It has been a relatively quiet week all things told. I was house bound due to the weather until last Friday when I ventured out and went to the dentist. Nothing horrible just a routine cleaning and checkup for my upper denture. I had such horrible teeth as a child that it came as no surprise two years ago when I was told I needed the upper plate. I have been having a flare up of most of my autoimmune issues this past week along with the on going back pain from the surgery so I have been staying in and staying warm...haven't done much in the way of arts and crafts.
Enough about me...my desk is a mess for sure!

| a wide view of my desk all a mess. I have been working in my journal a little bit. The cart is all my journaling paints, inks, etc. I have 3 such carts I roll about as needed! |

| laid out a few things from my last shopping trip.Found those travel tins with brushes and sketch pencils for 60¢ each rather then the $6 they originally sold for. The magazine Crafts Beautiful had that free stamp set...I had never heard of the magazine but had to have those 'free' stamps. |

The Creativeblock-StampersAnonymous group I belong to had a swap this past month 3 for 3 tags and a free stamp from Stampers Anonymous! I like this old vintage style stamp a lot! I have several men facing forward this is the first turned away! The challenge this month is to use the stamp on the tags (3/3) and the challenge is to keep them flat to mail all 3 in a #10 (legal size envelope. Some of us are guilty of using a lot of embellishments and it really runs up the price of postage. These are the tags I received and the stamp...
