Hello Everyone
Happy Wednesday, Whizzday and WOYWW to you all. It's show and tell time again though, as
Julia, our Queen of Snoops, will be pleased to learn this is going to be fairly brief - there's not a lot going on today.
Apologies, the lighting isn't too good this morning. All that sunshine I've been boasting about recently - it's gone! So what's on my desk? Well, there's the permanent residents - the usual box of all sorts of bits and bobs at the back and the album I should be working on - it's there to nag but I'm quite effectively ignoring it for now. Centre front is a pile of scraps and dies just waiting for me to be inspired. The dies are all of various reindeer, pulled out for Sunday's Christmas Card Club theme. They will be put away for now - I'm so over Christmas in June already! To the side is the pack of holiday photos. It's not like me to be so quick of the mark but I couldn't wait to see the photos from the crop - and they are absolutely brilliant! Happy day. Hardly visible at the back by the keyboard is a new ink spray - this one is a gorgeous coral shade. Looking forward to trying it out - maybe on something in that pile of scraps. Oh, and through the square window, into the garden, there's just a glimpse of our fabulous black elder tree in full bloom - appropriately named 'Black Beauty' it's doing us proud.
I received this happy mail this morning.
From
Marit, Marit's Paper World. Marit was my PIF for the tenth anniversary ATC swap and she's very kindly sent me in return one of her fabulous ATCs, a very informative leaflet illustrated with examples of her mixed media work and a fab postcard too. Even the envelope is amazing - handmade from what I'd guess is a magazine page - recycling at it's best!
Before I go, here's a photo of my cart.
Now home to the crop bear who has now become my constant crafting companion. Still not named her yet. I did think of Tenna, for the 10th anniversary, but on reflection I don't think it's appropriate for one so young :). So then I thought of Cropper but, again, I'm not sure. Cupcake has been suggested - she has cupcakes on her back - but I don't know. Decisions, decisions!
No book today. It's not that I haven't been reading/listening - a lot in fact - but I think this post is long enough today.
Thanks for dropping in, take care and have a wonderful WOYWW day.
