WOYWW 143

 Desk1

 Desk 2 where I have a couple of postcards that I painted with the first coat Gesso.

I am in a postcard swap.

 This is part of the other side of the room opposite my main desk.

 A peek inside one of my cupboards - The top part was the only section I could fit on the photo.

The card I made for my son. 

I had to make the fishing rod as he loves his fishing.

No stamping I coloured the backing paper then ran it through the Cuttlebug.

I haven't done any crafting till this afternoon (apart from the card) for over a week.

Now go and visit Julia's blog to snoop more work spaces from around the Globe

My son

My son after the operation last week for a Brain Hemorrhage.

He is now home.

My two grandchildren made the Welcome Home Dad.

WOYWW 142

Not much done in the art department. you can see a glimpse of one of my sketchbooks where I have been doodling. 

My son was admitted to hospital with a bleed on the brain yesterday. He was moved to another hospital and it didn't happen today as some people were brought in from an accident and they had to deal with them. It is now scheduled for tomorrow. 

It is late Wednesday evening but not for WOYWW so take a peek at Julia's blog where you can do some blog hopping.

Stitches February 2012

A Sampling of today at Stitches, Birmingham.

      Colour direct to stamp with the Distress Markers.

 Use as many as you like they will not go muddy and will retain their original colours. The markers have about a 6 year life depending on use.

                                 

 Keep on stamping as 3 or 4 stampings can be obtained. 
Huff once to moisten. 

Heat set

 When the stamped image is heat set swipe an inkpad over it and the image resists. Then flick water for some kewl splodges. 

I have this sample

I was on crutches and only stayed about 3 hours but I enjoyed it. I caught up with a few old friends and some new ones too.

I am trying to scrapbook my Rome Holiday. The photographs are in and the pages ready for stamping

and embellishing.   

My other workspace with my journal waiting for some entries before I forget what I have done.

It's Wednesday and if you have just arrived here and wonder what the heck is going on go to Julia's Blog and snoop other desks.

Please leave a comment as I love to read them all.

Vintaj

I purchased 2 embossing folders and 1 etching die.

I have just embossed 2 blanks, one Vintaj and one I received as a RAK.

The finished piece is not showing up too well but it was embossed, painted with white paint, alcohol inks dripped on then sanded and finally coated with Glossy Accents.

It's WOYWW where we all traverse the world to spy on peoples workspaces.

So grab a cuppa and go visit the Boss Julia of this madness.

I am trying to complete a Scrapbook I started a long time ago as you can see by the year. 

It was my first visit to CHA.

 We made easel cards on Saturday at Stamp Club. I need to add some embellishments yet.
