WOYWW - 22 February 2012

Wednesdays are now something to look forward to with the weekly visit to the Workdesks of other craftaholics (Whats On Your Workdesk Wednesday)... Pop along & visit Julia at Stamping Ground, sit down with a cuppa and have a look around a wide selection of creative workdesks.

As for this week here is mine...


This is actually what my desk looked like when I had finished last night, on the right are a number of bits cut out from a selection of card magazines (included in the pile are Mother's Day Quotes, Techniques & examples of cards that I like the look of) these will be added to my inspiration book - I really must get around to doing a post on this book as it has been mentioned several times.

On the left is a open copy of the 'Lets Make Cards' magazine from last month, the magazine came with a quilling tool & papers, so I decided to follow the instructions and have a go.  I had created a card using the Little Claire Designs 'Butterfly Tree' stamp, but the card needed 'something' else to finish it off.  So I though that I would have a go a creating 2 butterflies.  The plan is to then put them at the bottom of the card.


So that is the content of my Workdesk this week.  I'm off to have a look around at other desks.

  13. You did an excellent job at that quilling! I like how you have so much at your fingertips, including the new pile of cut out parts and mother day inspiration. You should share your inspiration book with us as that might be inspiring to us to create our own.

  16. Your butterflies look great. I have a friend that does quilling. It always amazes me how thin strips of paper can turn into something so beautiful.

    Your desk is very inviting!

    Happy WOYWW

  20. Your card looks really pretty Helen, the little butterflies are going to look great on there too.
    I had a go at quilling once and found it so fiddly that I’ve never tried again, but you’ve done a great job.

    Thanks for stopping by this week.

    Happy Crafting!
