WOYWW

Back to normal this week - Nice and messy!!

I visited Jo Firth-Young and Banana Frog Blogs last week and this and my sister gave me the kick I needed to make some cards. (because i have been buying them - gasp!!)

The card at the back is my entry to this weeks Sunday Stampers Challenge on Hels Sheridan Blog, there's Candy to be won and the theme is Gold....Check out the link on the side of my Blog.
The other card is work in progress and inspired by Banana Frog.

Two new additions to my craft family this week.......My first ever Martha Stewart Punches and Banana Frog stamps....I love them all!!

The nail varnish bottles are "Silkies" - not sure how I feel about these at the minute...I think I need to have a bit more of a play :( and last but not least, the piccie on the windowsill is my Granddaughters first nursery school photo - I can't believe she is 3 already!!!

I think that's everything covered except to say a big thank you to all of you who left lovely comments last week. I'll be around this evening and definitely tomorrow evening (as it took me two nights last week to get round everyone!!) to check out what you've all been up to!!!
Perhaps our "Queen of Snoop" could make every Wednesday a Bank Holiday.......I'm sure she has the power!!!!

See you later..... :)

Happy Snooping!! xx

P.S. If you've arrive here on the off chance and are wondering what's going on hop over to Julia "Queen of the WOWWers" blog to find out what it's all about. Link is on the side of my blog.

I like your desk with the shelving in front of you. You can display everything and get inspired with all your craft tools and art materials. I have mine in boxes and sometimes I forget about them! Patsy from

Very interesting wander around your desk - lots to see and nose about in. It looks as if you might be like me, and enjoy watercolouring with your distress inks? And I spy some Studio 490 stamps at the back there - that set is next on my hit list!!

Perhaps the Queen of snoop could also have a large word with Mr Blogger ... he has been preventing me from commenting on blogs on and off for two days ... at this rate I will be 102 before I get around everyone :0)
Good to see your desk this week ... for the ... erm third time :0)

Your space looks wonderful. I think you've got the perfect balance between mess and tidiness: not so tidy it doesn't look creative but not so messy you can't work! Congrats.
