I would like to say a huge thank you to all of you who take the time to leave me lovely comments, I do so appreciate them, it doesn't take much to keep this old girl happy but you certainly give me a big boost!
It is that time again when we take a peek at desks around the globe and see what each other is getting up to. If you want to join in then pop over and visit Julia at http://stamping-ground.blogspot.co.uk for all the information you need. It is great fun, there are some wonderful Bloggers out there, but it is addictive!
Short and sweet this week, as per Julia's gentle instructions - here is my desk (I took it late afternoon when we had sunshine - yay!) because I was not going to touch it again overnight:
You will see some Hallowe'en paper with die cut bats ready for making up, a birthday card for a relative, some mini Noel (TH die) Christmas cards that a friend asked for, some of my trusty Distress Inks, some Fran-tage and then the other usual glues, spray and implements that I have been using. Not too exciting but I left it quite messy. The weather was so lovely today that DH took me out for lunch and it was lovely, so no crafting for me today.
Looking forward to seeing your work spaces. If you do visit me I hope you will leave me a comment, I always do my best to return the compliment. Happy WOYWW everyone, crafty hugs from Anne x.
Hi Redanne. I so love visiting your lovely blog. When you're describing what you're up to, I feel we are having this wonderful discussion between friends. Love all your creativity and spirit! xo's Pam

I spy four lovely cards on there. The orange one looks lovely - rich colours - and the pleated one looks pretty. Nice "C" cards too.
ReplyDeleteHave a good day (hope you are feeling much better now)
Hugs, Neet xx 29
Hi Anne,
ReplyDeleteI think the card with the pleated thingy looks very pretty. Such a busy looking desk too, mine always looks bare compared to others.
Wishing you a fun crafty rest of the week.
Cheers from Elaine #21
Oh Anne that birthday card looks super especially with the folded paper boarder. Thanks for stopping by BJ#24
ReplyDeleteOooo Anne, what a fabulous desk this morning. I love the large card at the front and the one with the bats looks lovely & bright. It looks as if you've been busy anyway. Hugs Rita xx 81
ReplyDeleteA lovely desk full of creative productivity! The bats are shaping up nicely by the look of it - and I love the subtle Noel cards! Happy WOYWW, and have a great week (hope recovery is all going smoothly)...

Hope you are well and you certainly sound happy! Lots of loveliness there with your beautiful creations.
ReplyDeleteAre you going to Warrington IKEA next week? We could meet up for a free coffee and a natter if you are. JLMK! If you ARE going to Warrington the QVC shop in Birchwood is a must for crafting bargains and Mondays it is extra discount for seniors.
Must tell you that a friend of mine used to meet up with 3 or 4 friends in the IKEA cafe and take crafting and spend half a day there!!! No one ever minded or bothered about them.

WOW busy desk! Love all the cards and things you are working on. Have a great week. Vickie #41

ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely birthday card, Annie! I'm liking the oval Noels, too!! How wonderful that you got to get out in the sunshine for a bit and a bite, how lovely to see you on WOYWW! I'm not going into work until later today, so I am happy to get my WOYWWing post and tour!! Hearts! Darnell
ReplyDeleteLove your cards, I don't do much Halloween stuff, maybe another year! Your little Noel cards look good too! Are you a Warrington girl then? Used to work there and son still lives there! Chris#111

That card is really beautiful I am getting inspired!Tamika #14
ReplyDeleteYou Have been busy and a lovely selection of cards you have there. Happy WOYWW Anne x #91
ReplyDeleteHi Anne,
ReplyDeleteI think I've seen that Noel punch somewhere.... it looks GREAT! I love the other card on your desk also.
The weather warmed up a bit the day before I had to leave. I just wasn't quite so ready for frost on the ground. Today back home it's a nice sunny day. Yipee!
Thanks for visiting me already. Always love it when you pop over.
Hugs,
Kay
I like the pile of bats there. I noticed the NOEL cards right off the bat. That is a neat die and makes such simple yet elegant cards. I love the sweet piece right in front with the creams and the teddy bear.
ReplyDeleteLove the teddy bear card at the front and all the bats. I felt much better when I got home so you will be pleased to know I opened my desk and made a card - thanks for visiting me
ReplyDeleteI like the cream coloured card very much. Very productive even if you did go out for lunch. LOL
ReplyDeleteCarol

Hi Anne, I'm having a catch up, missed this yesterday... I love sneaking a peak at your desk and those little Christmas cards are so cute! carole Z X
ReplyDeleteGreat desk Anne, love all the things on the go. I watched another episode of Vera last night, can only get the first series so far. Can also only get the first series of Downton too, can't wait for more. I really do like a good, well acted, well filmed tv show, don't really mind the subject as long as it's interesting. Can't be doing with all that reality and celeb tv though!!
