Back in work has certainly put pay to my creativeness this week.............not really sure where the week has gone and the weekend was jam packed. Saturday was hubby's birthday and Sunday Father's day (there seemed to be lots of children around some with their partners some with friends and they all turned up at the same time - we have 4 and a granddaughter..phew!) but best of all my gorgeous daughter bought tickets for me and her to go and see Simply Red in concert in Cardiff on Sunday night -how lucky was I?? Mick Hucknall was "simply" amazing!!
So this is my desk and it looks the same as what it did on Sunday night when I came in and dumped my program and tickets. The two boxes on the side are bits and bobs that need sorting, so lets hope I find some creative time this weekend!!
Thanks for all the lovely comments last week and I'll try and catch up with you all over the next few days. Happy snooping!!

Wife, Mother, Grandmother, full time job and a very frustrated crafter.......Where can i buy time???

WOYWW
Hi Guys.....Thankfully feeling a lot better this week the only downside now is I'm back in work!!! On the upside though......i can fetch my Dad from hospital today - yipee!! It's been a long three weeks and I didn't think at the time he would be coming home so soon.
Ok so here's my desk......
Lots of mess this week - my sister will be proud- Paint left to dry on my craft mat, my Sunday Stampers project and work in progress for my SCD Something Completely Different challenge (not much chance of me finishing THIS by Thursday!!!)
Anyway ............... Hi ho hi ho it's off to work i go..............but I'll be back later to check on all you little "Snow Whites" to see if you've been tidying up or creating!!
Thanks for all the lovely comments last week you are all amazing - see you laters!

Sunday Stampers Challenge
One Way 2 your Dream...
This is my entry for this weeks "Sunday Stampers Challenge" over on Hels Sheridan's Blog.....I cannot believe I've completed it on a Monday............ normally I'm last lap on a Saturday!!!
I coloured a tag with Tea Dye and Stormy Sky DI's and using the Tim Holtz flourish mask.(i love this mask) The "One Way" stamp is Paper Artsy and I'm not sure where the "your" letter stamps came from. The DREAM is off a Darkroom Door word strip and the 2 is a chipboard piece, all finished off with a Tim flower........Hope you like it!!
Anyway the theme this week is "Numbers" and Hels has lots of lovely candy to give away as it was her 40th Birthday on Sunday. Check out the link on the side of my blog and join in.
Happy Crafting!!

WOYWW
Well I had a great time last Wednesday and all the AC's were fab.....It was just what I needed!
My Dad is doing OK, but it's going to be a long road......tiny steps and all that....... and I have to say a massive thank you to all of you for your lovely comments and best wishes ....when you are feeling low it really does mean a lot that so many of you took the time out of your busy schedule to leave a thought for me and my family. It was really appreciated.
OK, onto the job in hand....Hospital visiting and being diagnosed by a registered GP with a "weird virus" yes I did say "weird" (my Mum thinks it's a new medical term for - I haven't got a clue what's wrong with you!!!) there's not much been going on in my craft room this week!!
My Son's friend was 9yrs old this week and I'd promised to make him a LEGO Clock - seemed like a good idea at the time (February)!!! I did manage to drag myself out of my sick bed on the weekend and finish it for him and here it is....He loved it!!
As for my desk....a blank canvas waiting for me to mess it up - yipee!!
I've been told by the GP to rest, relax and not to go to work for the rest of the week and there is nothing more relaxing than sitting in my craft room when DH is in work and my gorgeous Son is in school.........So I'm off to follow the Dr's orders for the rest of the week and hopefully you'll see a fabulous messy desk next week!!
A big massive thanks to Julia and all you fab WOYWWers out there who have made my week bearable.........Wednesdays are definitely the best day of the week!!

WOYWW - Happy Birthday!!
Happy Birthday to all you WOYWWers and a special Happy Birthday to Julia who made all this happen....Thanks Julia.xx
Here is my WOYWWAC.............................
This picture will hang proudly on my craft room wall, just in case I need a reminder of what I have to do on a Wednesday!!!
Please accept my apologies for not leaving any comments last week. My Dad collapsed and knocked himself unconscious and is in hospital. He is currently stable but has a bleed on the brain and many other complications.
I will do my best to visit everyone on this very special occasion but it might not be until the weekend. Looking forward to seeing everyone's creations.
