Second WOYWW

I'm getting the hang of this now, I love my craft night on Tuesday evenings so I have something exciting to show you guys. Usually I like to start a project and not stop until it's done, this means each Tuesday evening I have to get creative so I have something to show on a Wednesday. I managed it though and made some lovely cards last night.


So here is my desk. From left to right we have my wooden storage for the new goodies I have bought. I like to use things at least once before puting them away so all my new stuff goes here. We have the new PaperCraft magazine along with some new K&Co embelishments I got the other day. The three cards I made last night are here starting with a Cosmo Cricket good luck card, the paper was absolutely stunning, didn't want to cut it! My new Martha Stewart punch is there too, beside the other and some Born to Shop papers and rub ons I purchased at the weekend. A K&Co "thinking of you" card is up the back with my favourite card in the right, I love the tag on it. Some new papers and more embelishments are hiding on the right too.
My desk is a little messier this week, I like it.

Here's my Cosmo Cricket card with my new Martha punch. I love the colours on this card, used a red ink pad too...not usually a fan of red but it works here (I think).
Here's my favourite card from last night. The tag is from K&Co with some bits and pieces added to it. Paper is Basic Grey. I love the colours of this card, it's so bright and summery...although the Scottish summer is almost over! Don't think this will be the last card using these tags as I got a few more in the pack.

Now I know I'm fairly new to all of this but thought I'd show off my work space. When I sit here I'm completely in a world of my own, which suits me just perfectly!

The desk is in our spare room which is pretty much a wardrobe. You will see lots of my clothes on rails the the mirrors as the images get uploaded. I sure do love my clothes! In the drawers on the desk I have my scrap paper in the bottom, ribbon in the next, embelishments in the next and projects I'm working on in the top drawer. Under the desk is boxes upon boxes of wooden stamps, I have loads. These are split into categories such as Christmas/birthday & celebration/floral etc. In the plastic storage unit on the right I have tools and tapes in the top drawer, white card in the second, my plain cards in the middle, little embelishments such as gems, buttons, flowers etc in the next and my Bazzill basic card in the bottom. I love my desk!

Hope to have lots of new & old visitors this week, sorry it's been such a long post! Off to have a nosey around other desks!

Happy WOYWW,

  21. Thanks for all the lovely comments everyone. I'm managing to get around lots of desks this week so will hopefully be on my way to yours soon!
    Carola, thank you for the lovely comments on my birdie card..I really do love it, think it's mainly the colours, it instantly makes you happy!
    Didn't do any crafting yesterday, was hoping to get some done tonight but have a birthday to go to. Crafting weekend I think as I'm feeling a bit rubbish again...

  22. I saw that MS punch the other day at Michael's but had no idea how to use it. Wish I'd had you to show me (Grin). Sorry I'm late, but I have contracted a computer virus. It's still not fixed, but I had to make sure I wasn't infecting anyone.
