What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday....??

Well...I had great ideas to update my blog lots since last wednesday but unfortunately got some bad news from the docs so crafting had taken a bit of a back seat....that was until the other night! I am trying to stay as positive as possible and got told to make sure I do plenty of whatever relaxes me...well, that means the doctor has prescribed plenty crafting!!! couldn't believe it!


Here's my desk this week. Somewhere in there are two cards...a wedding one on the bottom right and one about chocolate in the middle..the orange one. Also on my desk this week are some new bits and pieces I have purchased duch as some BoBunny sticky embelishment things..some Christmas sequins, some rub ons on the left (under my new blackberry <3 ), some little gingerbread men which I'm unsure of what to do with. I've also just noticed on the far right of the image...my new stash of Graphic45 papers have creeped in the photo. I just discovered Graphic45 recently and no idea how I managed to go without it. Their papers are so vintage looking, all muted and faded...they make gorgeous cards (or do I make gorgeous cards with their papers??)



Here are my cards up close..not technically perfect I know...but I still like them. I love the quote on this one ^^^


I also saw the most beautiful Graphic45 paper the other day. I just had to get it but it's so lovely I don't want to cut it! Alice in Wonderland....fantastic!


Anyway crafters...hope you enjoyed the snoop this week. I'm off to have a raid around the lovely Julia's at the rest of the WOYWW entries.

Enjoy your Wednesday everyone,

  16. Busy, busy desk you've got there, love the two cards. I have a stamp that says "CHOCOLATE: It's not just for breakfast"!! Graphic 45 have a fantastic range of stuff, I don't make Halloween cards but I'm seriously tempted by their Halloween paper!

    Hugs
