WOYWW #134

WOW it has been a busy week this past week. I can truthfully say I am glad that Christmas is over and all I have to do now is enjoy the decorations until I am tired of them and want to take them down. I usually leave them up until after the second weekend in January so I have time!

I very blessed this week because I have been very lucky this week with winning things. I won a package from Ranger Ink because I made a comment on some ornaments they were sharing with us. I don't know when it will come but I am excited cause it contains reinkers, stamp pad felt, etc. Here is a pic from their blog! and I won a pack of Whitewash cardstock from Core'dinations because of a comment and last but not least I left a comment on Neils blog a few weeks ago and my name was drawn as a secondary winner...Yay!! I am clueless as to what the prize is but it doesn't matter I am a happy camper! I love leaving comments and try to visit each of the blogs on WOYWW each week and comment, some would argue I am long winded which I can be but how will people/businesses know how you feel if you don't leave a comment?


Okay back to my desk and you won't believe what a mess it is! I haven't been in there in two days and it seems to have grown and propagated to the point it will takes me a couple hours to get it straightened around. What a mess!!! I am almost ashamed to show you the picture...
On the lower right corner of my desk are some bead boxes that I used to make baubles for my tags. My new punches my daughter got me for Christmas are there too. On the left side is a prize I won from OWSE for submitting a minibook for a challenge. I love surprizes and that was a roll of terrifically tacky tape, a package of flowers, and a paper pack! Like I said it will take a good hour to get that desk cleared off!!

Wonder what all this talk regarding desks and WOYWW is all about? You need to go to Julia's blog, Stamping Ground, and check out WOYWW and come play with us. It is a lot of fun visiting other peoples workspaces around the world without ever leaving home!

I am scheduling this so I hope it works because I have never scheduled a post before. Anyway...Hope everyone has a good week and Happy New Years!

  26. Hi Vickie, congratulations on all your lovely wins - I recently enjoyed a winning streak too and it really cheers a person up when the postie drops by with candy. Your desk probably looks like a host of others at this time of the year - it's to be expected :) We take the decs and tree down on the 6th of January - by that time we are more than ready to get back to normal. Here's wishing you health, happiness and prosperity in 2012. Elizabeth x #65

  30. Do you use ribbon a lot? I know given your photo that seems like a silly question and maybe it is, but I know that my embellishment of choice changes from time to time, so having all that ribbon right there would be great for when I'm on a ribbon kick, but not so much when I was on a button kick, or brad, of flower, etc.

  32. Congratulations on your wins Vicki, I love hearing about other people’s luck.

    Your desk is looking fit to burst but knowing you it won’t be long before you’re in full production and creating beautiful things with your new punches.
    Thanks for all your lovely comments last year and for the inspiration and support you have given me too.

    Happy New Year to you and ……..
    Happy Crafting!

  34. So pleased to see a desk that resembles what mine has been like for far too long - too messy to actually make anything on. Congrats on your winnings too.
