very poorly old girl this week, an ear infection necessitating two injections from the vet, so she is feeling a wee bit sorry for herself and needing/demanding extended cuddles.

Not sure why I'm telling you this? Well, it's because of the weekly bloghop around the world's crafty desks brought to us by our amazing Head Desker, Julia, over at the Stamping Ground ... pop over here for a fuller explanation and, if you haven't done so already, do join in ... you'll find Deskers love nothing better than to peak at other folk's desks.

To close, I wish you all a happy WOYWW and a wonderful week ahead. As always, I hope to peak at as many desks as possible ... hopefully, there won't be too many distractions today :)

Happy Crafting,
