More ATCs and WOYWW Week 159

Hello Fellow WOYWWers

If anyone is wondering what WOYWW is, it is a chance to share with bloggers all around the world, what is on our workspaces.  For more info please hop over to (http://stamping-ground.blogspot.com/) where our lovely Julia will explain all.

I wanted to show my latest batch of ATCs received from kind blog friends:



The large round picture in the top left is not an ATC but it is blog candy that I won from the uber talented Hels Sheridan. Next is an ATC from Lynn with her wonderful Doodly birds, next is a swap I did with Buttons, who did a wonderful double sided ATC.  On the bottom row is a very pretty ATC from Lottie, with a recipe for friendship included - so lovely.  Last but not least is my beautiful thistle and heather ATC in a fabulous envelope from my lovely friend Rita up in Scotland.  Thank you ladies, I love them all!

Next is my desk, which has not seen much action this week, other than my Warhol-esque wall hanging in the background (see previous post) as I have been back and forth to hospital the last couple of days for tests, X-rays and more tests.  Anyway don't want to bore you with that. 


I have been spending again, I got the Spellbinder die I have wanted for ages - Spiral Blossom One so can't wait to play with that.  I also got a couple of stamps and some matching chipboard shapes from Artistic Stamper.  And that's about it.  Hope you have all had a good week and that the weather has been kind to you (we have had two whole days of sunshine here, anyone would think it was summer - LOL).

Sorry , I am not up to doing anything like the number of visits I have done in previous weeks but I will visit as many of you as I can and leave a comment, I hope you will leave me a comment if you do visit.    I am still trying to find Julie Short who leaves me lovely messages but I cannot contact her back.  I hope she will read this.  Crafty hugs, Anne xx

  7. Morning Anne, last day of Summer today - LOL! Lovely ATC and such variety too. Had a quick look on AFTH for the TH Fall set but they just have the Winter one (like most of the suppliers I have looked at) Never mind. Although I was looking at the triple packing labels today and though they could be used for the cover of my AB on Seasons so I will be looking out for the Fall set.................. BJ#47

  17. Hi Anne,
    Thanks for visiting and for your lovely comments. Both those workshops were terrific! That mess on my desk is the project from the Paula Cheney class which I am finishing. I was really pleased to actually finish the project during the TH class. The first time ever. Not that I go to many classes, which made the whole weekend so much more special. And Sandra and I had a lovely take-away lunch beside the beach. The day was too nice to sit in a cafe.
    You've got a nice collection of ATCs there. I will do a post about mine asap. Hope you are OK?

I'm sorry to hear that something is requiring x-rays and tests ... hope they get to the bottom of whatever it is, are able to fix it, and that's over with soon! All the best, Darnell #45

    That picmonkey collage is so easy it is unbelievable. I think i could have learned it on my own...that is how easy it is!
    The blogathon has taught me so much...I did the post about the recipe...it was slightly harder but not too bad.
    Tonight or tomorrow I want to learn how to let my blog posts have the pinterest link built right into them!

  51. That's a super win from Hels, I know the feeling about not getting round many, I've not managed it recently either. Hope you are ok. Take care, am snooping still on Sunday, late but determined to get round more than I have for a few weeks! Zo xx 73
