It has been a while since I last participated in WOYWW and I have a million reasons I can come up with but I think I will spare us all the excuses and just get on with it...
My desk today...
I am in the process of making the granddaughters a couple of canvases so they can have a Grandma painting as my oldest granddaughter Teresa calls it. The snowman when finished will have Teresa's name on it. The music canvas is for Hannah and will have a gingerbread girl dresses in jewels and all sorts of finery! Hannah is Miss Prissy while Teresa is our more analytic girl.
I have done a lot of crafting and journaling but can't find pictures right now so will go with what I have!! This next picture is of a calendar swap I am participating in. Not a good picture because the stars are stenciled on with glass bead medium. Looks fine in person but not so hot here!
Made a few new cards for Christmas...still don't have a Christmas letter or cards addressed but...I am working on it! These three cards are from the
Close to My Heart collection called White Pines. I can't send cards with what I call "naked" envelopes so I usually stamp something on them!
Next is the Close to My Heart scrap book pages from the White Pines Collection: They always come with two pages to do and and I found the third one online... It is a page set done by another CTMH person. I am glad my daughter got into this business cause I love scrapbooking memories.

ReplyDeleteGreat to see you back! I did think about you.
ReplyDeleteI love your cards and the fact you decorate the envelope too. The scrapbook lay-outs are fab! Ready for all the holiday photos.
I'm sure you enjoyed the meal with your DD.
Have a good week,
Lisca

ReplyDeleteIt's been a long time since I played in WOYWW, too, but I've been very busy posting every day. I adore those canvases and the cards. I like your idea of no naked envies, so I'm going to try that when I finally get around to creating my Christmas cards, which may be this weekend.
ReplyDeleteGlad all is well, and that lunch sounds wonderful, including the coffee! Happy WOYWW from #1.
Hope you had a lovely day putting up your lights yesterday. Fab LOs to show us today.

Hey, it's good to see you again!! Love the snowman - make sure we see them both finished! I don't have a thing ready either, a pile of cards hopefully enough, waiting to be written. Gifts purchased? Not yet.... Helen 3
ReplyDeleteHappy Belated WOYWW. I had a long break in joining in with the deskers too - and still do not get back on here every week, mainly because I have not been doing much crafting. Busy with Tarot studies and the website/blog. I really want to get some scrapbooking and canvases done - so many photos waiting to be used. I love your cards. I have not made many cards this year, but will be getting in my craft room tomorrow whilst hubby is out cycling. Ali x #39
