It is that time of week again when we share our desks, messy or otherwise, with WOYWWer and Peeps around the world courtesy of Julia (http://stamping-ground.blogspot.co.uk), our Hostess with the Mostest. If you want to join in then please pop over to Julia's place to see how.
I have had a major tidy this week so there is nothing but a clean shiny surface to show BUT I have been a very lucky girl this last week so I thought I could show you a few things. First up is a picture of some cards and a gift, all from crafty and blog friends.
Also, if you have seen my previous post, I made some flowers to send to my blog friend May, who was one of my very first followers and she was very naughty and sent me this:
What a glorious box of goodies for me to play with. Thank you again May for your kindness and generosity. There are others, too numerous to mention, but they know who they are, that I have met through Julia and the wonderful WOYWW world and every day I count my blessings to know such a wonderful band of caring crafty/blog friends. Thank you all and special thanks to Julia for making it all possible!
That's all from me folks, I will visit as many of you as possible this week but as I will be detained by the NHS (National Health Service) for a day or two next week, I may have to miss WOYWW and also some of the blogs I follow too.
If you do visit I hope you will leave me a comment, I do love to read them all and I enjoy doing return visits (if you get to me first!) .........Have a Happy WOYWW, Crafty hugs, Anne x
The cards, tags and wall hangings are all lovely...what a lucky girl you are.

Hi Annie,
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for featuring my card among the amazing other "love parcels" you have received from all your friends. You are an amazing blogging friend to so many of us and it's great to see you receive tangible evidence of how much you are appreciated.
Sorry to hear you are having something done. I hope it's a boob job or a nose job or a facelift or something exotic that we can all be jealous of. Whatever it is, I hope it's nothing major, that it all gets quickly taken care of, that you get heavenly drugs if you're in any pain, and that your recovery is swift and complete.
I will miss you. You will be in my thoughts and prayers.
Love,
Darnell
Crafters really are the loveliest people arent they? My very best friend, and several other close friends were all met through crafting. :) What lovely stash :D

ReplyDeleteYOu've gotten some nice treats there, enjoy having fun with them. Read your flower tutorial, I will have to try that. I have a Stampin up flower die that I think would work well with that technique, if I have success, I will post on my blog, with a link to your tutorial! Thanks, Barb
ReplyDeleteHi Anne, Thanks for your kind comments! But, WOW, I love that blue tag and the heart hanging. They both have lovely colours and techniques. So inspiring! (Once again, so pleased you like the skiing sheep.) Will be thinking of you next week.
