WOYWW #108

Today is Wednesday and Julia has posted the WOYWW #108 on her blog Stamping Ground where all us crafters/artists gather each week to take a trip around the world from the comfort of our computer chairs. Click on the link and see what we have to offer. A legal snoop! WOW!


My desk has the lasted Options project kit from Pinecone Press that I picked up at the get together Tuesday. It has several different projects you can make using the kit. These kits are a lot of fun cause they contain everything you need to make the project and it is a no brainer cause your Mojo doesn't have to be present for you to create something. Usually I will start with a kit get enthused by it and branch out into something totally different.




Thought you might like to see a different view of the same desk. I really have it easy working from this desk! You can see my new drawers and the awesome bargain paper rack. If you look close there is the Clip It UP where some of my bling, flowers, buttons, and other embellies live. At the bottom of the picture is the new Stampin'Up! cattie that starts July 1 here in the states. Lots of fun new things and awesome stamps in this one.



I had scheduled a post on Sunday to come out today but for some reason it posted yesterday so today it will be my desk again. It has been a busy week crafting, gardening, and living. Besides the tags I made a frame for a favorite picture I took of my husband on a trip to Palma de Mallorca.




With all my spare time and energy I also decided to plaster the wall under the cabinets in the kitchen because I was tired of waiting for it to be done! I don't think it looks too bad!




I love all that I do but sometimes it is hard to get it all to fit in to what I can do. I felt really good the past week and it looks like I have probably done too much as I am having problems getting about tonight. Oh well! Life. I have a doctors appointment in the morning early with a new Rheumatologist who will hopefully know how to handle this darn disorder of mine so I guess I had better hit the hay. I am looking forward to seeing all the blogs tomorrow after I get out of the doctors.
